The Land

This 10+ acre homestead is anything but flat and ordinary. The rolling topography winds through mature woods, past a stocked pond complete with a staircase and railing, and up to a hilltop utility shed with electricity — a perfect workshop, storage space, or creative hideaway. Wear your walking shoes; there is plenty to explore. The left side of the property is set up for the hobby farmer or self-sufficiency enthusiast, featuring fenced pasture areas, dedicated watering stations, a large chicken coop, and raised planting beds. This land has genuine mini-farm potential.

To the right, a spacious den/office/TV room with custom built-ins provides the perfect flex space. To the left, a formal dining room features crown molding and plantation shutters.

The kitchen is a true showpiece: tumbled stone tile, gourmet appliances, rich granite countertops, an abundance of cabinetry, a large stainless sink with drain bowl and cutting board, and a long breakfast bar. The adjacent breakfast area flows seamlessly into the family room, which opens to a covered, paved lanai with a wood-burning fireplace — the ideal setting for Florida evenings year-round.

Outside, the pool beckons with elegant water features, a sun shelf with bubblers, an umbrella slot, and a sit shelf — resort-style living right in your backyard.

Upstairs

The ensuite bath features a large soaking tub, granite countertops, double sinks with a dedicated vanity, a private water closet, and an additional walk-in closet. Every detail was designed with comfort and privacy in mind.

Cross the upstairs landing and you’ll find three additional bedrooms. One enjoys its own private bath with a walk-in shower. The remaining two bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath with a tub/shower combo. Completing the upper level is a dedicated laundry room with hanging and folding space and a full-size stackable unit — thoughtfully placed right where you need it.
