Positioned just 9 miles east of I-75, the residence rests within Oak Ford, an intimate community of roughly 80 custom homes, each set on 5-acre parcels woven into more than 400 acres of protected nature preserve. Life here unfolds in harmony with the landscape, framed by wildlife sanctuaries, shimmering lakes, and quiet, tree-canopied streets. A gated country driveway sets the tone as you make your way down to this timeless plantation-style home. The full wraparound porch embraces the residence, granting peaceful views and easy outdoor access from nearly every room. Inside, the great room welcomes you with vaulted ceilings and an expansive open living area designed for gathering. A staircase leads to an upstairs bonus room, ideal as a home office, billiards room, or cozy retreat. The beautifully remodeled kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring a center island with seating, abundant cabinetry, and newer stainless appliances including double wall ovens, dishwasher, and a windowed refrigerator. The dining area overlooks the backyard and pool, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. Adjacent, the den/family room offers a warm backdrop for daily living with its wood-burning fireplace and sliders that open to the porch. The thoughtful split-floor plan places the primary suite on one side of the home for ultimate privacy. Bright and airy, the suite features French doors to the porch, two separate walk-in closets, and a newly renovated primary bathroom. Two guest bedrooms sit on the opposite side, tucked behind a pocket door for quiet separation. For added peace of mind, there is a new generator w/5 yr warranty fueled by a 250 gal propane tank, impact windows upstairs and hurricane shutters for downstairs, new AC w/10 yr warranty, metal roof 2011, kitchen remodel and appliances 2020, beautiful new luxury vinyl flooring throughout and a recent pump out and inspection of the septic system. The 3-car garage has been freshly finished and doubles as the perfect workshop or hobby space with its light-filled bays. Outdoors, the property invites endless relaxation and recreation with a sparkling pool, expansive deck space, and multiple areas for dining, lounging, and play. A charming cabana with a full bath offers an ideal guest hideaway or potential 4th bedroom.
