Property Description
The Hidden Gem of Howey-in-the-Hills Tucked beyond the moss-draped oaks and whispering cypress trees, where the breeze carries from the glistening shores of Little Lake Harris, there lies a storybook home waiting for its next chapter. Welcome to 198 W Cypress Avenue, a fully-renovated sanctuary of style and serenity, where modern luxury meets old-Florida charm on a sprawling, fenced-in lot. 3 bedrooms. 2 baths. Endless possibilities. Step inside, where sunlight spills across laminate flooring laid new in 2022, casting sparkle hues on quartz countertops that gleam like polished stone in the heart of the gourmet kitchen. The home breathes easy with all-new ducting, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical. Even the water that flows through this home has been softened and filtered for comfort and clarity. But this isn't just a house. It's a life reimagined. Step out back to discover a pool that shimmers like a sapphire under the Florida sun, with an upgraded pump and filtration system whispering quietly in the background. Nearby, a five-bed garden waits patiently for spring blooms or autumn vegetables, while a large shed and carport provide storage and shelter for all your tools, toys, and tales yet to be told. Need backup power? A generator inlet box stands ready. Want shade and peace? The screened-in porch is your front-row seat to Florida's famous sunsets and symphonies of songbirds. And for those drawn to the water, a private boat ramp to Little Lake Harris grants you exclusive access to one of Central Florida's most enchanting waterways. Small town living close to city amenities, this home is more than move-in ready. It's a chapter just waiting to be written. Will you be the author of its next adventure?
