Welcome to your private off-grid paradise! Nestled on a serene 5-acre lot—of which 3 acres are cleared and thoughtfully developed—this spacious country home blends rustic charm with modern sustainability. The main house features large windows that flood the space with natural light, a wood-burning fireplace with stone hearth, a spacious kitchen with a porcelain farmhouse sink, partially renovated with a convection oven, and ceiling fans throughout for year-round comfort. The oversized primary suite boasts a custom walk-in closet and bay window overlooking the barn, lush backyard, and pond. A wrought iron spiral staircase leads to a private loft and additional bedroom. Barn doors and a Nest thermostat add stylish, smart touches. The property includes screened-in pool deck, a pole barn/open garage topped with a solar power grid, and a charming barn with paddock doors and a partially finished office/apartment upstairs—already prepped for plumbing. There's also a hen house ready for your backyard flock! Enjoy expansive sky views from both the house and barn, with unforgettable sunrises and sunsets. The home is powered by FPL 2 SMA Sunny Boy Grid-Tie Solar Inverters and a deep well with a brand name water system, keeping you off-grid and self-sufficient. Other features include a large laundry/mud room, private gated entrance with solar-powered remote and siren, shell-paved driveway, and a welcoming front porch. Located just one house from the cul-de-sac, in a sought-after neighborhood with excellent nearby schools in Lakewood Ranch or Arcadia. This is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. Come experience peace, privacy, and the beauty of nature without sacrificing comfort or convenience.
