About This Home

Located in the center of downtown Tavares, the county seat of Lake County, this distinctive mixed-use property places your business in a location surrounded by government, professional services, local commerce, and the amenities of the downtown district. Zoned for both commercial and residential use, the property offers an uncommon level of flexibility for a professional seeking space that can adapt to a variety of needs. The first floor is currently configured for professional office use with a welcoming lobby, reception office, four conference rooms, an ADA-compliant restroom, additional full bathroom, and a breakroom with kitchen area. Twelve off-street parking spaces provide convenient access for employees, clients, and visitors, while a private rear entrance provides separate access to the residential portion. Currently used as a residence, the upper level features an open-concept studio-style layout with a defined sleeping alcove, living area, office area, storage, and full bathroom, all under air. A kitchen is located at the entrance to the residential portion, creating practical separation between the two uses while maintaining the flexibility of the overall property. Whether used as a professional office with residential space above, an owner-occupied business and residence, an investment property, or another permitted mixed-use configuration, this property provides options rarely found in a downtown setting. Call today to schedule your private tour.
