Property Description

 

Distinctive mid-century architecture, substantial system improvements, and nearly half an acre in Sanford’s Golf Cart District. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home pairs vaulted wood-beam ceilings, original hardwood floors, and expansive windows with improvements that make a meaningful difference in everyday ownership. The current owners have replaced the HVAC systems, added dedicated bedroom mini-splits, encapsulated the crawlspace, and installed many new Andersen windows and a new custom exterior sliding door. Additional improvements include fresh exterior paint, stained concrete flooring, professional landscaping, irrigation, and closet organization systems. Washer and dryer are included. The living room’s striking fireplace and exposed beams anchor the home’s distinctive interior, while the kitchen connects easily to the living and dining spaces. A bright breezeway provides flexible space for a home office, studio, additional sitting area, or hobbies. Outside, a circular brick driveway, mature oak trees, private courtyard, and generous backyard create multiple places to gather, garden, and unwind. The oversized garage offers additional storage and space for projects and special interests. Located in San Lanta, outside the Historic District boundaries, the home offers golf-cart access to Historic Downtown Sanford’s restaurants, shops, events, and RiverWalk. Architectural character, meaningful improvements, and room to enjoy the outdoors—all in one memorable property.
