    DIRECT LAKEFRONT • PRIVATE BEACH • SUNSET VIEWS • NEW PRICE! Now $524,900! Welcome to Sunset Manor, a rare opportunity for TRUE DIRECT FRONTAGE on Lake Jackson—the large freshwater lake at the heart of Sebring. Unlike many lake-area properties, this home sits directly on the water—not across the street—with 50' of private sandy shoreline. Enjoy boating, fishing, skiing, kayaking and paddleboarding right from your backyard, plus spectacular year-round sunset views from the Florida room and expansive lakefront deck. This updated 3BR/3BA home offers 2,049 LSF plus approximately 340 additional sq. ft. in the bonus/office and rear Florida room. Enjoy 1930s character with modern improvements including updated windows throughout, fresh interior paint (6/2026), new A/C (6/2026), all-new kitchen appliances (2025), real wood flooring on the main level and a metal roof. The lakeview Florida room features impact windows and electric shades, while a private bonus room/office with mini-split A/C provides flexible additional space. The deep .35-acre lot (50' x 305') features mature oaks, palms and fruit trees, lake-fed irrigation & plenty of room to enjoy the waterfront setting. LOCATION IS A STANDOUT! Walk to Sebring Waterfront Park, Historic Downtown Sebring, eateries, the library, Highlands Lakeside Theatre and the Historic Circle. Formerly operated as an Airbnb, the property's location and flexible layout make it ideal for residential living and may also offer potential for a professional office or other permitted use, subject to applicable zoning and regulations. Private beach • Direct Lake access • Sunset views • Freshwater recreation • Walkable downtown location. A unique opportunity to own true Lake Jackson waterfront!
