About this home
Set on just over a half acre in Sanford’s established Shadow Lake Woods neighborhood, this distinctive pool home brings together mature trees, room to spread out, NO HOA, and more than 2,000 square feet of potential. This project home requires repairs and renovation completion, offering an opportunity to thoughtfully restore its character and create spaces that reflect your vision, rather than being a move-in-ready property. A broad front lawn and sweeping driveway introduce a home with architectural details that stand apart. Double entry doors lead into a dramatic living area with soaring wood-plank ceilings, expansive windows, and a spiral staircase connecting to the overlooking loft. The living and dining spaces extend toward the rear lanai, offering the potential for a welcoming gathering place with an indoor-outdoor connection once the renovation is complete. The kitchen and adjoining bay-window breakfast nook provide an opportunity to design an everyday hub for meals, conversation, and connection. Positioned on the first floor, the spacious primary suite features direct access to the pool area and separation from the two upstairs bedrooms. The loft offers possibilities for a reading lounge, creative space, or work-from-home setup, while an additional downstairs flex room, interior laundry room, and attached two-car garage add practical versatility. Outside, the expansive covered lanai awaits completion alongside a screened saltwater pool with solar heating, creating the makings of a generous outdoor entertaining retreat. Imagine shaded seating, weekend gatherings, and a refreshed landscape that takes advantage of the substantial yard beyond the pool deck. Mature trees and a storage shed complement the homesite, with room to explore gardening, outdoor recreation, and your own landscape design. The roof was replaced in 2023, and a septic inspection was completed in June 2026. Beyond the property, the location connects you to the shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences of Sanford, Lake Mary, and Heathrow, with medical services including Orlando Health Lake Mary Hospital in the surrounding area. Spend time exploring historic downtown Sanford’s local restaurants, shops, galleries, and community events, or enjoy waterfront walks along the RiverWalk overlooking Lake Monroe. Area parks and boating opportunities on Lake Monroe and the St. Johns River add more ways to enjoy Central Florida’s outdoor lifestyle. Access to I-4, SR 417, and SR 429 provides connections throughout the region for daily commuting and weekend adventures. The location also places the property within the A-rated Seminole County Public Schools district. Bring your plan and imagination to this property, where the generous lot, distinctive design, and no-HOA setting offer the opportunity to create a home that is uniquely yours.
