This 55-plus community is also nestled between Lake Harris & Lake Dora of the Harris Chain of Lakes making it a water lover's paradise. Instantly appealing and meticulously maintained, this home’s floor plan has been redesigned in 2010 with updates to attain the lifestyle you deserve. The kitchen underwent a total renovation from top to bottom moving walls and doorways creating a user-friendly space offering ample cabinetry, pendant lighting, and designer granite. A fireplace was added to the living area creating a cozy ambiance to the space while extending hidden storage for TV & video components. Overlooking a serene pond and natural preserve the screened lanai was converted to a relaxing Florida room where you will find energy-star windows dressed by power blinds in a climate-controlled setting. A modest master suite features a generous walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom with a solid surface counter & low maintenance flooring. Located opposite the master are bedrooms 2 & 3 presenting privacy for friends or family visits. With energy efficiency in mind, solar fans were recently installed in the attic along with additional blown-in insulation. All windows were upgraded to vinyl, double pane energy-star with transferable warranties. The roof was replaced in 2019 with an upgraded designer shingle carrying a 50-year transferable warranty and 6” gutters were incorporated throughout. A new HVAC system was installed in 2016 to include zoning controls around the home. Imperial Village is an attractive community of 46 homesites in a 55-plus setting with access to the Harris Chain of Lakes at its front door. Proximal to the nearby cities of Tavares, Eustis & Historic Mount Dora, you will discover fine restaurants, waterfront dining, water activities, shopping & full medical facilities yet just minutes to Orlando Airport, The Villages & Famous Area Theme Parks and Beaches. Packaged to please both taste and budget, this home is sure to exceed your expectations. Schedule Your Showing Today.
