About this home

LAKEFRONT HOME + PRIVATE SECOND RESIDENCE WITH MONTH RENTAL POTENTIAL OR PERFECT FOR MULTIGENERATIONAL LIVING! This unique DeLand property offers a rare combination of waterfront living, privacy, flexibility and existing rental income — all with NO HOA on 2 acres of land.

The renovated secondary residence has had solid rental history over the past three years bringing in at least $1250 monthly when occupied.

The separate secondary residence provides its own kitchen, full bathroom and living space, a single bedroom, and offers genuine privacy and independence for extended family, guests or a tenant and incredible views from inside and out on the porch.

UPDATES & MAJOR SYSTEMS: New flooring, new septic pump, new well pump and filtration system, 2026 air conditioner and a 2017 roof. new appliances in the main house include a new stove, washer, and dryer. The secondary residence has undergone extensive improvements including new aluminum siding, new exterior paint, waterproof foam insulation and a new water heater.

TrustLine Real Estate is not the listing brokerage for this home. It is listed by CHARLES RUTENBERG REALTY ORLANDO. We can arrange a showing and get your questions answered either way.

  • Whether it is still available, confirmed with the listing agent rather than read off this page.
  • A showing arranged around your schedule.
  • The paperwork the listing leaves out: association rules and budget, any seller’s disclosure, and the flood zone.
  • What comparable homes nearby actually closed at, not what they were listed at.
