* * You can purchase this home with NO INCOME VERIFICATION NEEDED--> ADDED BONUS SELLER IS WILLING TO CONTRIBUTE UP TO $10,000 TOWARD THE BUYER'S CLOSING COSTS & OR PREPAIDS WITH AN ACCEPTABLE OFFER * * BONUS SUITE WITH PRIVATE ENTRANCE | SALTWATER POOL | FULLY RENOVATED | NO HOA 407 Forest Road isn't just a home — it's a lifestyle upgrade in one of Central Florida's most charming towns. The standout feature: a PRIVATE BONUS SUITE with its own independent entrance and double glass French doors — perfect as an in-law suite, income-producing guest retreat, or home office completely separate from the main living space. Whether you're housing family, hosting snowbird guests, or generating Airbnb income, this flexibility is rare at any price. The main home delivers a complete, high-end renovation — no shortcuts. Luxury laminate flooring throughout, a stone wood-burning fireplace, and a fully updated kitchen with quartz countertops, quartz island, Samsung stainless steel appliances, and soft-close cabinetry. The pass-through window above the kitchen sink opens directly to the covered patio — seamless indoor-outdoor living at its best. The primary suite is a private retreat: spa-inspired bathroom with matte black fixtures, oversized walk-in shower with wood-look tile, and direct access to a private outdoor deck and the pool. Out back — a six-foot-deep saltwater pool, covered paver patio, storage shed, and a brand-new pump and salt system. The circular driveway offers generous open parking with a beautifully landscaped approach beneath mature oaks. Major systems all updated: new AC/HVAC, new windows throughout, 2023 water heater, and a 2017 roof. And the location? Steps from Lake Gertrude, minutes from the Harris Chain of Lakes, and a short drive to the cobblestone streets and festivals of historic downtown Mount Dora — where life genuinely moves at a better pace.
