You'll find this hidden gem on 11.4 acres just half a mile from the North Entrance of Ichetucknee Springs State Park, nestled back behind a beautiful gated entrance, up a tree-lined and -covered driveway, in a clearing that feels worlds away from anyone but nature. There sits the beautifully appointed three bedroom and two bathroom home, lovingly maintained and thoughtfully remodeled. Its covered patio provides space to relax or entertain while enjoying the surroundings; listen to nature or your favorite artists on the built-in speakers (which also flow through the house, with individual controls in respective rooms). Head in through the den, spacious and beautiful with its pine accents, and then to the kitchen, replete with gorgeous wood cabinets, granite counters, pantry cabinets, and space for island seating. The dining space is close by, as is the formal living area, easily accessible from the ornate front door and foyer. The second and third bedrooms are generous, with large closets (and California Closet-style shelving systems featured in all closets in the home). However, it's the main suite that truly shines. Ample space for larger furniture, multiple closets, hardwood floors, and an elegant en suite bath-with walk in shower and separate garden tub-are just a few of the highlights. It even offers its own patio and entrance, complete with outdoor shower, to wash away the day after working or playing outside. A whole home generator is also on standby, should it ever be needed. Outdoors, there are trails through the beautiful woods, one of which leads you to a karst, spectacular in its own right-a hunter's paradise as a haven for wildlife. Also on the main parcel sits the detached garage, with multiple enclosed bays for cars or equipment, attic storage, and multiple open carport bays. An additional shed offers storage space for lawn or other implements. The second parcel holds a mobile home that, while currently used for storage, could easily be brought back to life, as well as an RV carport. Updated and upgraded, and ideally situated, this property is indeed as special as it sounds. Call today to schedule your tour!
