About This Home

Investor’s Dream in Orlando’s Premier Airbnb Community – Fully Furnished, Short-Term Rental Approved Townhome Across from Epic Universe Attraction Park!
Accepted offer pending, but taking backup offers. This fully furnished 3-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom CORNER UNIT townhome is turn-key ready and located in one of the only communities in Orange County zoned for short-term rentals, making it an exceptional investment opportunity and an ideal income-generating property through platforms like Airbnb and VRBO.
Situated just across from the brand-new EPIC Universe Theme Park (now open as of May 2025!) and minutes from the Orlando Convention Center, International Drive, SeaWorld, Millenia Mall, Dr Phillips area, Disney Parks and Orlando International Airport—this property places business and leisure travelers right in the heart of the action.
Inside this beautiful three-story home enjoy the benefits of new luxury vinyl plank floors (installed December 2024), new roof (replaced June 2022), newer AC (installed 2/2019) and modern decor curated by a professional designer. With a direct-entry one-car garage, each of the three en-suite bedrooms offers privacy and style—including a ground-floor suite with French doors that open to a cozy outdoor patio.
The second floor's open-concept layout features 9' ceilings and an abundance of natural light and a balcony, connecting the gourmet kitchen, breakfast nook, formal dining area, and spacious living room—perfect for both relaxation and entertaining. Two additional en-suites on the third floor provide space and comfort for guests or long-term tenants.
Vista Cay's top-tier resort amenities include:
• Three resort-style pools (including a newly renovated main pool, kids bucket/slide water feature and expanded spa)
• Two full-service poolside bars
• Beautifully maintained landscaping within a gated community.
• A 2-mile scenic lakefront walking trail
• Full basketball court, playground, shaded picnic areas
• Fitness center, movie theater, game room, and clubhouse

Whether you choose to manage it yourself or partner with a property manager, the proven track record of strong rental income and rising demand—especially with the recent launch of Epic Universe—makes this a highly lucrative and low-maintenance investment. All future bookings can be transferred to new owner if using same property management.
