DIRECT WATER FRONTAGE WITH CHAIN OF LAKES ACCESS, CHARMING, UPDATED HOME WITH GARAGE, LANAI, AND DOUBLE BOATHOUSE. Welcome home to this wonderful bungalow on a quiet street in the sought-after Grand Island Shores neighborhood. Arrive home and be greeted with a lush lawn accented with mature landscaping, and peeking up behind the recently replaced roof (2021) are lovely shade trees and tropical palms gracing the back yard. The expansive driveway leads into the side-entry garage, with a walkway directing you to the inviting front porch. A leaded glass door welcomes you inside, where you will find a lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated home with crown molding, Plantation shutters, Mahogany wood, and Travertine floors, tastefully decorated kitchen and baths, and so much more. The spacious front living/dining room area can be configured to suit your needs. It has large front-facing windows and direct access to the kitchen. The open-concept family room/kitchen area is the heart of this home, with stunning Travertine floors and two glass sliders to the expansive sunroom. The attractive kitchen offers custom wood cabinetry with glass front doors and convenient storage drawers, Granite counters, tile backsplash, and all kitchen appliances stay, including a French door refrigerator and double oven. A closet pantry and breakfast bar connect the adjacent family room, ideal for family and friend gatherings. Open the sliders and let the party flow out onto the sunroom with wood laminate floors and panoramic windows. Back inside is the owner’s suite with a walk-in closet, additional storage closet, and a private en-suite with a wood cabinet vanity holding dual glass vessel sinks, plus a tiled walk-in shower. A true split bedroom plan, the guest bedroom has direct access to the full hall bathroom, and the hall pocket door can be closed to create a private suite. The 1-car garage has two extra rooms; one housing the laundry area with sink and the other can be converted to a small workshop. Enjoy Florida living to its fullest in your private, screened-in lanai with a hot tub. Step into the backyard to find a storage shed and a covered boat dock with two slips for multiple boats/jet skis. The lovely lagoon/canal will take you onto gorgeous Lake Eustis to enjoy the entire highly coveted chain of lakes. What a wonderful place to call home!
