419 E Orange Ave, Eustis, FL 32726

Fall in love with the history of this charming home while appreciating modern upgrades of new A/C unit, all new duct work, alarm system, & upgraded electrical & plumbing. One of the original owners claim to fame was discovering the Mediterranean fruit fly while working as a Florida fruit inspector in the 40's, who resided in home for nearly 60 years with his wife & children. Old friends of the Carter Family from Plains GA. After moving to assisted living in the 90's money was found hidden throughout house by family. Original wood floors, bead board wainscoting, two fireplaces & exposed beams add to the interior charm along with new kitchen, SS appliances, 36" Farmhouse porcelain sink, Soapstone Quartz counters & subway tile. Possible master bedroom downstairs and 3 bedrooms upstairs plus family room, dining room & two living rooms. Two half bathrooms, one upstairs and one downstairs (seller will install shower to downstairs half bath upon accepted contract) The ornamental iron work, balconies, arched windows along with its inviting front entrance, make this well built house stand out from the others. Insurance will be a breeze, with recent 4 Point Inspection and termite bond. Used as an office in recent years but could be your perfect HOME with parking in back or even bring back the glorious garden that use to grace the backyard with field stone waterfall and fish pond to its 1940's glory. Walking distance to Lake Eustis, galleries, restaurants, shopping. Easy commute to Orlando with new 429 Expressway.
