About this home
Virtually Staged. DON’T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER… IMAGINE WHAT THIS PROPERTY COULD BECOME! POND-FRONT! LAKE DORA ACROSS THE STREET! ALMOST A HALF ACRE! NO HOA! Opportunities like this are getting harder to find! Perfectly positioned between Mount Dora and Tavares, this solid home offers something you simply cannot create with a renovation: LOCATION, LAND, WATERFRONT, AND FREEDOM! Situated on a spacious ALMOST HALF-ACRE LOT BACKING UP TO A SPRING-FED POND, with beautiful Lake Dora just across the street, this property delivers the best of Central Florida living. Enjoy peaceful pond-front surroundings, room to spread out, and convenient access to the renowned Harris Chain of Lakes. THE EXPENSIVE IMPROVEMENTS? MANY ARE ALREADY DONE! The home features a newer metal roof, newer A/C, electrical improvements, updated windows, a state-of-the-art water filtration system, and a DIESEL WHOLE-HOUSE GENERATOR! These substantial improvements provide an excellent starting point for transforming this property into something truly special. BRING YOUR IMAGINATION AND MAKE IT YOUR OWN! Inside, you'll discover a spacious living area, separate dining space, and generously sized kitchen offering tremendous renovation possibilities. The primary bedroom features a private bathroom with a step-in shower, while the additional bedrooms provide comfortable space and ample closets. The enclosed laundry room offers even more flexibility for a home office, fitness area, hobby room, or additional storage. BOATS? RVS? TRAILERS? CLASSIC CARS? BRING THE TOYS! With an attached two-car garage, an expansive yard, and ABSOLUTELY NO HOA, you have the flexibility to enjoy your property without restrictive association rules. No HOA fees, no HOA approval process, and plenty of possibilities for making the space work for your lifestyle, subject to applicable county regulations. Also the county maintains the previously private road. LOVE BOATING AND FISHING? YOU'VE FOUND YOUR LOCATION! Lake Dora is right across the street, and the Wooton Park public boat ramp is approximately a mile away, opening the door to boating, fishing, and exploring the Harris Chain of Lakes. Enjoy the tranquility of your own pond-front backyard while having one of Central Florida's most desirable recreational lake systems practically at your doorstep! AND THE LOCATION JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER! You're minutes from historic downtown Mount Dora, famous for its charming shops, restaurants, art festivals, and small-town atmosphere. Even closer is downtown Tavares, AMERICA'S SEAPLANE CITY, where waterfront dining, entertainment, and lakeside activities await. ONE MORE ADVANTAGE — NO CITY PROPERTY TAXES! Located in unincorporated Lake County, the property is outside municipal city limits, adding another attractive feature to this already compelling opportunity. HERE'S THE BOTTOM LINE: You can change paint, flooring, kitchens, and bathrooms, but you cannot manufacture an almost half-acre pond-front setting, with Lake Dora across the street, or create this kind of location and freedom in just any neighborhood! ALMOST A HALF AN ACRE. SPRING-FED POND FRONTAGE. LAKE DORA ACROSS THE STREET. NO HOA. MAJOR IMPROVEMENTS. TWO-CAR GARAGE. UNLIMITED VISION! THE HOUSE NEEDS YOUR TOUCH. THE LOCATION SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. THE OPPORTUNITY IS YOURS! DON'T JUST BUY ANOTHER HOUSE — CREATE SOMETHING EXCEPTIONAL!
