Property Description

Discover a truly special piece of Lake Lotela, one of Avon Park's most beautiful and desirable lakes where timeless character, peaceful waterfront living, and exceptional versatility come together. Set on nearly an acre of lakefront property, this 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom, one-of-a-kind retreat offers the charm of a classic lakeside home with the modern comforts and flexibility today's buyer is looking for. The main residence features 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and is filled with character from another era, including beautifully preserved original hardwood floors, doors, and hardware. Thoughtful updates blend seamlessly with the home's original charm, including a renovated kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, ample cabinetry, and abundant natural light. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a private retreat, complete with a beautiful clawfoot tub, and an enclosed balcony overlooking the tranquil waters of Lake Lotela. The guest bedroom and bathroom are located down stairs. Outdoor living is at the heart of this property. A charming wraparound porch provides the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee, entertain friends, or take in the peaceful lake views. A spacious screened lanai/gazebo and large courtyard create an exceptional setting for gatherings, while the expansive grounds offer plenty of room to garden, relax, or simply enjoy the privacy and beauty of the property. Best of all, the property features its own private sandy beach, creating a true lakeside escape right in your backyard. Adding tremendous versatility is the detached guest cottage, offering a separate bedroom, bathroom, and kitchenette. Whether used as a private mother-in-law suite, guest quarters, home office, or additional living space, the cottage provides options rarely found in lakefront properties. It also creates an excellent opportunity for additional rental income. For those looking for an investment, this property has tremendous potential as an Airbnb or short-term rental. The metal roof and a new AC were installed in 2022. Properties with this combination of Lake Lotela frontage, nearly an acre of land, original character, private beach, detached guest cottage, and income-producing potential rarely come available. Whether you're searching for a full-time residence, weekend lake retreat, multigenerational property, or an investment opportunity, this exceptional property offers a lifestyle and flexibility that is truly hard to duplicate.
