Searching for peace and quiet in a small central Florida town? This beautifully maintained brick pool home comes with 5 acres and is located between Melrose & Keystone Heights. It's small town living with the convenience of local grocery stores, restaurants, and shopping within a 5-mile radius. In addition, you're only 30 mins to Gainesville, 50 mins to Ocala and approximately an hour to St. Augustine beach! There's plenty of privacy on this beautiful 5-acre property with the back 4 acres completely fenced and covered in pecan trees (including an agricultural tax exemption). Located on an asphalt road with cul de sac with only 10 other homes! As you enter the home, enjoy a complete interior renovation with neutral shades and plenty of natural light through plantation shutters. A spacious great room greets you with high ceilings, gas fireplace, and French doors leading to an expansive 36' x 14' under-roof lanai and additional 45' x 28' screen-enclosure with inground pool. Perfect for indoor/outdoor entertaining! The adjacent kitchen also has high ceilings, the same beautiful hardwood flooring, with sunny dining area as well as countertop seating along a large island. Completely remodeled, the kitchen includes premium, soft close cabinetry with quartz countertops and stainless-steel appliances with gas range and a refrigerator that includes an in-door Keurig coffee maker. Enjoy your morning coffee on the front porch and watch the sun rise, then enjoy beautiful sunsets in the evening from the lanai overlooking the pool and the back 4 acres. The split floor plan has two bedrooms and a bath on one side of the home, and the owner's and fourth bedroom/office on the other side. There's also a front room that can be used as a formal dining or living room. The owner's bedroom has an ensuite and bath with double sink vanity, walk in closet and separate door leading to the lanai and pool. Both bathrooms feature the same custom cabinetry and quartz countertops as found in the kitchen. The complete remodel includes a new roof and new HVAC within the last 4 years. You'll love the large, attached garage for your vehicles. If you like to "tinker" or own several "toys", the 36' x 36' workshop has the additional space you need. The workshop features (2) 12' tall remote-controlled garage doors - one on each end - with concrete floor and entrance slabs for easy pull-through and storage for an RV or boat. Another two sets of doors open for easy access to Seadoos, kayaks, or other toys. Whether your family and guests like to gather in the kitchen, family room, poolside, around the grill, or even around a bonfire, this property is for you!
