About this home
One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Double lot. No HOA. Room for your toys—just minutes from the heart of Downtown Sanford. Ideally located near the charm and character of Sanford’s Historic District, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with a 2-car garage offers a fantastic opportunity to create something truly special. With 1,620 square feet of living space, the layout provides a solid foundation for both everyday living and future updates. Built in 2002, the home features a functional split-bedroom floor plan with multiple living and dining areas that offer flexibility for a variety of uses. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, solid surface countertops and is centrally positioned, opening to the main living space and creating a natural gathering point.

Located less than two miles from Historic Downtown Sanford, you’ll enjoy easy access to a vibrant mix of locally owned restaurants, breweries, waterfront activities, boutique shopping, and year-round events—all while being tucked away in a more residential setting. The owner’s suite offers privacy and space with a vaulted ceiling and en-suite bath, while two additional bedrooms and a second full bath provide flexibility for guests, family, or a home office. The oversized backyard is a true highlight, featuring a screened porch and existing tiki bar—offering plenty of opportunity to create your own private outdoor retreat. Major updates have already been completed, including a new roof (2021), HVAC system (2021), and hot water heater (2023)—giving the next owner a head start on making it their own.
