How about this one acre, no HOA, mobile home in a nice country setting? Just 15 minutes to downtown Tavares and 20 minutes to Downtown Mount Dora, this home is conveniently located to toll roads that will allow you to commute to Orlando or Sanford, or to reach airports and attractions with ease. This is a spacious property with plenty of room for you to spread out. Huge Workshop is set up with power and sizeable overhead door for you to get to work or store your favorite toys. There is a fenced backyard for your livestock and other pets and property is zoned to allow agricultural uses. At the front, a gated entry to the driveway sits right alongside your picket fence. Partially shaded front yard has plenty of room for parking. Already set up with a playground and patio area in front of the house. Inside you'll find a large living room with wood-burning fireplace and built in cabinets. Flows well into the kitchen with island, recently updated appliances that are just 2 years old. There is a huge laundry room leading to the backyard. The split room floor plan has three bedrooms and two bathrooms plus an office, den, or extra bonus space. The roof was replaced in 2018. The road entering the community, Lenze Dr, is currently being prepared for paving. Discovery Road will remain a dirt road for the time being. Be sure to ask your realtor for details. This is a great opportunity for a quiet life just 15 minutes to downtown Tavares, 20 minutes to downtown Mount Dora. Easy commute to toll roads to lead you to Orlando or Sanford, all the major attractions, and two airports. The house has great potential with its spacious floor plan. It's just waiting for you to come in and finish with your own special touches. Easy to live in while you make it your own.
