NOW AVAILABLE for IMMEDIATE OCCUPANCY! This darling 1925 Craftsman sits just off the shores of gorgeous Lake Minneola, part of Clermont's Chain of Lakes in Historic Downtown Clermont! In nice condition, not total perfection, but it has more personality than the prettiest house you know! Built to last, this home has 100 year old heart pine flooring, wood lathe and plaster walls, brick fireplace and an array of satisfying built-ins for your books and knick-knacks! Yes, a pedestal sink, stylish tile, cast iron tub and good water pressure! This is truly a little dollhouse! Upon entering, you can see the history unfold as certain spaces have taken on new purposes over the years! A large closed-in porch with exposed siding makes for a cool backdrop as you add a few cozy seating options, a teak coffee table and a yummy candle. The home is inviting, you can't recreate this type of feeling. It's just old and cool. The family room is cozy with a big brick fireplace painted white. The original sash windows are a work of art. Intended to last, crafted from hardwoods and leaded glass. The natural light is great and the home is just adorable! Closets are tiny, so hit up Marketplace for an armoire (happy to assist) and just know creativity goes a long way in a vintage bungalow! The kitchen was updated at some point and the laundry sits off the back of the home, yes under cover, but not originally! Historic houses aren't for everyone! That's why renting is perfect, because you don't have to worry about the $$ it costs to own one! Looking for a respectable tenant that appreciates a home like this and of course pays their rent, until the snowbird parents fly home to roost in a few years! NEW HVAC (2024) and tankless hot water heater! Now for LOCATION! Let's put it this way, you can walk everywhere!!! Keller Park is right across the street with tennis/pickleball courts and shuffleboard! Walkable to the public beach, splash pad, ice cream parlor, dance class, a local city meeting, a haircut...even a color! Savor delicious and fun dining options like the NEW lakefront restaurant the Salt Shack, comfort food at Southern on 8th or a fun cocktail and tapas at Roasted Spirits! An amazing deli is expanding and taking over the opposite corner of 8th soon! We have awesome local boutiques, specialty shops and tons of fun festivals year round! You'll be shocked at the variety of reasonably priced places to buy trinkets and gifts! Check out Everything Local! First Friday Food Trucks is also a fun event to attend and gives you a check mark on what to have for dinner with a plethora of tasty options from around the globe! Of course the infamous West Orange Trail runs across the state winding along our waterfront, literally around the corner! Ride bikes, run, rollerblade all the way to Historic Downtown Winter Garden! Once known as The Gem of the Hills, we have taken on the name "The Choice of Champions" with many world class athletes calling Lake County their home to train and compete in triathlons and water sports! Tons of NEW things coming our way as our town continues to flourish as one of Florida's top lake towns! Ask me about the Carefree Boat Club! Now you can enjoy the pleasures of boating without the hassles of ownership.
