Nature-lovers 5-acre piece of paradise, with an immaculate 3,200 square-foot solar home including 5 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. All the benefits of country living yet only 5 minutes from the 300-acre Celery Fields Preserve, part of the Great Florida Birding Trail, 7 minutes from Fruitville Library, 10 minutes to a grocery store, and 30 minutes to Siesta Key Beach, rated one of the best beaches in the country. The front yard features a native-plant garden with a mahogany tree. The garden attracts a myriad of butterflies and birds, and no grass to mow there! The backyard orchard includes two types of mangos, lychees, strawberry guava, mulberry, pomegranate, persimmon, avocados and kumquat, and numerous sweet-bearing pineapple plants. Grow veggies in the fall and winter in a custom-built, covered structure for 13 Earthboxes at waist height. Discover two of the threatened species on the property while walking the groomed nature trails throughout the property: Gopher Tortoises and the pine-loving Sherman Fox Squirrels. Florida Sandhill Cranes are regular visitors with their young. On the main floor of this welcoming home is the great room, dining room and TV room all of which have hardwood floors, also the kitchen, bathrooms, and laundry with tiled floors. Also on the main floor is the carpeted master suite. The updated kitchen has beautiful, blue-veined granite, with custom cabinets and a new induction stove, new microwave, and new dishwasher. Upstairs the hallway has hardwood flooring, the four bedrooms are carpeted, and the bath is tiled. A fenced yard with a dog door off the back porch keeps your best friend safe. Solar panels, septic system and well water limit utility bills to under $10/month. Two ultra energy-efficient Lennox air conditioners were installed in 2018. The screws on the metal roof were caulked and reseated when the solar panels were installed. Charge your electric car for free (using the solar panels!) with the plug in the garage. Also included is a portable generator. The schools serving this area are Tatum Ridge Elementary, which is less than a mile away, McIntosh Middle School and Booker High School.
