A beautiful 5-acre paradise... in a desirable location tucked away off of Henscratch Road, convenient to both Lake Placid and Sebring. Looks like a great family retreat in a park like setting with mature trees. The one owner, unique home has 2 bedrooms however the 19x17 bonus room is currently being used as a bedroom, and it does have 2 closets... or you could use that bonus room as a game room or theater room. The kitchen is open with solid surface counter tops and great for entertaining... the entire living/ dining area has that open GREAT ROOM effect. Picture yourself having your morning coffee on the 10'x20' front porch getting ready to get your day started... will you be working in your 50' air-conditioned garage/ workshop or tending to your livestock? There is a barn with two horse stalls that does need some TLC. Maybe you just want to enjoy your beautiful yard, as much of it has a sprinkler system and beautiful sod with chain link fencing. Your privacy is assured with lush perimeter landscaping. The A/C appears to be 2016. 3 Wells with pumps are on the property: fencing in the back may provide a pasture area for animals. This property must be seen in person to fully appreciate how beautiful the setting is.
