Description of Property
Discover a rare opportunity to embrace elevated country living just minutes from the vibrant charm of downtown Mount Dora.

Crafted with authenticity and designed for those who crave space, serenity, and a sense of escape, this one-of-a-kind residence invites you to settle into a relaxed environment surrounded by mature trees, natural landscaping, and wide-open possibilities. Whether you envision a haven for horses, a place to park your boats and RVs, room for farm animals, or simply a retreat where your imagination can roam—this property welcomes it all. With no HOA, you have the freedom to shape the acreage to suit your dreams. The cabin itself radiates warmth from the moment you step onto the wide front porch—perfect for lazy afternoons, quiet conversations, and classic front-porch swinging. Inside, the oversized wood-burning fireplace creates an inviting centerpiece, enhanced by rich beamed ceilings and the unmistakable charm only a true log home can deliver. Designed with flexibility in mind, the layout includes one spacious bedroom on the main level and three bedrooms upstairs, once thoughtfully arranged to support multi-generational living. The recently renovated kitchen (2024) elevates the home’s rustic elegance with ZLINE black stainless steel appliances, a generous walk-in pantry, quartz countertops, and finishes that blend seamlessly with the cabin’s character. Whether you’re preparing meals for a crowd or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, the space feels both luxurious and grounded. As you explore the grounds, you’ll find a thoughtfully arranged blend of wooded spaces and open grassy areas, complemented by a horse pen, dog pen, fruit trees, and a versatile pole barn. The detached garage adds practical convenience; while the fire pit area creates a centralized gathering spot for memorable evenings with skies so clear you’ll enjoy amazing stargazing from the comfort of home. Every corner of the acreage offers its own appeal, from the natural canopy of mature trees to the peaceful atmosphere that defines this private retreat. While this property feels wonderfully secluded, its location remains exceptionally convenient.
