PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

**Major price reduction!!** This picturesque, impeccably maintained 4-BEDROOM POOL HOME ON 2.28 FENCED ACRES exudes charm and perfection in every way! Zoned for horses. No HOA! Located in a quiet, highly desirable area in south DeLand on a paved, county-maintained road, this property offers wonderful privacy yet is only minutes from downtown, several shopping malls, and easy access to I-4. Lots of updates include a NEW ROOF and NEW SKYLIGHTS in 2021, and a NEW OVERSIZED 2-CAR GARAGE IN 2018. The house has so many wonderful features and amenities, including an open concept floor plan with volume ceilings in the living areas and a cozy, WOOD-BURNING FIREPLACE. The spacious master bedroom has FRENCH DOORS that open onto the pool area – what a lovely, serene way to start your day with a cup of coffee or morning swim! The master bedroom has a walk-in closet and a double wall closet, and the master bath has been remodeled to include 2 vanities and a walk-in shower. The 3rd bedroom, which is currently being used as an office, also opens onto the pool – take a break from your work for a dip in the pool! A wraparound courtyard/lanai at the rear of the home means that four different rooms open up onto the pool area, including the master bedroom, the 3rd bedroom, the second bathroom, and the dining room, which also has FRENCH DOORS! The large 4th bedroom (19' x 17') has a walk-in closet and is currently being used as a game room, but would also make a wonderful family room. All bedrooms feature luxury vinyl planking. The kitchen has been completely remodeled with 42" glazed wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless 2-bowl sink. The heated INGROUND POOL WITH LARGE SCREENED ENCLOSURE recently had a new vinyl liner installed. There is a 21x12 lanai under trussed roofing in addition to the large pool-deck and patio, resurfaced in 2024 -- all this within the screened enclosure, making it a great space for entertaining! This home offers enhanced security with concrete-block construction, STORM SHUTTERS, and a WHOLE HOUSE GENERATOR installed in 2021. Energy efficiency is also enhanced because each concrete block used in the construction of the home is filled with foam insulation. The entire property is FENCED and there is a beautiful DRIVE-THROUGH BARN (40' X 32') with water and electric, great for horses or as a workshop or studio. There is a CIRCULAR DRIVEWAY with gates at either end and an ELECTRONIC GATE OPENER. The OVERSIZED 2-CAR GARAGE (25’ x 24’) was built in 2018 with stunning stone facing that matches the stone facing on the house and a short roofed breezeway connecting the house and the garage. All this in a private setting yet just minutes to historic, charming downtown DeLand, called the “Athens of Florida,” with many fine restaurants, art galleries, art museum, Athens Theater, Artisan Alley, Stetson University, and the much-loved Friday Farmer’s Market. Proximity to the I-4 exit offers easy access to Orlando or Daytona. Don’t delay -- this home HAS IT ALL and is just waiting for YOU!
