Welcome to your own private retreat—where comfort, style, and country living come together on 5 fully fenced acres in one of the area’s most sought-after locations. This stunning 4-bedroom, 3-bath pool home offers the perfect balance of peaceful seclusion and everyday convenience. Start your mornings on the inviting front porch, the ideal spot to sip coffee and soak in the serene surroundings. Inside, the thoughtfully designed layout features two spacious living areas—including a cozy fireplace—along with a formal dining room that’s perfect for hosting gatherings. The kitchen is both functional and beautiful, with a charming eat-in area and a sink perfectly positioned to overlook the picturesque backyard. Throughout the home, you’ll find high-end finishes including custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, luxury vinyl plank flooring (no carpet!), and stylish touches like wood shiplap, crown molding, and built-ins that provide both character and ample storage. The spacious primary suite is filled with natural light and offers two walk-in closets along with a well-appointed bathroom featuring dual vanities. Step outside through either of the two sliding glass doors and discover your own backyard oasis—complete with a fenced saltwater pool featuring two tranquil fountains, an expansive paver patio, and an additional deck ideal for entertaining, grilling, or simply unwinding.

The 12x28 powered outbuilding—with A/C and water—offers incredible versatility as a home gym, office, workshop, or guest overflow space, plus a lean-to for storing equipment or recreational toys. The two-car garage is equally impressive with added cabinetry for optimal organization. Recent upgrades—including a Tesla charger, new pool pump, resurfaced pool, spray foam insulation, gutters, and more—provide peace of mind and added value. With no HOA and plenty of room for animals, this property offers true freedom and flexibility. Ideally located just minutes from I-75 with easy access to High Springs, Alachua, Gainesville, and Lake City, and close to the Santa Fe River and renowned natural springs.
