Beautiful COUNTRY HOME! "Miles from everything. Minutes to anything". Looking for 2+ acres of country-living just a few minutes out of town? Nestled just between Lake Mary and Mt. Dora at the protected Rock Springs State Park, bring your horses and ride the 17 miles of natural trails, or hike to the Wekiva River without ever crossing a street. This beautiful brick rancher is only steps away from the connected Seminole-Wekiva trail, connecting directly to miles and miles of paved bike paths. If the 14,000 acres of protected State Park out your back yard isn't enough, you are minutes from the entrance to another 27,000 acres of the Seminole State Forest on the north side of this property. "They aren't making them like that anymore" is true in this case because this beautiful piece of country living will never have more homes built around it due to the Wekiva Basin protections. Bring your RV, boat, or auto collections home to this spacious beautiful property. Feel the stress of city life melt away when you turn off the half-mile long "cul-de-sac on both ends" street and enter the 300 ft. paved driveway winding through the trees in front of the property. You are taken away to a slower pace. Two sets of French Doors open onto the large screened room at back of house, where you can enjoy morning coffee watching butterflies dance in the native butterly gardens. Stroll through the peach-tree lined alley to the beautifully designed raised-bed kitchen gardens. Nineteen fully irrigated gardens create a stunning homestead with attention to visual detail as well as low maintenance function for growing plenty of food for your family. Enjoy slow mornings gathering eggs from the chicken coop after a night of stargazing in this low-light-pollution zone of Central Florida. Only a couple minutes from an entrance to Wekiva Parkway (429), this is the most well connected form of country living possible, making a visit to Disney, Universal or Orlando International Airport a breeze instead of a "chore on I-4"!! This lovely home is the perfect place from which to enjoy the beauty, lakes and gentle hills of Lake County, while also being just 12 minutes from shops, restaurants and amenities in Seminole County. Almost heaven!
