The next owner of this home will appreciate a retreat to nature, people who enjoy having a 1/4 mile driveway through forest to a house at the edge of an aquifer-fed pond, a first-class swimming hole, ringed with live oak trees and with a beautiful view across open marsh through which the rising water flows to join the nearby Santa Fe River. This 9.6 acre parcel adjoins a 1,600 acre state preserve with miles of hiking trails. Enjoy quick access to area springs & state parks on area rivers. Features include a full-length extra-wide covered back porch overlooking the pond, a wood-burning stove in the living area, and a gourmet chef''s kitchen with a 5-burner gas range and a commercial grade extra-large refrigerator-freezer. The master bath has a walk-in shower with dual heads. Construction is 2x6 walls making the home extra energy efficient ($100/mo/avg electric bill). Near the entry gate from the private access lane is a pole barn with power. Zoned AG. Used as a second home (tax amnt not homestead). The detached garage is big enough for 2 cars and plenty of work space.
