Dreams Do Come True! Straight Out of a Horror Movie — And Ready for Its Happy Ending! Calling all fearless renovators, visionary builders, and HGTV dreamers—this is the project you've been waiting for. Tucked away at the end of a quiet dead-end street in beautiful Deland, this 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom relic sits on over half an acre of prime Florida land. But be warned… this home is not for the faint of heart. With sagging floors, haunting vibes, and a décor style best described as “post-apocalyptic chic,” this place has seen better days—and a few things you probably can't unsee. But behind the cobwebs and chaos lies a spectacular opportunity to either bring this beast back to life or tear it down and build the home of your dreams. Surrounded by lush land and ultimate privacy, the lot alone is a gem—over half an acre at the end of a dead-end road, offering peace, quiet, and a location that’s simply unbeatable. Bring your contractor, your courage, and your creative vision. Priced to sell, this is your chance to transform the nightmare into a dream home. Enter if you dare... but come prepared to fall in love with the potential.
