One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Discover a true hidden gem on the shores of Lake Nettie, in the highly desired East Crooked Lake area—just five minutes from the charm and energy of historic Mount Dora. More than a home, this is a private tropical retreat where every day feels like a vacation. Recently renovated with high-end finishes, it offers the perfect blend of serenity and convenience, with shopping, dining, and entertainment moments away. Some lake buyers are drawn to the Chain of Lakes, but Lake Nettie offers something different—tranquil waters, no public access, and the rare luxury of true privacy. It’s large enough for skiing, wakeboarding, jet skiing, and fishing, yet calm enough to enjoy peaceful waterfront living. That sense of quiet makes it an ideal and safe place for families to play, swim, or raise children without the constant activity and wildlife of the chain. And with multiple public boat ramps to the Harris Chain literally a few minutes away—and your own private ramp on your property—you can easily explore both whenever you wish. It’s truly the best of both worlds! Step outside and the lake becomes the backdrop for your personal resort. From the expansive upper deck with hot tub, enjoy sweeping views of the water, pool, and lush tropical landscaping. The centerpiece is a massive 58,000-gallon custom pool reaching 10 feet deep, surrounded by beautiful custom stonework along the walkways, benches, pool sides, waterfall, and grotto. This one-of-a-kind design creates the perfect tropical ambiance to gather, relax, and play. Paired with an outdoor kitchen, shaded lounge area with outdoor billiard table, full pool bath complete with private sauna, the outdoor spaces are built for true resort-style living. A sandy beach, private dock with boat lift, and abundant storage make this the ultimate lakefront playground—all with no HOA restrictions. Inside, the main level features an open living and dining space that flows to the deck, a spacious master suite with panoramic lake views, spa-like bath, and oversized closets, plus a second bathroom and versatile second room ideal for a home office or nursery. The walk-out lower level offers a second living area, two large bedrooms, a third full bath, and enough space to potentially create a second kitchen—perhaps for multi-generational living or a private guest apartment. Comparable Mount Dora lakefront homes would cost hundreds of thousands more, making this property a rare opportunity to enjoy resort-style living, unmatched privacy, and incredible value just minutes from the artsy, vibrant lifestyle of downtown Mount Dora.
