About this home
Priced to sell - Enjoy the best of Florida lake-community living in this well-maintained single-family home located within Royal Harbor, a gated 55+ waterfront community on the Harris Chain of Lakes in Tavares, Florida. Designed for both relaxation and an active lifestyle, Royal Harbor offers residents lake access to one of Central Florida’s most scenic and navigable waterways—ideal for boating, fishing, kayaking, and sunset cruises. Built in 2002, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 1,615 square feet of living space on a .21-acre lot (on the larger side for Royal Harbor). The open, light-filled layout is enhanced by large windows throughout, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere. A versatile bonus room with sliding glass doors provides flexible space for a sitting area, formal dining room, home office, or hobby room. The primary suite features sliders leading outdoors and an en-suite bath with a large single vanity, separate soaking tub, walk-in shower, and private water closet. A guest bedroom includes a walk-in closet, and improvements in recent years add both comfort and value, including newer laminate flooring, LED recessed lighting, and a newer kitchen. The kitchen was remodeled in 2023 with granite countertops and slow close wood cabinetry that has dovetail construction. It’s a breeze to bring in groceries from the garage through the laundry room right into the kitchen and pantry. Outdoor living is essential to the Florida lifestyle, and this home offers multiple ways to enjoy it. The back porch is an all-season lanai, providing a comfortable, enclosed space to relax and entertain year-round. In addition, a separate screened-in birdcage on the side of the home, finished with pavers over concrete slab, offers another inviting outdoor area—perfect for enjoying fresh air, garden views, or quiet mornings. With no homes directly behind, these outdoor spaces provide flexibility, privacy, and an ideal setting for indoor-outdoor living. Recent updates include a new AC (2023), new laminate flooring (2023) and a new Whirlpool washer and dryer (2023). The roof was replaced at the end of 2017. Royal Harbor residents enjoy a resort-style, golf-cart-friendly community featuring a clubhouse, fitness center, pool and spa, billiards room, arts and crafts space, card rooms, library, fishing dock, pickleball and bocce courts, biking and walking paths, and RV, boat, and trailer storage. The community’s waterfront setting and active social calendar make it a sought-after destination for full-time residents and seasonal homeowners alike. Just across the way, you’ll find public boat ramps at Hickory Point Recreation Park. Tavares is also the Seaplane Capital and is sandwiches between Florida hot spots Mount Dora and The Villages. Golf courses and country clubs abound in Central Florida as well. This home offers comfort, convenience, and a true Harris Chain of Lakes lifestyle in one of Tavares’ most desirable waterfront communities.
