Property Description
Imagine waking up every morning to breathtaking sunrise views over LAKE DORA, one of the crown jewels of the renowned Harris Chain of Lakes. This exceptional lakefront estate offers the ultimate Florida waterfront lifestyle on a rare 1-acre double lot boasting an impressive 305 ft of solid CONCRETE SEAWALL, a feature seldom found and highly coveted for its unmatched water frontage and stability. Completely renovated in 2020, the 3-bedroom, 2 1/2-bathroom home welcomes you through elegant double front doors into an expansive open-concept living area. Towering windows and strategic design ensure PANORAMIC LAKE VIEWS from every room in the house. A wood-burning fireplace serves as the heart of the living room. The gourmet kitchen is a showstopper, featuring quartz countertops, a massive island with abundant seating and prep space, new Thermador appliances and seamless flow into the living area. A custom-built bench seat nestled beneath a large picture window invites you to sit and soak in the serene lake views while enjoying a morning coffee or entertaining guests. Pocket sliding glass doors disappear completely, blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor living as they open wide to the resort-style backyard. The third bedroom was masterfully reimagined as a sophisticated wet bar, complete with a huge picture window framing the sparkling lake, an ideal spot to craft cocktails and watch the sunset or hosting unforgettable parties. The spacious primary suite offers a private sanctuary with generous room for a king-sized bed and sitting area, featuring direct access to the pool patio with pocket sliding doors overlooking the pool and lake.

An expansive pool deck offers ample room for sunbathing, dining, and large-scale entertaining. A fully equipped summer kitchen makes outdoor hosting effortless and a MOSQUITO NIX SYSTEM helps keep pests away. Both front and back porches feature upgraded Tongue and Groove ceilings.
