About This Property

2 HOMES ON OVER HALF AN ACRE! Create your own mini farm or homestead just minutes from Sanford’s charming historic district. This rare property features two detached homes on a spacious 0.51-acre lot, offering endless possibilities for multi-generational living, rental income, a home-based business, or creative workspace. The main residence has been thoughtfully updated with a modern kitchen, updated bathrooms, and new flooring, while still preserving beautiful original hardwood floors 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 valuable additional space for storage, workspace, or flexible living. While many key upgrades have been completed, a few unfinished projects remain giving the next owner the opportunity to add their own personal touches. The second home, a classic two-story Jim Walter house, is currently used as a stained-glass studio and features an upstairs 864 sq ft efficiency space with a half bath that could be converted into a full bathroom. Ideal for a guest house, in-law suite, studio, home business, or potential rental. The property is serviced by well and septic, with the option to connect to city water and sewer for added future flexibility. With over half an acre, there’s ample room for gardening, chickens, fruit trees, or simply enjoying open space rare this close to town. Conveniently located near Lake Monroe Park and just minutes from historic downtown Sanford, shopping, dining, medical facilities, airports, and easy access to I-4, this unique property offers the perfect blend of country living and city convenience.
