ADORABLE 2-BEDROOM BUNGALOW WITH GARAGE, CARPORT, AND OVERSIZED FENCED YARD LOCATED IN THE CHARMING TOWN OF HOWEY-IN-THE-HILLS. Do you desire peace and tranquility? Perhaps a bit of a slower pace away from busyness and traffic? Come to Howey and find quiet streets, beautiful land and lakes, friendly neighbors, and that ‘small-town’ feeling that so many long for. Sitting on the shores of Little Lake Harris, Howey offers gentle breezes, sparkling lake waters, and unspoiled nature. Take a stroll through the Sarah Maude Mason Nature Preserve, launch a boat on the Howey boat ramp, or take a tour through the historic Howey Mansion. After a day of exploration, head home to your personal tranquil paradise. This charming 2-bedroom bungalow is situated on a .34 acre parcel with just the right amount of moss-laden Oaks for a bit of shade. The spacious driveway leads to a covered carport and a 20x21 garage. A carport side-entry door will take you inside to the den, or guests can walk up the paved path to the covered front entry door, which has a gabled roof and classic wrought-iron columns. Step inside to find a natural light-infused, cozy interior that exudes a comfortable, welcoming feel. The foyer offers practical tile flooring and gives way to attractive, neutral carpeting in the front living room with abundant windows and a whitewashed brick fireplace with a wood mantle - what a lovely place to visit with guests. The open-concept kitchen/dining area is equally suited for hosting family and friend gatherings and holiday celebrations. The kitchen offers abundant wood cabinetry, granite counters, a tile backsplash, stainless appliances, a convenient breakfast bar, and an adjacent dining room with French doors to the covered rear deck for even more relaxing and entertaining space! Both the dining room and living room have access to the expansive office/den, which has beautiful wood plank ceilings and is large enough to be a multi-functional space. One end can be set up as a TV viewing area, leaving the other end as a home office, hobby area, or fitness space. A private hallway leads to two spacious, carpeted bedrooms, both with walk-in closets. There’s a full hallway bathroom with tub/shower, linen closet, and a hallway storage closet. A/C 2023, Roof 2013, Tankless Gas Water Heater 2017. Enjoy outdoor living in your privacy-fenced backyard, complete with a covered rear deck for grilling, dining, or relaxing. There’s an easy access door to the garage, which houses the washer/dryer and is ideal for extra storage, a workshop, or a place to house your cars. Popular Boondocks Waterfront Restaurant and Mission Inn Resort, Clubhouse, Golf Course, and Restaurant are less than a mile away. When you must leave this idyllic town, the nearby Turnpike can take you to the Orlando International Airport or Walt Disney World in less than 1 hour.
