Property Description

Welcome to The Peninsula—one of Central Florida's most coveted addresses on the Harris Chain of Lakes, offering unmatched serenity, postcard-worthy sunsets, and a true waterfront lifestyle just minutes from Orlando. This beautifully appointed 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom split floor plan home combines luxury, comfort, and resort-style living in a setting that feels worlds away yet remains wonderfully convenient.

Step inside and immediately take in the sweeping west-facing lake views visible from nearly every main living area. The resort-inspired primary suite is a private sanctuary featuring French doors that open directly onto the pool deck, dramatic water views, dual custom walk-in closets, and a completely custom-remodeled spa-like bath with a deep garden tub and doorless walk-in shower—your own tranquil retreat after a day on the lake.

Designed for both everyday living and unforgettable entertaining, this home offers multiple spacious living areas anchored by panoramic lakefront scenery, plus an office/den/bonus room ideal for working from home or creating a quiet reading hideaway. The chef's kitchen boasts a gas range with upgraded exterior venting, abundant prep and storage space, a center island with built-in storage, walk-in pantry, and breakfast bar—perfect for cooking, hosting, or simply enjoying morning coffee with waterfront views.

The living room features a stylish wet bar and flows seamlessly out to the expansive lanai and refinished pool deck, where a Pebble-Tec heated pool and spa invite you to swim, relax, or entertain beneath the evening sky. With 156 feet of lake frontage, a new dock, covered boathouse, and boat lift, this property is a dream for fishermen, boaters, and anyone who loves life on the water.

Upgrades include a 2019 roof, 2023 whole-home generator, new gas water heater, newer HVAC, and a freshly re-sealed paver driveway. Tray ceilings, large windows with plantation shutters, and nearly an acre of land add to the spacious, elegant feel of this exceptional home.

The community itself feels exclusive, featuring its own private road and a brand-new gated entrance scheduled to be installed this February—enhancing privacy, security, and curb appeal.

Located in Tavares—America's Seaplane City—this is lakefront living at its finest, where every day can feel like a vacation. Whether you're watching unforgettable sunsets from your pool, hosting friends for waterfront evenings, or heading out on the Harris Chain for a day of adventure, this home delivers a lifestyle that is truly unmatched.
