This very special DeLand, farmhouse style was constructed in 1945 as a family home for an existing citrus grove operation. Over the years, the grove was abandoned and the land was divided. Many of the home's features are like stepping back in time. The lumber used was milled at the old Bond Lumber Company in Lake Helen with beautiful heart pine flooring, wooden wainscoting ceilings and walls in some areas. Extensive use of ceiling custom features and built in bookshelves. The cozy, cook's kitchen was added at a later time. Master bedroom offers full walk-in closet and master bath, Light and bright office overlooks the grounds. Dual a/c systems, wood burning fireplace, large breakfast nook, plus formal dining room. All of the home's windows have been replaced with energy saving double panel, vinyl windows. Older garage (22'X20') with workshop and garage apartment (needs much work), small frame garage (also needs work). Many upgrades over the years. Located on true country lane with easy access to both I-4 and all DeLand features.
