Some homes check boxes. This one changes plans. Sitting on a commanding .69-acre corner lot in the heart of Lake Helen, 128 N Lakeview Drive is a fully remodeled 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home that delivers the kind of space, flexibility, and quality that buyers in this market are actively hunting for and rarely finding at this price. Every inch of this home has been touched. New finishes, floors, updated bathrooms, a kitchen built for real life, and a layout that actually flows. Plus, roof is 3 years young! The main home lives large, but the real story here is the private mother-in-law suite.

This is a fully reimagined home in one of Volusia County's most underrated communities, with the kind of income potential and lifestyle flexibility that buyers spend months looking for. The ones who move fast on properties like this are the ones who get them. Schedule your private tour today, times are limited.
