Property Description

Welcome to this exceptional 3-bedroom, 2-bath Craftsman-style home located in the highly sought-after Woods of Lake Helen. Perfectly positioned on a professionally landscaped corner lot, this home offers the perfect blend of timeless design, modern comfort, and small-town charm. Step inside to an open-concept floor plan filled with natural light, high ceilings, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and plantation shutters throughout. The beautiful chef inspired kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring white cabinetry, a farmhouse sink, ample counter space, and an inviting layout ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The private primary suite is thoughtfully situated at the rear of the home, creating a peaceful retreat. The spa-inspired primary bathroom feels like something out of a luxury resort magazine with its oversized walk-in shower, dual vanities, custom tile flooring, abundant storage, and an impressive walk-in closet that offers more than enough room for your wardrobe and linens. Even the spacious laundry room has been designed with functionality and convenience in mind, making everyday chores a pleasure. Outside, you’ll immediately appreciate the exceptional curb appeal highlighted by stone-accented Craftsman columns, a large covered front porch perfect for relaxing in a rocking chair, and professionally maintained St. Augustine sod. The home is equipped with a full irrigation system supplied by a private irrigation well, helping keep the landscaping beautiful year-round. Out back, the oversized covered lanai overlooks a fully fenced backyard, providing the perfect space for entertaining, pets, or simply enjoying Florida’s beautiful weather. Located in the charming city of Lake Helen, affectionately known as “The Gem of Florida,” this home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy a true small-town lifestyle while remaining conveniently located between Orlando and Daytona Beach with quick access to I-4. Lake Helen is beloved for its locally owned restaurants, Saturday farmers market, beautiful tree-lined streets, and the unique distinction of having no traffic lights, creating a peaceful atmosphere that’s becoming increasingly difficult to find. This is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully maintained home in one of Central Florida’s most desirable communities. Schedule your private showing today and experience
