PRICED BELOW APPRAISAL of $1,328000! An estate home quietly set off a private drive for added privacy on 11.27 acres near Umatilla, FL. Featuring five bedrooms, five ensuite bathrooms, plus two half baths, this home welcomes you to tranquility among mature oak trees, pastures, and an expansive front porch where you can relax and enjoy the swing. As you walk in, you are greeted by a beautifully updated home with 3,879 sq ft of living space and over 7,300 sq ft under roof. This home was extensively renovated in 2021 with a new roof, PEX plumbing, and premium flooring throughout. The kitchen and all five ensuite bathrooms are modern and thoughtfully designed. The primary suite offers true luxury, featuring built-in closets and a cozy sitting area. The ensuite bathroom is elegant, with double sinks, lighted mirrors, a walk-in shower with multiple shower heads, a private water closet, and a custom walk-in closet. The chef’s kitchen features a six-burner propane stove with a pot filler, a dedicated coffee bar, farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, and beautiful Calacatta quartz countertops with a large island where guests can gather. This open-concept home flows seamlessly into the living room, complete with a fully functional wood-burning fireplace, double sliding glass doors, and views of the pool and lanai area. Outside, you’ll find a 9-foot-deep sparkling pool with a rock water feature. Want to watch a movie? Step into the family room, slightly tucked away, which also includes an alcove ideal for an office space. The oversized laundry room features newly installed cabinetry and outdoor access. Property highlights include a new 720 sq ft pole barn, irrigated garden, mature fruit trees, and pens for chickens, sheep, and pigs. The robust infrastructure includes a 180-foot-deep well, a reverse osmosis drinking water system, and three HVAC zones. Two units were replaced in 2021, and the 4-ton unit is professionally serviced annually. Dedicated propane lines (installed in 2021) service the kitchen stove, clothes dryer, and outdoor grilling area (leased tank). The 2023 pool enhancements include a new high-efficiency variable-speed pump and complete repainting. On-site pool solar heater panels (minor repair needed) provide energy-efficient heating. The high-capacity 14-inch well system includes a 2 HP submersible pump and an 85-gallon bladder tank for consistent pressure. With no HOA or rental restrictions, this estate is ideal as a private sanctuary, hobby farm, or high-end short-term rental.
