Country living only 15 minutes from Brandon! With over 21 acres, a shared pond, a 3,341 sq ft home and a workshop, it's a little slice of heaven. There is so much space in this home including an enormous kitchen, formal dining and living rooms, a sunroom across the back and an additional room that would serve nicely as a guest room or office. A generous primary suite boasts French doors to the sunroom and a bath with double sinks and a jetted tub. The two large upstairs bedrooms share a hall bath. The patio out back overlooks the woods behind and if that wasn't enough, there is also a workshop with a carport. The 21 acres include woods, a cleared area for gardening and access to a shared pond. Although not quite complete, the updating of this home is under way, with new floors throughout, new appliances, new lighting fixtures, fresh paint, updated bathrooms and a new HVAC system and new hot water heater. The new homeowners can still put their own touch to the remaining updates and this one is priced to do so!
