Step through the double glass doors and the home opens straight to the water. The great room sits beneath a coffered ceiling with an inlaid hardwood medallion underfoot, and through the French doors the pool is the first thing you see. It's the view that greets you every time you walk in. The kitchen is built for the way people actually gather. Espresso cabinetry with glass-front uppers, deep granite in gold tones, and a wood island at the center with room to pull up alongside. The window over the sink looks out to the pool, so the water stays in view while you cook. The living room centers on a wall of custom built-ins, with shelves and niches for the things you want close at hand. A gas fireplace anchors one corner, set with a Turkish limestone hearth, split stone surround, and wood mantle. Transom windows keep the room bright through the day. The covered lanai is destined to become your favorite place to spend time. Stamped concrete decking, ceiling fans overhead, and a screened pool that's solar heated and saltwater, all opening to a wide fenced lawn shaded by oaks and Spanish moss. The primary suite shares the same view, with a sitting area facing the water. The lot runs 0.76 acres, with room to store the boat or RV. Squirrel Point's community ramp puts you on Lake Dora and the 75,000-acre Harris Chain of Lakes, one of Central Florida's great playgrounds for boating, fishing, and long afternoons on the water. Downtown Mount Dora and Tavares are minutes away, with their waterfront restaurants, local shops, and small-town charm, and Deer Island Golf Club is close enough for a cart ride, the kind of neighbor that makes the week feel like a vacation. The home has been well maintained and updated where it counts, including the A/C, roof, and water heater, so the next owners can move in with confidence. Schedule your private tour and experience life on the Harris Chain of Lakes.
