This well maintained 3 bedroom, 2 bath home offers bonus room and huge lanai, tile throughout and ceiling fans in every room (2 on the lanai). Recently updated kitchen has granite counters, glass top range, and energy efficient refrigerator. Love natural Florida? Come look. The view from the kitchen window gives a sense of looking into a remote natural world, though you are only a few quick minutes from shopping and medical facilities, less than 2 miles from a salt water launch for kayak or motorboat. This home of an energy conscious naturalist features blown-in attic insulation, Energy Star windows, Solatubes for natural light, and tree plantings that help with natural cooling. On a large corner lot, the yard features Florida native trees including mahoganies, gumbo limbo, and wild tamarind. You will love bird and butterfly watching in this National Wildlife Association Certified Backyard Habitat. Store bird seed in the custom built 10' x 10' shed, and keep an eye out for gopher tortoises, a threatened species, that will likely come to graze in your yard. Roof, windows and exterior paint new in 2005. Bring kayaks and binoculars!
