About This Home

ZONING FOR MULTIFAMILY!!! Discover this stunning property located in the charming city of Tavares, offering private access to the beautiful Lake Dora. This freshwater lake, nestled in Central Florida, is part of the well-known Harris Chain of Lakes — a network of connected lakes famous for their natural beauty, boating, and recreational activities.

Situated directly on Lake Dora, this spacious and elegant home features three bedrooms and three bathrooms. The interior showcases an open-concept design that seamlessly blends the living, dining, and kitchen spaces, ideal for family gatherings and entertaining. Expansive windows throughout the home flood the space with natural light and provide breathtaking views of the pool, lush surroundings, and the lake itself.

The kitchen is outfitted with premium appliances, granite countertops, and custom design elements that add unique character. The home sits on a generous lot, offering plenty of privacy and room for outdoor fun. A large back patio invites you to enjoy al fresco dining, relaxation, and entertaining guests.

The grounds extend all the way to the crystal-clear edge of Lake Dora, making this a truly exceptional waterfront property. A spacious garage accommodates multiple vehicles, and an additional two-bay structure offers ample storage for your needs. This secondary building is separate from the main home and includes RV hookups for a motorhome.

Conveniently located near downtown Tavares, you'll have easy access to fine dining and entertainment. Fully renovated, this home is a paradise for those who love life by the water — complete with a private dock and boat slip. This property is truly a must-see.
