Property Description
J.G. Ray-built beauty on a generous oak-canopied corner lot directly across from Lake Gertrude Park-about 1.2 miles to historic Downtown Mount Dora (a quick bike or ~5-minute drive) and steps to the paved Lake Gertrude walking loop. A magnificent heritage live oak draped in Spanish moss shades the front lawn and sets a postcard scene from the porch-its low, sturdy limb is swing-ready. Wide windows frame park greenery and bathe the home in natural light. The easy, open flow includes welcoming Living & Dining Rooms, a cozy sunroom, and a spacious 30' Florida Room that lives large for everyday lounging, game nights, or indoor-outdoor entertaining. Glass doors open to the patio and lovingly tended gardens. Period details add warmth and character-built-in bookcases, a fireplace with marble hearth, classic tile floors, and rich wood kitchen cabinetry with a timeless, vintage feel. Storage is a standout: large closets uncommon for 1950s homes keep everything neatly tucked away. Adjoining the attached garage you'll find a handy workroom plus a cheerful laundry room; a convenient half bath services the patio and backyard. Major systems add confidence with a 2018 water heater and 2022 HVAC. Function meets flexibility in this 1950 charmer offering 2 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. Keep the mid-century personality or re-imagine with your own updates while capitalizing on the location, light, and storybook oak-and-moss backdrop. Priced right for a quick sale and offered AS IS. The roof will need replacement, and the plumbing is the original galvanized steel-reported to be in great condition. If you've been waiting for a classic Lake Gertrude Park address with authentic craftsmanship, beautiful natural light, and a signature live-oak canopy with a swing-ready limb, this is the one.
