This COZY 2-story home offers a perfect blend of rustic charm and contemporary comfort while still being close to shopping, Charter/Private/Public schools, and social activities. With beautiful tongue-in-groove ceilings, 3 bedrooms (the 2 bedrooms downstairs were designed to accommodate a home gym for the seller but can be finished into 2 separate bedrooms), 2 bathrooms, fully fenced with beautiful shade trees, and a newer shed, this property is a true gem for those seeking a peaceful and unique living experience. The master bedroom loft features storage areas (and a secret storage area in the master closet) as well as a nook area with lots of natural light. The metal roof of this home provides durability and longevity and adds a touch of modern sophistication. This home was built to last as the seller's family member designed and built the home and the seller never worried about any storms that ever came to Florida. Situated for peaceful getaways, yet conveniently close to local amenities in The Villages, Mount Dora, Leesburg and Eustis, this property offers endless possibilities and the chance to truly make it your own. Your idyllic escape awaits – inquire now! You also own some of the pond across the road equaling approximately 1.25 acres (see attached survey).
