About this home
Tucked away on a private, dead end road in an established neighborhood, sits this lakefront 2,056 square foot brick home that features a heated pool which feels like it's inside the home because it's covered by the main roof of the house. The west-facing view from the front of the home and the dock on Lake Harris provides 365 beautiful sunsets per year! Additionally, this home has a canal on the east side of the property that leads to the Dead River just a few hundred feet away. So, if you don't want to park your boat on the lake, just bring it around to the canal boathouse. Inside the home, enjoy the large climate controlled Florida Room, the living room with wood burning fireplace and the dining room which features built in bookshelves and a bench seat by the window overlooking the lake. The kitchen has beautiful newer stainless appliances including a convection oven. Recent upgrades and updates include a new 30 year roof in 2008, a completely new AC system in 2012 with an update in 2017 and a remodeled master bathroom in 2017. Check out the photos for even more beauty and charm. Contact your Realtor today to set up a private showing.
