About this home
2261 CHARLOTTE DRIVE
Fully renovated on nearly half an acre with no HOA and private Lake Brantley access, 2261 Charlotte Drive offers 3 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and 2,202 square feet of living space. Updates include new tile and vinyl plank flooring, a completely remodeled kitchen, three fully renovated bathrooms, and all-new lighting throughout. The kitchen features shaker cabinetry, stainless-steel appliances, quartz countertops, and a matching full-height quartz backsplash. Under-cabinet lighting provides additional task and accent lighting. The home has two separate living areas, including a front living room with double-height ceilings and a large wood-burning fireplace. LED accent lighting along the staircase and living-room ceiling adds a modern finish. All three bedrooms are located upstairs. The Florida room provides flexible additional space for an office, den, game room, playroom, or hobby room. A dedicated laundry closet provides convenience without taking away from the main living areas. The fully fenced backyard offers plenty of room for entertaining and includes mature trees, a garden area, and a large deck with a pergola. Water and electrical connections are already installed at the pergola for a future outdoor kitchen, bar, or entertaining setup. A gated entrance provides additional backyard access and storage space for boats, RVs, trailers, and other recreational equipment. The 24-by-24-foot garage includes a temperature-controlled storage room. There is a Tesla Charger installed in the garage. The water heater was replaced in 2024, while the roof, windows, and air-conditioning system were replaced in November 2017. The AC air handler is located indoors to protect it from the elements and help extend the system’s service life. Private access to the Lake Brantley neighborhood park is available for $39 annually and includes a playground and small-boat launch. The home is approximately five minutes from two grocery stores, Lake Brantley High School, and Forest Lake Elementary, with I-4 about 10 minutes away.

The numbers
What it really costs

$4,142 /mo · 10% down Conventional, 30-yr fixed at 6%
The assumptions
Above the FHA loan limit for our service areas, so Conventional is the default. VA buyers: switch below — $0 down.

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.

The edgeAI estimate is a starting point, not an appraisal or a broker price opinion. It is generated from public records, listing data and market modeling, and is subject to change once a licensed real estate professional personally inspects the property. Condition, floor, view and lot are not fully captured by any model — ask us for a full comparative market analysis.
