About This Home

LAKEFRONT LIVING, RESORT STYLE POOL, PRIVATE GUEST SUITE & COVERED RV PARKING. “THE FLORIDA LIFESTYLE YOU’VE BEEN WAITING FOR!”

Picture waking up to shimmering lake views and unwinding beside a private pool that feels straight out of a “five star” retreat. Welcome to 926 Van Drive in Auburndale, Florida, a distinctive Lake Van waterfront home offering the space, character and flexibility that are increasingly difficult to find in Central Florida. Offering 3,564 total sq ft / 2388 sq ft of living space, four bedrooms and three bathrooms, this Auburndale lakefront property combines a spacious 3-bedroom main residence with an attached private 1-bedroom, 1-bath guest / in-law suite, creating an exceptional opportunity for multigenerational living.

Step inside and you'll immediately notice that this is anything but a cookie cutter home. Beautiful real wood details throughout the interior add warmth, texture and craftsmanship rarely found in newer homes. Tile and hard surface flooring throughout complement the natural finishes and give the home timeless and comfortable character.
Generously sized living and dining areas provide plenty of room to gather, entertain or simply spread out and relax. Large windows and sliding glass doors bring in abundant natural light while creating an effortless connection between the interior and the home's expansive outdoor living areas.
The primary suite offers a peaceful private retreat with generous proportions and a completely remodeled primary bathroom, providing an updated space while maintaining the character that makes this home special.

One of the property's biggest differentiators is the attached private guest or in-law suite. This isn't simply another bedroom. The suite provides its own living room, kitchen, bedroom and completely remodeled bathroom, creating a true secondary living environment within the property. It's an ideal configuration for multigenerational living, extended family, adult children, long term guests or anyone needing additional private living space.

An expansive screened outdoor living area surrounds the free form swimming pool, lush mature tropical landscaping and stone waterfall feature, creating a private backyard retreat that feels more like a resort than a traditional pool deck.
Multiple outdoor spaces provide room for every occasion, including covered lounging, an outdoor bar, poolside relaxation areas.

Beyond the pool and gardens is the feature you simply can't recreate: Lake Van.
The backyard opens to beautiful waterfront views, creating an ever changing backdrop from morning through sunset. Imagine starting your day with coffee overlooking the lake, spending the afternoon beside your private pool, gathering beneath the covered lanai for dinner and ending the evening watching the Florida sunset reflect across the water.

For buyers searching for additional space for recreational vehicles, the property also includes a dedicated covered RV parking area, providing valuable covered space for an RV, recreational equipment or additional storage, another hard to find feature in a lakefront home.
Just a few miles away is local shopping and dining as well as easy Hwy access to Orlando/ Tampa.

Come experience 926 Van Drive for yourself because some homes are meant to be seen, but this one is meant to be experienced. From the peaceful lake views to the resort style backyard, this is a place that simply feels different the moment you arrive. See you soon!
