Virtually Staged. MAXIMUM PRIVACY - ELEVATED! This Hidden Home provides Complete Seclusion while still being just minutes to Shopping, Restaurants and the I-4. The home features almost 2,500SF under air and is located on a densely wooded 2.53-Acre parcel with long private drive and is not visible from the paved road or by any neighbors. This three-level home provides spectacular Tree Top Views of a Native Hardwood Forest in the Blackwater Creek Basin. There is no HOA or CDD and is Marksman friendly. If you demand to hold the High Ground this home RISES to the challenge. The home features three levels and the two upper living levels are elevated 7’ above the slab on 9.5’ Cement Pillars. It would be next to impossible for this home to ever sustain flood damage. The Ground Level features three car covered parking, a covered lanai and a workshop area. During original construction the ground was built up and the slab poured above grade. The home is generator ready for easy connection. The Second Level features a Large Rustic Living room with Exposed Beam, High Ceilings, Wood Burning Fireplace and room for large or multiple furniture groupings. The living room features a 12’ patio slider with amazing view from both inside and outside on the Covered Balcony which faces the entrance to the property. The recently Remodeled Kitchen features White Shaker Cabinetry with ample storage, Granite Countertops, Stainless Appliances, Breakfast Bar, and the Laundry Closet. The Dining Room is between the kitchen and living room with a patio slider for views of the side yard and the Rear Covered Balcony and Stairway to the back yard. The Third Level features three bedrooms with a Split Bedroom Floor plan layout. The Primary Suite has a Vaulted Ceiling, Patio Slider to a Private Covered Balcony, Walk In Closet and En suite Bathroom with Walk In Shower. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are on the opposite side of the third level and share Bathroom 2. The flooring and bathrooms are ready for you to update to your own personal style and taste whenever you are ready. This is a must-see one-of-a-kind property. Your nights and weekends will feel like you are on vacation thousands of miles away from it all. Roof was replaced in 2018. The wood decks, stairs, and cedar siding have received recent maintenance work. Survey available. The parcel has land for a private driveway all the way to Timberwood but it is uncleared. Currently, the owners use a deeded easement for the front part of the driveway and it becomes fully private once you reach the security gate. Seller says the Well, Septic and HVAC are well maintained and in good working order. The Tankless Electric Water Heater was recently installed. HVAC is older. Schedule your showing today! All dimensions estimated Buyer/Buyer’s agent to verify.
