THE SETTING, AND THE DETAILS
A closer look.
A FRESH NEW LOOK. ROOM TO BREATHE. A FLORIDA LIFESTYLE WORTH COMING HOME TO! Welcome to 487 Ocho Rios Avenue, where a private quarter-acre homesite meets a refreshed interior and the pleasures of a recreation-rich community. This home was recently taken off the market for improvements throughout, including NEW LUXURY VINYL PLANK FLOORING, FRESH PAINT, AND A NEW ROOF installed completes this impressive refresh. The result is a beautiful, more polished setting, ready for its next chapter. Tucked into the established Groves at Baytree neighborhood in Tavares, this 2015-built, block-construction, 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence delivers 1,542 square feet of thoughtfully designed, single-story living, and the Florida lifestyle you’ve been waiting for. Step inside to discover an open, connected living experience designed for real life. Natural light fills the welcoming great room, where attractive plank flooring creates a warm, modern backdrop for relaxed evenings and gatherings with friends. The kitchen opens toward the main living area across a generous, curved breakfast bar, ideal for coffee, casual meals, and conversation while dinner comes together. Enjoy solid-surface countertops, rich wood cabinetry, generous prep space, and breakfast-bar seating that keeps everyone connected. Just beyond, a charming breakfast nook offers a sunny spot to start the day, while a separate dining room provides a dedicated setting for dinner parties, celebrations, or Sunday meals. Sliding doors bring the outdoors into view. The split-bedroom design creates a welcome sense of separation. Your primary suite is a comfortable personal retreat with a spacious walk-in closet and its own en-suite bathroom. Two additional bedrooms and a second full bath flex easily into guest rooms, a home office, or creative space. An interior laundry room, central air conditioning, and attached two car garage add the practical conveniences that make everyday life easier. And then there’s the outdoor potential. Set on an approximately ONE-QUARTER-ACRE LOT, the expansive, PRIVATELY FENCED BACKYARD offers room to spread out. Imagine morning coffee in the fresh air, weekend cookouts, a garden filled with color, space for your four-legged companions, or evenings enjoying Florida’s beautiful weather. It’s breathing room that’s increasingly hard to find, a private outdoor canvas waiting for your personal touch. Life at GROVES AT BAYTREE extends beyond your front door. Spend warm afternoons at the COMMUNITY POOL, enjoy the neighborhood PLAYGROUND and PARK, or take advantage of the CLUBHOUSE, FITNESS CENTER, and BASKETBALL and RACQUETBALL facilities. Sidewalks and neighborhood walking areas invite a stroll, while the community’s recreational amenities make it easy to enjoy an active Florida lifestyle close to home. When you’re ready to explore, downtown Tavares, known as AMERICA’S SEAPLANE CITY, brings a whole new dimension to your weekends and evenings. Watch seaplanes arrive on Lake Dora, stroll the waterfront at Wooton Park, enjoy lakeside dining, or head out for boating and fishing adventures on the Harris Chain of Lakes. Mount Dora, shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences are close by. This is more than an address. It’s a refreshed home, an oversized private yard, an amenity-filled community, and a chance to experience Central Florida on your own terms.
