25608 Devonia St., Melrose, FL 32666

This uniquely designed home is a rare opportunity for you to live your Lake Life dream! Homes on the shores of Melrose Bay, Lake Santa Fe, seldom become available - and this home is Unique. Light and airy, the design embraces the views of the Bay from each of the living areas. The great room, kitchen, and dining room flow beautifully together and are perfect for relaxing in an intimate setting or for providing an inviting escape for your friends and family. The kitchen opens to the great room, highlighted by stone countertops and brushed chrome appliances. The open shelving surrounds the windows to draw in the natural light; start your day with the sunrise streaming through easterly windows from the breakfast bar! Entertain your guests in the spacious dining room for casual or formal dining, or step outside to the deck or screened lanai for more built-in seating overlooking the water. There are two owner retreats; one upstairs and one on the first floor; each enjoying its own view of the Bay and spacious enough for king-sized beds and more! Renowned architect Ron Haase designed this custom, Old-Florida style home for use as his family lake home with wide overhangs and an open floor plan to take advantage of the lake breezes. Cedar trim, hardwood floors, metal accent siding, cedar-lined closets, and Pella windows throughout the home are just some of the many features offered by this special retreat! Melrose Bay is a no-wake zone connecting to Lake Santa Fe and located in the heart of historic Melrose. Walk or bike around this quaint community and enjoy the charm of the community. Lake Santa Fe is reknowned for its water stability and quality, its bass fishing; recreational paddle boarding, kayaking, and swimming. The location is convenient! Approximately 30 minutes to Gainesville, 20 minutes to the Gainesville Regional Airport, and 90 minutes to Jacksonville.
