What's special
Virtually Staged. Redwater Lake Home. This 1,750 sq ft home sits on 2.26 acres with roughly 150 ft of lake frontage, a private dock, and a boat lift. The home has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The front door opens into a foyer that leads to a comfortable living area with a wood-burning fireplace and a great view of the lake. A wall of sliders opens onto a screened porch, which flows out to an open deck, a good spot for company or for sitting quietly with your coffee. The kitchen has plenty of counter space, wood cabinets and a breakfast bar. There's custom cypress tongue-and-groove ceilings and a cypress staircase that add character. Two bedrooms near the front share a hall bathroom with a tub/shower combo. The utility room connects to the two-car garage. Upstairs, a sitting area leads to the primary bedroom, which has its own small deck for watching the sunset, plus a large walk-in closet. The primary bathroom has a walk-in shower. A few other things worth mentioning: a newly built, heated, irrigated greenhouse for anyone who likes to garden. A new roof and exterior paint. Home has two HVAC units; a built-in central vacuum system and an oversized garage with a workbench and utility sink. The grounds have mature trees, a small butterfly garden, some flowering plants and fruit trees and native Florida foliage. Redwater Lake is spring-fed and covers about 233 acres, good for boating, skiing, kayaking, canoeing and fishing. It's a peaceful setting. About 25 minutes to Gainesville and 45 to Ocala.
