Welcome to your own private slice of Old Florida paradise. Nestled on 4.49 lakefront acres in Golden Acres, this unique property offers a rare blend of privacy, functionality, and natural beauty. Surrounded by mature trees, tropical landscaping, winding garden paths, and peaceful natural surroundings, the setting feels worlds away while still being conveniently located near everyday amenities. The property extends to the lake, though the current mature vegetation and natural overgrowth along the shoreline limit direct lake views from the home, offering an opportunity for the next owner to explore opening up the view to better showcase the waterfront setting. Inside, the thoughtfully designed split-bedroom floor plan offers 1,779 square feet of living space centered around a spacious living and dining area with a wood-burning fireplace. Skylights fill the home with natural light, while large windows and sliding doors create a seamless connection to the outdoors. The generous primary suite overlooks the backyard retreat, and the flexible floor plan provides comfortable everyday living with plenty of room to personalize. One of the home's standout features is the finished attached garage, which has been converted into additional usable space. Whether you're looking for a home office, hobby room, workshop, fitness area, game room, or potential additional bedroom, this bonus area offers endless possibilities to fit your lifestyle. Step outside and discover what makes this property truly special. The expansive screened pool and patio area serves as the heart of the outdoor living space, perfect for entertaining guests or simply relaxing while enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The adjoining Florida room extends the living space even further and provides beautiful views of the property. For those needing room for projects, equipment, vehicles, or hobbies, you'll love the impressive 36x30 detached workshop. Combined with additional storage buildings, greenhouse, and nearly 2.5 acres of usable land, this property offers opportunities rarely found in today's market.
