The main house features three bedrooms and three baths, spread across approximately 2, 727 square feet, while a charming one-bedroom cottage provides a perfect retreat for guests or potential rental income. The owners have invested over half a million dollars in renovations, including enhancements to the foundation, all new electrical, plumbing, attic space, and completely new bathrooms and kitchen.

The home also offers a sunroom and multiple cozy living spaces, all adorned with refinished red heart pine floors and elegant glass doorknobs. Outside, the expansive 0. 51-acre fenced lot captures the essence of outdoor living. Host family dinners under the pergola, swim in the heated saltwater pool, or enjoy a cookout in the outdoor kitchen. The detached cottage, perfect for an in-law suite or Airbnb, boasts a mini-split AC, built-in shelving, a Murphy bed, and a small eat-in kitchen. Modern updates enhance the home's functionality, including remodeled kitchens and baths, new paint inside and out, updated electrical and plumbing, and custom closets. With a two-car carport and room for a golf cart, exploring the nearby attractions of Plant Street is a breeze. Just three blocks away, discover the vibrant lifestyle of downtown Winter Garden, with its dining, theater, live music, and boutique shopping. The area offers something for everyone, from leisurely strolls along tree-lined streets to bike rides on the 22-mile West Orange Trail.
