Property Description

Custom-built brick estate on 1.2 wooded acres with two fireplaces, major recent updates, and the privacy you've been searching for—just minutes from historic Mount Dora. Nestled beneath a canopy of majestic oak trees on a private lot, this home offers the perfect blend of timeless craftsmanship, generous living space, and peaceful surroundings. With 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and 3,744 square feet, this one-owner home has been thoughtfully maintained and updated over the years. A circular driveway, manicured landscaping, and covered front portico create a welcoming first impression. Inside, the spacious floor plan is designed for both comfortable everyday living and effortless entertaining. The impressive family room is anchored by a soaring floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace with custom built-in shelving, while the expansive primary suite serves as a true retreat, stretching the length of the home and featuring its own wood-burning fireplace with a marble hearth. The eat-in kitchen overlooks the private backyard and offers Corian countertops, stainless steel appliances, and abundant workspace. Just beyond, the oversized screened lanai with its beautiful cedar planking provides the perfect place to enjoy morning coffee, outdoor dining, or quiet evenings surrounded by nature. Additional highlights include a dedicated office or craft room, a spacious laundry room with folding area, underground pet fencing with two separate zones, irrigation system, and a long-standing Massey termite bond. Brand-new carpet was installed in July 2026 on the staircase, upstairs hallway, and primary bedroom. Major updates include a new roof (2024), exterior paint (2024), downstairs HVAC (2024), and upstairs water heater (2025). A rare bonus is that the original owner has preserved the home's original construction plans and documentation, offering valuable insight for future renovations or expansion. If you've been searching for a home that combines privacy, quality construction, and room to grow, this exceptional property is ready to welcome its next chapter.
