ELEGANTLY UPDATED HOME IN THE DESIRED HIGHLANDS OF MOUNT DORA NEIGHBORHOOD. Rich in history and brimming with charm, downtown Mount Dora has long since been likened to a New England seaside village. This lakeside town is known for its antiques, art galleries, fine dining, whimsical retail shops, full-service marina, famed Art Festivals, and an amazing holiday light display. After a day enjoying Mount Dora and all the surrounding areas, then retreat home to this tranquil neighborhood enclave, located less than a mile from Downtown. With only 19 homes, this secluded neighborhood is nestled amongst the natural beauty of mature trees and greenery. Head towards the back of the community to the charming cul-de-sac to find this stately 3 bedroom, 3 ½ bath 3096 S.F. home that rests on over a quarter of an acre with a lush front and back lawn, mature oaks across the rear property line, and no rear neighbors. Peace and tranquility greet you as you arrive home to this lovingly maintained and renovated property with a welcoming and traditional facade. The current owners have completed extensive renovations from 2018 forward, making it gorgeous and completely move-in ready. A convenient paved path leads to the front door, and the oversized, side-entry driveway/parking pad has recently been replaced. A double garage door opens to an extended space for cars and storage. Enter through the front door and be welcomed into the main living space, which exudes comfortable casual elegance. Some recently completed updates include paint inside and out, wide window casement millwork and baseboards added, lighting and ceiling fans, popcorn removed from ceilings, a complete kitchen, powder room, and owner’s suite bathroom remodel, luxury vinyl wood plank and porcelain tile flooring installed, 350 SF rear patio added, and so much more! The kitchen is a showstopper! Shaker-style cabinetry and storage drawers are topped with high-end granite counters and finished with a subway tile backsplash. All stainless appliances, including a double wall oven and hood vent. Gorgeous island with pendant lighting, farmhouse sink, and breakfast bar. The dining room is open to the kitchen, has views of the open loft, and shares a cozy, 2-sided fireplace with the living room. Relax or entertain in this lovely living room, complete with double sets of French doors that open onto the rear balcony with elevated views of the backyard and mature tree line. The carpeted owner’s suite has a delightful tree-top screened balcony, an ideal place for morning coffee or meditation! The gentle breeze through the trees and melodic birdsong are perfect to start your day. Enjoy two walk-in closets and a stylish en-suite with a dual granite sink vanity, garden soaking tub, and custom tiled shower. From the foyer, take the short flight upstairs to a carpeted open loft area perfect as a game room, yoga room, art studio, or library. Take the foyer stairs down to the lower level that includes a private en-suite bedroom with a walk-in closet and glass sliders to the rear patio. Bedroom 3 shares the full hall bathroom. There are multiple oversized storage rooms downstairs, a well-equipped laundry room, an access door to the garage side of the house, and access to the huge covered rear patio and private, fenced backyard. What a wonderful place to call home!
