CHARMING 3/2 MOUNT DORA HOME WITH POOL, GARAGE, AND LARGE YARD. Here’s your opportunity to fulfill your dream of moving to historic Mount Dora to live in a home full of charm and character while not sacrificing practical amenities. Imagine spending a fun day downtown in one of the eclectic boutiques or the art gallery enjoying the many cafes, bakeries, or fine dining restaurants around town. Perhaps you have secured your boat at the full-service marina, and you invite friends to hop aboard and cruise through the famous Mount Dora canal to explore the popular Harris Chain of Lakes. At the end of a thrilling day, retreat home to your personal slice of Florida paradise. This beautiful and welcoming home is nestled onto a generous .41-acre parcel with just the right number of mature trees and foliage. The quintessential metal roof (2019) with gabled roofline and cozy front porch creates a ‘downhome’ feeling. Linger on the porch sipping iced tea while chatting with a neighbor. When you’re ready to come indoors you’ll find a bright and cheery interior rich in character and detail and infused with abundant natural light streaming in through large windows and doors. Thick crown molding and original hardwood floors speak to the original touches of quality craftmanship. The floor plan has great flow for entertaining. The spacious living room offers a decorative fireplace with a mantle for hanging holiday stockings and cards from loved ones. The adjoining dining room has unique, original built-ins and French doors to the rear pool deck. A cozy family room is connected to the living room with French doors that open wide to create even more sense of space. The family room evokes a feeling of rustic elegance with the rustic tile floors, tongue and groove wood-plank ceilings, and abundant wrap-around windows. What a great space to read a book or watch a movie. The galley kitchen has stainless appliances including a gas stove, and overlooks the pool and backyard. There’s also a Butler’s pantry for extra storage and a great coffee prep station. Built-ins abound here adding to the whimsey and charm! Two spacious bedrooms are downstairs, sharing a full bathroom with a shower. The staircase leads to the second story primary suite with tongue and groove ceiling, wood-laminate flooring, huge spaces for lounging, a walk-in closet, and an en-suite with dual sinks, a deep soaking tub, and a tiled shower. Florida life isn’t complete unless you have great outdoor spaces and this property does! Enjoy a covered carport and a 1-car garage, complete with a bonus living space, kitchenette, and full bathroom! Relax or entertain in the privacy fenced back yard with a paver patio, retractable sunshade awning, and a refreshing pool!
