Welcome to your own private retreat in the heart of Golden Gate Estates! This meticulously maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on over an acre of fully cleared, fenced, and gated land—ideal for a young family, hobbyist, or empty nesters seeking a peaceful slice of paradise. There’s plenty of room for horses, and to add a large pool to complete the perfect setting for Florida outdoor living. Enjoy balmy nights al fresco on the Amazing extended lanai w/outdoor kitchen & TV area. Long circular driveway w/separate parking pad for guests! Inside, the home features brand-new luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout (with a lifetime warranty) and fresh paint inside and out, creating a light and airy atmosphere. The thoughtfully appointed kitchen is perfect for entertaining, with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a wraparound island.

A standout feature is the detached 30x30 non-conforming garage, which has been thoughtfully upgraded with electric and plumbing. This versatile space currently serves as a spacious art studio, hobby room, and office, and could easily function as private guest quarters with its own separate entrance. Plans are available to convert it fully into a guest house. There’s also a separate tool shed or “she shed” for extra storage or creative space. The home also includes a newer roof (2018), a tankless water heater, and a one-year home warranty to be provided at closing. Located in a desirable area with excellent schools nearby, this property is just minutes from I-75, convenient shopping, and the exciting new Big Cypress Regional Park.
