Enjoy lake access to the Harris Chain of Lakes through private community boat ramps, paired with 2.1 fully cleared acres and a nearly new custom home. This property offers a rare blend of space, privacy, and a lifestyle built around the water and open land. The home welcomes you into a bright, open-concept living space that serves as the central hub for everyday living and entertaining. Sliding glass doors lead to an extended screened-in lanai, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living and overlooking the expansive cleared property. With the acreage already cleared, the land offers a true blank canvas—ideal for a pool, outdoor living areas, or your own private retreat. The thoughtfully designed split floor plan provides both comfort and privacy. A private office/den is positioned near the front of the home, while the primary suite is tucked away, featuring two walk-in closets and an en-suite bath with dual vanities, soaking tub, and a separate walk-in shower. On the opposite side of the home, two bedrooms share a full bathroom, and a fourth bedroom with an additional bath is privately located toward the rear, perfect for guests or multigenerational living. Tile flooring runs throughout, complemented by 10-foot ceilings, upgraded fixtures, and enhanced lighting for a clean, cohesive feel. The kitchen anchors the home with quartz countertops, an oversized island with extra storage, 42-inch cabinets with crown molding, soft-close drawers, and built-in oven and microwave. Quartz countertops continue throughout all bathrooms. The oversized garage offers exceptional functionality with a 50-amp outlet, attic lift with power, and a high-efficiency 17-SEER AC system. Additional features include bronze-finish window frames and sliding glass doors, gutters, and an expanded concrete driveway. Designed with future flexibility in mind, the home is generator-ready with a leased 500-gallon propane tank, underground supply to the patio, two transfer switches, and an underground chase—making it easy to add an outdoor kitchen or whole-house generator. The property is part of the Hidden River Lake HOA, which provides access to two private boat ramps located within the gated portion of the community. The home itself is not gated, allowing easy access while still enjoying private lake privileges. The property is on city water and sewer and zoned for horses. Conveniently located just minutes from the shops and dining of Mount Dora and the waterfront attractions of Tavares, this home offers the best of both convenience and tranquility. This is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. Space, lake access, thoughtful upgrades, and the freedom to create your own Florida dream.
