Under contract-accepting backup offers. Florida living without the HOA, and you are right on the edge of the Ocala National Forest. This updated 2-bedroom, 1-bath home sits on a quiet, well-maintained road on .57 acre, partially fenced and ready for dogs, gardens, or parking the boat and ATV. Inside has been refreshed top to bottom. The kitchen is updated with stainless appliances, solid counters, and real space to cook after a day on the water. Laundry is easy with a new washer and dryer, conveniently located in the bathroom. Big-ticket peace of mind: metal roof installed approx. 4 years ago. The favorite spot is the spacious enclosed porch deck. Bright, bug-free, perfect for coffee, puzzles, entertaining guests, or watching a storm roll through the pines. Outside, you get a detached 14'x 20' garage/workshop complete with power, great for projects and storage, or turn it into an in-law suite! Minutes to various springs, public boat ramps, and hiking/riding trails through the forest!
