429 LAKE AUGUST DR Lake Placid, FL 33852

Lake front! 3/2/2 Quiet, safe, friendly neighborhood! If you're looking to get away from the hustle of the big city, heavy coast traffic, or just a nice place to retire this home might be for you. We are selling our lakefront with dock, 3 bedrooms 2 bath, 2 car garage, caged pool home. It is located in a friendly, safe, quiet neighborhood where golf carts, bike riders, and walkers are a regular site. People here smile, and wave, and watch out for each other. We love our community and our (much loved) home but we have decided to build a new home across the lake so our current home needs to be sold.

Our home has a metal roof, hurricane insulated impact garage door & windows (some with plantation shutters), newer pool solar panels, a 15x30 kidney shaped caged pool, and a fenced in back yard. A 2 car garage (with attic storage) and extra parking that opens to a nice sized indoor laundry room with an outside entrance door. From the laundry room you enter the kitchen (with some newer appliances) and dining area that has a view of the pool and lake. The cross ventilation from the kitchen window to the lake view is wonderful and we never need to run our ac during the winter months (Nov-Apr sometimes longer). The bedrooms are a split plan. The master bedroom with walk in closet is just off the dining room. It is painted in soft neutral colors ready for any decor style. The dining room is open to the living area with french doors that open to the pool lani. There are large windows from the front of the home which open and allow wonderful light and sunshine in the morning. Your view as you walk from the front porch into the front door leads you right out to the pool and lake. The lani provides you additional outside entertaining, and the pool and hot tub make for great fun in the sun. All rooms include nice ceiling fans and the living room has a fireplace for ambiance as well as an additional heat source during any chilly evening. The additional bedrooms are nice sized with a second full bath located between them.

Our home can be sold semi furnished (the furnishings are optional)

LOCATION, Location, location!!! Lake Placid is centrally located, a quaint small community loaded with lakes, history, and murals all throughout the town. The location is quiet, away from big city sirens, but just a one tank trip to the excitement of Disney, Key West, or either East or West Coast. It doesn't get much better than this! Lake Placid is the Caladium Capital of the world. The caladium fields are beautiful! We have a clown school, a train depot museum, and my last count included 45 murals painted around town. There are 88 lakes in our county. (Highlands County) great for fishing and fun. Come take a look and see what we have to offer.
