Welcome to the island, where a well cared for lodge-style lakefront retreat will transport you to a place of remarkable seclusion! This home has panoramic water views and approximately 1200 feet of shoreline along Haines Creek, opening to the 7800 acre lake on the Harris Chain of Lakes in central Florida, home to national bass fishing tournaments, antique boat shows, and Americas Seaplane City, Tavares. Boaters can enjoy a day on the waterways and many restaurants accessible by the water, including downtown Mount Dora, named by Southern Living magazine as one the souths best small towns! A canal wraps around the property for isolation, with a solid concrete bridge providing access to the gated residence. Tucked in the canal is a well constructed boat house with electric lift, and a separate sunning dock. Enjoy your morning coffee on the expansive screened in patio and watch sun rises over the eastern shores of Lake Eustis. The split log home reflects you to simpler times to enjoy home cooked meals and share stories. Wood beams stretching across the vaulted ceilings, a stone wall feature, fireplace, and wrap around wood mantle add to the warmth of comfortable open space. The master suite offers convenient sliding glass doors out the lanai and spa. If you have to leave this tranquility, the Orlando airport is approximately one hour away. Local shopping, dining, and live entertainment are just a short drive to nearby towns. Owning an island is more than just a novelty, it could be a reality!
