Overview

By no fault of the home...this home is back on the market. The buyers had a change of heart..their loss is your gain!PRICED BELOW APPRAISAL VALUE! Been dreaming of lakefront living? Your dream becomes reality in this stunning 4-bedroom, 3-bath pool home on Lake Dora—part of the Harris Chain of Lakes—priced below appraised value and with no HOA! Furniture Negotiable. From the moment you arrive, the freshly painted exterior (2022), lush landscaping, and palm-lined lawn set the tone for the Florida lifestyle you’ve been searching for. Inside, soaring ceilings and a light-filled, open floor plan showcase breathtaking lake views from nearly every room. The Great Room features wood flooring, a wood-burning fireplace, and custom built-ins, while oversized sliders open to a screened brick-paver lanai with a heated pool—creating the perfect indoor-outdoor flow for entertaining. The formal living room, private office/den, and a split floor plan with two primary suites offer comfort and flexibility. The chef’s kitchen boasts rich wood cabinetry, granite counters, a built-in pantry, custom range hood, and a dinette framed by picture windows overlooking the lake. Step outside and truly live the “Florida Life”—swim in the sparkling pool, lounge on the lanai, or stroll down to your private dock with boat lift. Imagine sipping your morning coffee or evening wine here, watching the water shimmer as seaplanes glide in and out of Tavares. This home is a boater’s paradise, with direct access to endless fishing, watersports, and cruising the Harris Chain. Recent upgrades include a rescreened enclosure, new well pump, new roof (2021), pool heat pump, resurfaced pool, new garage door, boat lift, and more. The oversized garage offers plenty of storage and room for your boat. All this, just minutes from Downtown Tavares—“America’s Seaplane City”, known for its vibrant waterfront, restaurants, live entertainment, and festivals, and less than 25 minutes from charming historic Mount Dora. This is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. Don’t just dream it—live it!
