“Many people that I meet who are looking at The Golden Triangle area for their next home are doing so because they are seeking space with little or no HOA. Also, they’re looking for a place for their animals and their hobbies, whether it is rebuilding that special car, growing an amazing garden, or having some horses.” Lauralyn Lane, Realtor in the Mount Dora, Florida area and country lifestyle Real Estate specialist.
Grow your own vegetables, keep beautiful horses, and star-gaze each night from the comfort of your own Florida home with land and acreage.
