One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Convenience, location and flexibility all wrapped up into one spectacular home! Built in 1979, this five-bed, 2.5-bath home has been well-loved, maintained, and carefully updated over time. Approaching the property, you'll notice the new roof installed this year (2022), and the updated exterior with a new garage door and stone-cladding installed in 2018. It creates a welcoming feel that makes you feel at home before you even step foot in the house. Through the front door you enter the foyer that opens into the living room. A formal family room is to your left, easily convertible into a home office, play room, or flex space. The living room has vaulted ceilings and a marvelous fireplace, creating a focal point for the room. The combination of high ceilings and tons of natural light coming in through the french doors creates an open and airy environment, making it feel even larger. The kitchen was remodeled in 2019 with new shaker-style cabinets, exquisite high-end granite countertops and matching hardware. There are stainless appliances, a closet pantry, tray ceiling for the lighting, and a peninsula offering extra counter space for bar-style seating for casual dining or after school homework sessions. The peninsula divides the kitchen from the dining room, otherwise open, forming an entertainment space allowing even the largest groups of guests to have plenty of room. The triple-split floor plan has the bedrooms scattered throughout the house for privacy. The master suite is just off the kitchen, with a large footprint, window nook, hotel-style vanity, and a walk-in shower. A build-out/conversion was done on the back of the home, creating a mother-in-law suite with a separate private entrance, kitchenette and living room, a bedroom and a half bath. It's perfect for extended stay guests or an older child that wants a little more freedom. Are you an artist? It would make a remarkable home studio! The possibilities are endless. The backyard is fully fenced and level, great for four legged family members, ready for a swing set, fire pit, whatever your heart desires. Situated in the Barclay Woods neighborhood, the location is equally quiet and convenient, less than a quarter of a mile from Lake Orienta with public boat access, just over a mile from Uptown Altamonte for shopping and dining, and 1.25 miles from I-4 for quick commuting! New blown-in insulation was installed in 2022 when the new roof was put on and the home was re-plumbed in 2019. Schedule your private showing and make this home yours!
