Restore your soul with this charming 1925 American Craftsman Bungalow...Pull into the driveway and walk to the front door like you are travelling through time- both the front sidewalks and driveway are carefully constructed from hand-picked antique bricks extracted from the 1915 Leesburg High School. As you enter, imagine yourself relaxing in one of the new screened-in porches with family and friends, feeling the breezes off Lake Gracie. Open the French doors into the living room and feel the cozy embrace of "coming home". Your creativity will be set free when you choose furnishings to match the carefully curated antique pine floor (also from Leesburg High School). Ordained with original built-ins in the dining room, living room and kitchen. You can feel secure in the fact that there is a new roof with not just new shingles, but a specifically engineered structure underneath. All concerns you may have regarding the purchase of an older home are assuaged- new electric panel, new electric subpanel, all new lighting fixtures throughout... other mechanical systems have either been well-serviced, updated new or restored and repaired. The effective age of this fine home has been changed to give you a sense of security for many years to come
Delightfully restored unfitted kitchen with built-ins and exposed brick.
The home was built at a time when everything was done by hand.
In the mornings, you can go down the hill and take a walk around beautiful Lake Gracie- almost exactly a mile. This quiet neighborhood gives you the privacy you have longed for but is just minutes from downtown Eustis and Mt. Dora with access to shopping, restaurants, health care and all that you will need.
Ten Minutes from Renninger's Antique Market.
45 Minutes from Disneyworld, Warner Bros Studios, Seaworld, Orlando and an hour from the Ocean and the Gulf, depending on whether you feel like driving east or west.
You have to be inside this home to truly appreciate it.
