250 Old SR 8 Rd, Venus, FL 33960

HOME ON THE RANGE!!! Have you been dreaming about living in the country with lots of room for your cows, horses, goats, or a nursery? This 20-acre ranch offers all sorts of possibilities. Located in Venus, just south of Lake Placid in Highlands County, this property is the perfect spot to live. When you enter the fully fenced parcel, the front half is cattle pasture. As you travel up the gravel road toward the homesite, you'll notice an area set up for practicing barrel racing. Plus, there's a barn next to it. The barn has an automatic feeding system for the horses. Getting closer to the main house, there's a nice size pond, full of fish. The 1711 sq ft home has a brand-new aluminum roof with rain gutters, and was recently painted. Inside is a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with cathedral ceiling, vinyl plank flooring, and a very nice kitchen with granite countertops. The appliances are new too. The stove, hot water heater, and dryer run on gas. When you taste the water, you will be amazed how good it is. (Superior/Platinum water system) Out back there's a very large, screened porch. You will enjoy beautiful sunsets out front. All the windows have hurricane shutters. And there's a generator outlet. A surprise awaits you when you realize that there's another living quarters on the property too. It's a two story "Cracker-style" home with a covered front porch. Inside there's a large living room, kitchen, and full bath and an instant hot water heater. On the second level you'll find plenty of sleeping room. (This building still needs insulation and finished floors. ) You'll also appreciate the covered pole-barn for your equipment. Plus, there's a separate air-conditioned building for your workshop. The rear acreage is wooded and has about a half-acre of wet land full of wading birds. You might spot a wild hog or two or other game. There's an RV hook up too. Driving around the whole property with your 'side by side' is fun too. It's like owning the perfect 'gentleman's ranch'.
