Rare Opportunity to own a 1 full-acre property in Windermere ready for your imagination. This expansive single-story residence in Lake Down Shores offers 3018 sq. ft. of thoughtfully designed living space with a 4 car garage. The home boasts 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, providing ample room for a large family or guests. This house has been very well maintained through the years and is being sold by the original owner. Houses don't come up for sale very often in this neighborhood as the location is Fantastic - Very close to the 408 with access to downtown -- or wherever your heart desires. Situated in a very good school district, there is also great shopping and restaurants just a few minutes away on Restaurant Row; and the theme parks are all within a 15 minute drive. However, the BEST PART is having lake access via a PRIVATE HOA BOAT RAMP onto the Windermere lake chain! The heart of the home is the recently renovated kitchen (2020), featuring rich wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a large center island with a white quartz countertop. The kitchen's stone tile backsplash and pendant lighting add a touch of elegance, while the open layout seamlessly connects to the living areas. The spacious primary bedroom offers a retreat-like atmosphere with views of your large backyard. Other well-sized bedrooms feature large windows and great space allowing natural light to flood the rooms. Some rooms showcase unique design elements such as decorative crown molding or wood-paneled walls, adding character to the home and providing versatile spaces for relaxation and entertainment. The porch was converted years ago to a bonus room along with a private office space with plantation shutters, offering views of the full acre yard. This home's layout allows for easy flow between rooms while maintaining privacy where needed. The home has a newer roof installed in 2017 and an HVAC that was replaced in 2022. Hot water tank is from 2003. Make your appointment today to see this beautiful home and acre lot with lake access before its gone.
