About This Home

As of August 2025

Waterfront dreams do come true! Tucked away on a quiet canal leading to the famous Harris Chain of Lakes, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a relaxed waterfront lifestyle with endless opportunities for fun and tons of potential! Bring your boat—this property features its own private boat house and lift, giving you instant access to over 75,000 acres of interconnected lakes known for incredible bass fishing, boating, and waterfront dining.

Inside, you’ll find updated stainless steel appliances in the kitchen, perfect for cooking up your fresh catch of the day. The home also offers a newer roof, less than 2 year old HVAC system, a spacious 2-car garage with plenty of storage, and a screened-in patio ideal for sipping your morning coffee while enjoying the sights and sounds of Florida’s natural wildlife. Just off the patio is a bonus room—ideal for crafting, storage, a home gym, or whatever your heart desires.

Located in the heart of Tavares, “America’s Seaplane City,” you'll be just minutes from lively downtown events, waterfront restaurants, and year-round festivals. From boat parades and farmers markets to sunset cruises and waterfront parks, there's always something to do on or off the water.

With so much charm and potential, this canal-front gem is the perfect place to create your own piece of paradise. Come live the lake life you’ve been dreaming about!
