Set near the famous Rainbow Springs, this 2022 built home offers a peaceful residential setting on 1.16 acres with the privacy of larger lots and convenient access to one of Central Florida's most recognized natural attractions. Located in an R-1 residential area of approximately one-acre homesites, the property combines newer construction, thoughtful upgrades, and exceptional outdoor and storage space. Inside, the home features three bedrooms plus a versatile flex room that easily adapts for work, hobbies, or guest use. The kitchen has just been refreshed with new stone countertops, a gorgeous new backsplash, and under-cabinet lighting that adds both function and ambiance while complementing the espresso shaker cabinetry. Both bathrooms have also been upgraded with new stone countertops, sinks, and lavatory faucets. Newly updated light fixtures in select areas add another fresh finishing touch. The garage features a True Grit durable epoxy finish, a newer opener with camera and motion-sensing technology, and an automated screen door with remote for added ventilation and flexibility. The home has also been prepped for a propane generator. Outdoor spaces have received their own fresh updates. The front porch now features a warm wood-accent ceiling, updated lighting, and an included porch swing that creates the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the peaceful setting. Landscaping has been refreshed throughout the property, and updated exterior pool lighting makes the backyard even more inviting for Florida evenings. A heated pool with color changing LED lighting, sundeck, and built in hot tub creates a resort style setting, all enclosed within a large screened pool area. A dedicated grilling space with paver flooring and overhead shade provides an ideal spot for outdoor dining and entertaining. A 500-gallon propane tank services the property, while selective tree removal has opened up ample driveway and parking space. A standout feature is the recently constructed 30x50 detached metal workshop with an oversized RV bay. Designed with flexibility in mind, it includes multiple roll up and walk in doors along with a lean-to, providing exceptional space for vehicles, trailers, equipment, recreational storage, or hobbies. The sellers have continued improving the property, and a change in plans now creates an opportunity for the next owner to enjoy a nearly new home with many of the upgrades already completed. Mature landscaping, fruit trees, and established plantings frame the property and add to its private, peaceful atmosphere. With its blend of newer construction, refreshed interiors, resort style outdoor living, and versatile outbuildings, this property offers a unique opportunity near the crystal clear waters, recreation, and natural beauty of Rainbow Springs. Furniture may also be available through a separate purchase. Matterport virtual tour and recorded video tour available upon request.
