Overview

Lakefront living begins here! Welcome to this beautifully maintained 2-bedroom, 2-bath waterfront home located in the desirable Lake Harris Shores community. Situated on 70 feet of freshwater canal frontage with direct access to Little Lake Harris and the renowned Harris Chain of Lakes, this property is a dream for boaters, anglers, and anyone who loves the Florida waterfront lifestyle.

Step outside to your covered dock complete with electric and boat lift, making it easy to spend your days exploring miles of interconnected lakes, waterfront restaurants, parks, and world-class fishing. The private community boat ramp provides added convenience for launching additional watercraft.

Inside you'll find a spacious floor plan featuring a welcoming living area with a fireplace, Florida room, split-bedroom layout, walk-in closets, and an attached two-car garage.

Major improvements provide peace of mind, including a brand-new roof (2026), new A/C (2026), hotwater heater (2026), septic system replaced approximately three years ago, a replaced seawall, and shoreline stabilization with land pinning. The home is also known for its surprisingly low electric bills, making waterfront living even more enjoyable.

Whether you're searching for a year-round residence, weekend retreat, or boating paradise, this home offers the perfect combination of comfort, updates, and direct access to one of Central Florida's most sought-after chain-of-lakes communities.
