5367 Crooked Oak CircleSt Cloud, FL 34771Price: $749,000

Tucked along the quiet edge of the East Toho chain, this stunning 4-bedroom, 3-bath waterfront retreat sits on over half an acre of lush, oak-canopied land with a private dock, canal access, and a multi-lake boating life waiting right outside your back door. At 2,804 square feet, there's room here to breathe, to gather, and to finally exhale. Step inside and you'll feel it immediately - the vaulted great room draws you in with soaring ceilings and a gorgeous fireplace that anchors the space with warmth and character. The kitchen is the heart of this home in every sense: quartz surfaces, updated cabinetry, and a chef-worthy 60/40 oven and cooktop that makes cooking feel like a pleasure, not a chore. Every appliance conveys - move in and start living. The split floor plan gives everyone their own corner of peace, and the fourth bedroom is something special - privately positioned with its own bath, multiple entrances, and French doors that open directly to the backyard. Whether it becomes a mother-in-law suite, a guest retreat, or a quiet home office, the flexibility is entirely yours. And then there's the enclosed patio - a true bonus living space with sliding doors, so you can fling them open to the breeze or close them in and enjoy the view year-round. It flows seamlessly from the main living area and sets the tone for everything just beyond: the screened pool, the private dock, private sun deck and the water views. Every Sunday gathering, every lazy afternoon, every golden Florida evening has a home here. The canal connects you to Lake Ajay, Fells Cove, Lake Runnymede, Boggy Creek, and East Lake Toho - all just a short boat ride away. The community boat ramp at the end of the canal makes it effortless. Canal-fed irrigation keeps the lawn green without the water bill. Paver driveway. Oversized 3-car garage. Walk-in closets. Enormous attic. And yes - all of this with a septic system, low HOA, and the kind of lower-tax, laid-back living that feels increasingly rare. You're practically in the heart of Lake Nona - but you're in the country. One mile from Publix. Three from Walmart and Sam's. Four from the 417. Multiple Access points to get anywhere without hassle. The magnificent grandfather oaks have been here for generations. Now it's your turn. Available furnished - just ask for details.
