Sail away to the waterfront community of Royal Harbor in Tavares, FL! This gated, 55+ community is full of quiet streets and active lifestyle amenities. Royal Harbor offers its residents a variety of recreation choices. Enjoy events hosted at the Club House and Social Hall which has a full catering kitchen, stage, dance floor, and space for dinners, dances and entertainment with a food truck party every 3rd Thursday. This well maintained home allows you to be carefree as it has a low maintenance yard, landscaped with rock and mulched flower beds (irrigation can be reconnected). The exterior paint was just refreshed in June of 2024. When you walk inside, you can let the robot vacuum take care of the recently installed luxury vinyl plank floors throughout the home. A well appointed roomy kitchen with 40” tall upper cabinets, eat-in bar, pantry, newer fridge and stove, and breakfast nook provide plenty of space for the chef of the household. Before heading up to the large loft area with its own kitchenette and half bath, you’ll find a full bathroom across from a second bedroom with a walk-in closet. The loft is the perfect space for an office, media room, game room, or even a third bedroom, and comes with a peek-a-boo lake view! The primary bedroom will check all the boxes and impress with its HUGE walk-in closet and glass sliders allowing private entry onto the lanai! The covered lanai space has been enclosed with vinyl to create a dry space to enjoy all year long and includes privacy shades for that extra touch. Off of the lanai you have a finished concrete pad with majestic palm trees for your outdoor entertainment space. With no home directly behind you, this special lot exudes a sense of an extended backyard. The oversized two car garage has a finished floor, extra storage closet, and a fully extendable exterior screen if you wanted to use the space in any flex capacity.
If the activity calendar isn’t enough, the HOA also includes: fitness center, billiards room, arts and crafts room, library, card room, and even a computer room. With a resort-style pool and spa, enjoy cooling off on those hot summer days after playing tennis, pickleball, shuffleboard, bocce, or riding your bike through the meandering trails and paths through the lush landscape of the community. If you don’t like to bike, no worries, hop in your golf cart and away you go! The community sits on the shores of Lake Harris which are a part of the Lake Harris Chain of Lakes here in Lake County and offers RV, boat and trailer storage. Multiple marinas and restaurants are accessible by boat through this waterway either from Royal Harbor or Hickory Point Park across the street. Tavares is officially known as America’s Seaplane City with the Tavares Seaplane Base (FA1) and a 3,000 foot FAA approved virtual runway on Lake Dora. You can take to the skies or learn to race sailboats at the Lake Eustis Sailing Club. Or join the social congeniality of the Mount Dora Yacht Club. You’ll find events ranging from antique boat shows to sailing regattas to Bass fishing tournaments on these lakes. Tavares is an ideal location to explore the state from.
