Quiet, peaceful, serene, secluded are just a few words to describe this country oasis. This mid century modern home boast an impressive open floor plan with plenty of room for entertaining guests. The kitchen was just remodeled and a new Central A/C system put in. There is a over sized one car garage attached by a breezeway and two rooms which could be used for anything from storage to workshops or even guest quarters. Sit back and relax in rear parlor while watching the wildlife refuge against a setting sun over historic Lake Colby. Mins away from Ivy Hawn Charter school in historic downtown Lake Helen. All of this yet minutes away from I-4, shopping and one of the best schools in the County.
Beautiful serene location, located down a country lane located on Lake Coby. This very open and bright home has been very well maintaned and loved. As you enter into the open living room that has laminate wood flooring you have a feeling of peace. Past this living room is a open family room and dining area, with a decorated working fireplace, and this room overlooks Lake Coby (that has water). Views from the back are expansive. It is very peaceful to sit on the back wood deck and watch the numerous wildlife. Besides the living room, and family room, there is also a den/office or informal living space. The third bedroom has custom built-ins. There is a detached two car garage (with one garage door) because the extra room is used as a hobby room or additional storage space. Quiet secluded hot tub is great for peaceful relaxing. This home is located behind the Cassadaga Spirtual camp so it is quite protected and secluded. And, plus . . . . . . . a extra building lot in included.
