2 homes on 1 property! Link to video below! Located in the rural community of Hidden River, this multi-generational property is accessed via a private quarter-mile driveway that winds past the three ponds and a canopy of tall trees. At the end of the road, the property opens to two separate homes designed for both privacy and shared use. To the right, the main home includes five bedrooms and three bathrooms, along with a screened-in pool currently doubling as a habitat for local frogs. An oversized garage provides ample room for vehicles, tools, or storage. The primary bedroom is on the main level, along with a flexible bonus room currently used as an office. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms. The home is designed for functional daily living with natural light throughout. A portion of the lanai has been enclosed to create a large indoor walk-in pantry adjacent to the kitchen. Ahead sits the second home, with three bedrooms and two full bathrooms which is ideal for extended family and friends, or could provide rental income. A fully fenced pasture area has previously housed livestock and could be used again for animals or agricultural use and located next to the pump house. Recent improvements include a new roof on the main house in 2024, and a new well, drain field, and septic system in 2022. The water system includes a deep well with filtration. A leased propane tank supports additional energy needs. Both homes have their own generator. The 6.9-acre parcel includes two single family homes. There are wetlands located around the perimeter of the property. Hidden River is a unique community with no HOA and an optional airport club for those interested in aviation. Across the road, the Myakka River offers a quiet place to sit or picnic at the shaded community area. Owned and maintained by the same family for nearly 30 years, this property offers a rare combination of space, flexibility, and long-term potential. https://vimeo.com/1091463454
