About this home
Nature lover’s paradise! Tucked away from the road in private seclusion on over 9 acres of sweeping lawn, stately oaks and canal frontage to the Chain of Lakes. Bring all of your toys and the horses – this is country! No HOA! The moment you set foot on this one-of-a-kind property you feel a sense of tranquility and true American freedom. This custom-built home is comfortable yet elegant and will impress with its brick construction, rocking chair front porch, distressed hickory wood flooring, vaulted ceilings and natural woodwork throughout. The open and free flowing floor plan features a large great room with wood burning fireplace, separate office and center island baker’s kitchen with double convection ovens. The large recreation room with full bath would make an excellent second master suite and features a craftsman pub bar with wine cooler and icemaker. Perfect for grand scale entertaining with large covered lanai, summer kitchen and screen enclosed inground pool. You will love the backyard setting with no neighbors and plenty of room for expansion.
