About this home
Owner is offering a $5,000 credit towards buyer's closing cost, pre-paids, rate buy down, etc. Seller providing a 13 month home warranty! If you've been looking for a well-maintained home on a large lot in Mount Dora with nearly every major system already updated, this is it. 480 Lake Forest Cir is a 3-bedroom, 2-bath split-plan home offering 1,909 sq ft on a 0.46-acre cul-de-sac lot in the Lake Forest community, just 3 blocks from the lake and minutes from downtown Mount Dora's shops, restaurants, and waterfront. Inside, vaulted ceilings, skylights, and continuous laminate flooring create a bright, open feel throughout the living areas. The split floor plan gives the primary suite (15x15 with walk-in closet and en-suite with dual sinks and walk-in shower) true separation from the secondary bedrooms. The kitchen features skylights, a built-in desk, closet pantry, and bar seating, with all appliances conveying including a 2023 refrigerator, stove, and microwave, a 2025 dishwasher, and a June 2026 washer. Major updates reduce buyer risk and add long-term value: 2018 roof (permit-backed), 2023 A/C, 2020 water heater, gutters with screens, and irrigation system. The 2-car attached garage, cedar and stucco exterior, and mature live oak canopy with Spanish moss complete the picture. The 0.46-acre lot sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in a neighborhood where homes sell quickly. No flood insurance required (Flood Zone X). HOA is just $200 per year. Wind mitigation report available. Located approximately 5 minutes from downtown Mount Dora and 3 blocks walking distance to the lake. All of this at $199 per square foot.
