Standing on nearly eight acres in the heart of northwest Marion County's Farm Preservation Area, this three bedroom and two bathroom concrete block home has been meticulously maintained and is ready for you to write it's next chapter. A paved country road wanders by charming farms and ancient oaks bringing you to your peaceful retreat from the world. Wild turkey and deer often greet you as the deeded access drive brings you through a stand of hardwoods. If an equestrian mini-farm is your dream, there's plenty of opportunity to clear between the live oaks and created shaded pasture. The freshly painted home sits at the center of the property in a gently shaded clearing surrounded by stunning azaleas and other mature landscaping. As you enter the light and bright living room, you'll notice updated solid flooring that extends into the dining room, kitchen, and den. The split floor plan features two spacious bedrooms and a bathroom on one side of the house, and a large primary suite on the other - all with brand new carpet and oversized closets. Both bathrooms have been beautifully renovated. French doors in the dining room open to a screen lanai overlooking the back yard, a perfect place to enjoy central Florida's weather all year. A carport and pole barn provide plenty of storage for cars and equipment. Williston is a friendly community known as the Gateway to the Nature Coast and is surrounded by many outdoor recreational opportunities within a short drive including the Gulf at Cedar Key, Devil's Den, Blue Grotto, Goethe State Forest, Rainbow Springs and the Suwannee River. The World Equestrian Center in the heart of Florida's Horse Capital is only twenty miles to the south, and the shopping, dining and hospitals of Gainesville and the University of Florida are twenty miles to the north.
