Original owners offer this beautiful property close enough to downtown but a million miles away from urban development in the environmentally protected Green Swamp area of a birder’s paradise. Natural beauty awaits you in this secluded, waterfront retreat offering 10.5 acres and the perfect floor plan for a multi-generational family. The property offers plenty of space for additional structures like an in-law house, horse barn, or other secondary structures. With 2 docks, you’ll view sunrise over Lake Gary, a private lake perfect for the avid water-skier, and sunset over the pond. Shaded with pine, palm, oak, and cypress trees the private drive leads you to a screened, wrap-around porch overlooking wooded land, lake frontage, and fruit orchards. Entering the foyer your eye is drawn through the home out to the lake. The large gourmet kitchen offers granite counter tops, 42″ cabinetry, appliance garages, a walk-in pantry, an island, plenty of storage and the solar hot water heater makes clean up easy. Warm up in the living room with the wood burning fireplace and feel the togetherness that comes from the open floor plan. The first floor master suite offers french doors onto the pool deck and a walk-in tub in the bathroom — perfect as an in-law suite. The first floor layout makes this home perfect for a multi-generational family or a home to age in place. The large laundry room downstairs is outfitted with cabinetry for storage, a laundry sink, and an outside entrance beside the outdoor shower. Upstairs the landing is a perfect place to get away for lake views and is the entryway to 2 additional master bedrooms. The large master suite offers a balcony on each side of the bedroom, a gorgeous wooden ceiling, a built-in closet system, and the bathroom offers jetted tub, a stand up shower, a water closet complete with a bidet. The second master bedroom on the second floor offers a walk in closet, a window day-bed with cedar-lined interior for storage, and it’s own en-suite bath. Plantation shutters adorn the windows peering out over the property revealing a pole barn that stores equipment, walking trails have been cut through the woods, fruit trees are bearing fruit, and fish jump in the lake. Go up one more flight of stairs to the crow’s nest on top of the home for views of the treetops, a long distance view across the lake, and the perfect place to view the stars at night. Heading out of the home there is a large storage room between the laundry room and large 2-car garage. Enjoy fresh produce from your own fruit tree orchard with citrus and other edibles!
