Situated on a manageable one-acre parcel with NO HOA or CDD fees, this property delivers the charm and tranquility of rural living without the extensive maintenance associated with larger acreage. Built in 2015 by its original owners, this thoughtfully designed, concrete block home offers 2,144 square feet of living space, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a versatile additional office or bonus room. Quality construction and pride of ownership are evident throughout, from the durable metal roof and Hardie Plank siding, recently recaulked and repainted, to the energy-conscious ISO thermal insulation. Step inside to discover a spacious, open-concept floor plan designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining. The upgraded kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas, creating an inviting central gathering space. A beautiful Vermont Castings Encore wood-burning stove adds warmth, character, and a touch of rustic elegance to the main living area. The generously sized primary suite features a private bathroom complete with dual vanities and a large walk-in shower. Additional bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations, while the separate office or bonus room offers flexibility for working from home, hobbies, or additional living space. Enjoy Florida's beautiful weather from the screened-in rear porch, overlooking your own slice of the countryside. The property also features a spacious two-car garage, two detached outbuildings—including a dedicated workshop and a separate well shed—and a six-zone irrigation system to help maintain the grounds. Additional upgrades include Shark Coatings flooring on the front porch, rear porch, and garage, a private well equipped with a whole-home reverse osmosis water treatment system, and an onsite septic system.
