The large 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath concrete block home features an expansive living room with majestic brick fireplace and sliding doors that open to the in-ground pool and patio. What a perfect, private place to entertain and relax! Imagine the wonderful family gatherings you can host here. The roomy master suite includes double closets, walk-in shower and vanity. You can work from home in the separate office and still have three extra bedrooms for family and guests. A half bath is conveniently located off the extra-large three-car garage with workshop and laundry room. The citrus grove has a large well and the home has its own smaller well. The property consists of 58 acres and home, sitting south of Metheny Road. Of the 58 acres, approximately 40 acres is fenced pastureland that a neighbor uses for his cattle, and he may be willing to continue using the property under a new owner, which would offer a significant tax benefit. There is an existing fruit contract with a local company and a citrus crop was picked for the 2021-2022 season, although the income was nominal. A new roof was just completed in February 2023 and the well pump for the home is also new. Wauchula is a quaint, small town located in central Florida, within an easy drive to Orlando, Tampa, Lakeland and Sarasota. You can enjoy the serenity of country living and still be within 1-1.5 hours from these larger cities.
