About this home
Your Cozy Corner-Lot Escape Awaits. There’s something special about a home that just feels right the moment you arrive, and this charming, fully furnished, updated home on Chestnut Street delivers exactly that. Nestled on a desirable corner lot, it welcomes you with inviting curb appeal, easy-care landscaping, and durable vinyl siding designed for simple, stress-free living. Start your day in the spacious screened-in porch with an outdoor swing couch, your own private retreat, where gentle breezes and quiet moments set the tone for relaxed living. With beautiful wood-look tile flooring and plenty of room to unwind, it’s the perfect spot for morning coffee, evening conversations, or simply enjoying the outdoors in comfort. Just inside, a bright Florida room connects seamlessly to the living area, filling the home with natural light and creating an inviting space to relax, read, or entertain. While officially a one-bedroom home, don’t let that limit your imagination. The Florida room with heat and air, features a sofa that converts into a comfortable futon bed, and an additional cot stored in the primary bedroom provides extra sleeping space for guests, making it easy to accommodate family and friends. The home continues to impress with a thoughtfully remodeled kitchen, redesigned for openness and flow, complete with a built-in pantry and easy connection to the living and dining areas. Recent improvements include a brand-new kitchen faucet (2026), adding both style and convenience to the heart of the home. Warm laminate flooring, fresh interior paint, and updated ceiling fans enhance the light, airy feel throughout. The coastal-inspired bathroom offers both charm and functionality, featuring dual sinks, two toilets, and a walk-in shower, an unexpectedly spacious and convenient design. Newly installed bathroom faucets (2026) add a fresh touch to this unique space. Additional updates last May 2026 provide valuable peace of mind, including recently drained and replaced elements to the 2018 water heater, helping ensure reliable hot water and efficient operation. Set on a desirable corner lot on Chestnut Street, this home welcomes you with great curb appeal, durable vinyl siding, and low-maintenance landscaping, so you can spend more time enjoying your surroundings. A 2012 HVAC system provides reliable year-round comfort and peace of mind. Whether you’re looking for a cozy full-time residence, a seasonal escape, or a smart investment, this home invites you to slow down, settle in, and truly enjoy where you live................Hawthorne at Leesburg is an active, resident owned, 55+ cooperative, waterfront, gated community, with beautifully landscaped grounds, lakes with illuminated fountains and a relaxing and comfortable gazebo.

Local Insight
At $89K in a city where median homes run $380K–$480K, this is genuinely cheap, but that price reflects the 1976 build, single bedroom layout, and $397 monthly HOA in a 55+ cooperative—you're buying entry into an age-restricted community, not a path to appreciation in Leesburg's broader market. The location trade-off is real: you're outside the downtown revival and waterfront premium zones that drive value here, so this works as a seasonal or retirement foothold rather than an investment play. The 908 square feet and single bedroom severely limit your exit options if circumstances change, so do the math on whether this fits a long-term lifestyle or just looks cheap on the surface.
