2480 topping place

The drive along East Crooked Lake is one of the loveliest in Central Florida as it winds along this spring fed lake with the hillside homes of varied designs and architecture. This calming, passive ambiance feels remote, yet the location is only two miles from downtown Mt. Dora and downtown Eustis. 2480 Topping Place fits this setting perfectly with its Victorian architecture with gorgeous waterfront views. Framed with lush landscaping this private half acre property makes for a distinctive residence in a prime area, just down the road from birding and nature trails of Hidden Waters Preserve. Built in 1998, this nine room two story home features 4 bedrooms with 2 ½ baths. Pride of ownership is evident in the homes condition and the quality improvements made throughout. The large covered porch welcomes you into the spacious center hallway with hardwood flooring which opens to lakeside views, the Living Room, Dining Room, Great Room, and Study (or 4th Bedroom). Dining Room features include custom painted walls, chair rail, crown molding, plantation shutters, and ceiling medallion with brass chandelier and the cozy living room is partially octagonal with plantation shutters and crown molding. The large Great Room with soaring ceilings features a two-story window wall facing the lake, electric fireplace, ceiling fan, recessed lighting and custom built-in media center. The modern kitchen opens to the Great Room, lakeside views and a deck facing the lake to enjoy morning coffee, breezes, and sunsets. The Master Bedroom and Master Bathroom are updated and spacious. The upstairs features a loft area overlooking the Great Room below with spectacular views of the lake and two lovely bedrooms with Jack & Jill bathroom between.
