Yes, there are stairs. But at the top, you'll find a renovated 1,050 sq. ft. second-floor apartment with no one living above you, in a building with concrete floors and concrete block walls that keep noise to a minimum. It's a short walk from downtown Eustis, Ferran Park and the Lake Eustis waterfront, with room to spread out and updates you'll notice right away.
