About This Home
As of August 2025Welcome to this meticulously maintained and updated 3-bedroom 3-bath home surrounded by a beautifully landscaped yard (fully fenced in the rear). This retro-chic, mid-century modern gem is minutes from downtown Mount Dora, parks, lakes, and the US 441 shopping and restaurant corridor, where its location conveniently serves all your needs (including a less than ten minute drive to the Central Florida Expressway). This home features a new (2024) roof with leaf guard gutters as well as a recent high-end AC with HALO® Whole Home In-Duct Air Purifier, and "Quiet doors" were recently installed on the interior. A professionally designed kitchen features a splendid stained glass window crafted by a local artist, solid wood cabinets, granite countertops, under counter lighting, and stainless appliances. Hard-surfaced floors flow throughout the home, which includes diamond polished terrazzo, porcelain tile, luxury vinyl plank, and high quality vinyl laminate. The large dining area showcases the original crystal chandelier. Several high quality built-ins provide an abundance of storage options. Plantation shutters, custom blinds, and crown molding enhance this home with decorative appeal. As an additional bonus, this charming home also accommodates a spacious, extra room which presently serves as an office. The fully air conditioned/heated, insulated, and finished garage space has been converted into a third bedroom (can be converted back should you wish) and provides a large built-in storage unit, closet, and nearby full bath. The expansive glassed-in Florida room (air and heat) offers a panoramic view of the lush, outdoor oasis to be enjoyed year round. To reduce irrigation costs, the landscape is watered via a deep private well with a zone-automated sprinkler system. Two hose bibs are served by the well. Many more features, too bountiful to describe, can only be appreciated by looking at this quality home in person, so call your agent quickly and schedule a showing today before this treasure is available no longer!
