About This Property

2 HOMES ON OVER HALF AN ACRE. Create your own mini farm homestead just minutes from Sanford’s charming historic district. This rare property features two detached homes on a spacious .51-acre lot, offering endless possibilities for multi-generational living, creative workspace, rental potential, or your own personal hobby farming. The main residence showcasing a modern kitchen, updated bathrooms, and new flooring throughout while preserving beautiful original hardwood flooring in select areas. Major improvements include a new roof (2022), whole-house rewiring (2022), and a newer HVAC system. A finished attic with durable flooring, foam insulation, and lighting provides additional flexible living or storage space. While many major upgrades have already been completed, a few unfinished projects remain, offering the next owner the opportunity to add their own finishing touches and personalize the home even further. The second home, a classic Jim Walter house, is currently used as a stained-glass studio and includes an upstairs efficiency area that offers a half bath that could be built out to a full bathroom perfect for guests house, mother-in-law suite, a home business, studio, or potential rental. Both homes share a single power meter. The property is currently on well and septic but can be connected to city water and sewer, providing future flexibility for improvements or expansion. With over half an acre of land, there’s plenty of room to create the perfect gardens, raise chickens, plant fruit trees, or simply enjoy wide-open space rarely found this close to town. Located a distance to Lake Monroe Park, and just minutes from historic downtown Sanford, shopping, dining, parks, airports, medical facilities, and easy access to I-4, this versatile property blends country charm with city convenience.
