About this home
801 LAKE SHORE DRIVE
Waterfront estate in Palmora Park, one of Leesburg's most sought-after lakefront neighborhoods, offering 4,623 square feet under heat and air with 264 feet of direct frontage on Lake Harris and full access to the Harris Chain of Lakes. Set on 1.23 acres, this 1930 Mediterranean Revival estate includes a 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath main residence with attached one-car garage, a detached boathouse with a 1-bed/1-bath guest apartment, and a detached multi-bay garage with 28'x21' workshop, 9'x8' storage room, and half bath. The main home features a grand foyer with arched double doors and twisted Corinthian columns, an open kitchen with center island cooktop, quartz countertops, stainless commercial-style hood, and painted brick accent wall. Hardwood floors flow through oversized bedrooms with crown molding. A residential lift connects levels. Large windows and multiple screened porches deliver panoramic lake views from nearly every entertaining space. The grounds are equally compelling: a stone-walled outdoor kitchen and patio, shuffleboard court, mature palm and oak canopy, manicured lawn stretching to the waterfront, private dock, and iron-fenced lake access. The boathouse features a fully enclosed ground-level boat garage with roll-up door, electric boat lift, and reinforced concrete construction, as functional as any vehicle garage. Above it, the guest apartment offers its own screened balcony overlooking Lake Harris, ideal as guest quarters, rental income, or a private home office. The 264 feet of lake frontage, 1.23-acre lot, estate layout, and architectural character are irreplaceable. Direct waterfront access from the property to the lake with no road to cross. Waterfront estates with multiple usable structures in Palmora Park rarely come to market. Minutes from downtown Leesburg, the Florida Turnpike, and The Villages. Kayak, pontoon, or bass fish directly from your dock with access to Lake Harris, Little Lake Harris, Lake Eustis, Lake Dora, and Lake Griffin. 13 month Home Warranty Included!

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
