In two out buildings the property includes an art studio and workshop, The grounds feature huge long-leaf yellow pine trees, water on three sides, two wells and an open second lot with full RV hookup also available.
This 1800 sq. foot 2-bedroom Interlachen lake house offers a full modern kitchen with bar, 4 leather stools, and one of three dining areas in the house. One and a half bathrooms equipped with a bathtub and shower are beautifully appointed, The master bedroom is exquisite with board and batten paneling and a wrought iron framed picture window over the bed. The second double bed is a Murphy bed in the living room. Outside is a second kitchen on the "Fish Porch" complete with Masterbuilt grill, Akorn cooker, sink and refrigerator.
A stunning view from the porch looks over the fire pit, under the pines, through the hammocks, past the crescent dock with fish station and over the turtle float to the lake's far shore. The sun rises over that east shore with early morning light streaming into the living room, the setting sun lights up the shore on its descent. Lounge on the porch or take the paddleboat or canoe out for a cocktail cruise or to catch dinner. Stay out and float in the dark night sky under a blaze of stars.
In addition to the property's 3 acres of abundant wildlife: birds, cranes. ducks, geese, butterflies, deer, otter, turkey, turtles fed by the owners (please no pets), natural wonders in the area abound. Don't miss the nearby State Parks with wild horses, alligators and bison.
Woodland trails to hike; 'Rails to Trails' to bike. The State Parks host numerous crystal-clear 1st magnitude fresh water springs to swim and snorkel. These Springs of North Florida have been attracting and entrancing tourists since the advent of the motorcar. From springs and rivers to canoe/kayak with fish, birds, alligators, manatees and wild monkeys... come see Disney before Disney!
Fishing is good year-round but fishing for trophy Largemouth Bass is a Spring ritual here in North Florida. Fishermen join us from around the country. See the picture!
