Discover a truly extraordinary property with this custom-built log cabin, a rare gem in the heart of Florida. Set on nearly six acres of peaceful countryside, this home offers the perfect combination of privacy, tranquility, and modern conveniences, all while being just minutes from town. You are greeted by a covered front porch providing a cozy space to unwind and take in the surrounding nature. Inside, the open floor plan showcases soaring cathedral ceilings, creating a bright and spacious living area. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is thoughtfully designed, featuring a primary suite with a private ensuite bathroom and two additional bedrooms that share a convenient Jack and Jill bath. Finished loft adds additional usable interior space; could be a kids play area, storage, or office! The kitchen is a chef's delight with stainless steel appliances, ample workspace, and easy flow to the dining area, where double French doors lead to the screened-in lanai. A laundry room with built-in cabinets and counter space adds practicality to the home. Outdoors, the heated pool, complete with a new salt cell generator, is the centerpiece of the expansive lanai, offering an ideal spot for relaxation and entertaining. Beyond the pool, the property features a stocked pond with a dock, perfect for fishing or simply enjoying the serene water views, all while two sheds provide extra storage or workspace. Modern upgrades and amenities include a whole-house reverse osmosis system, a grinder pump septic system, and a new pressure tank for the well. The home is built to last with hurricane impact windows and a durable metal roof. This is not a kit home but a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, crafted with care and distinction. Offering abundant wildlife, scenic views, and unmatched tranquility, this property is the ultimate retreat. Schedule a private showing today to experience the unique beauty of this custom log cabin.
