Description

Short Sale. Do you have vision? This incredible nearly 3700sf home has unbelievalbe potential just needs some TLC and imagination! Wonderful Arthur Ruttenburg floorplan with three way split on bedrms for ultimate privacy and all of which are oversized! The kitchen/brk/family rm combo is haven for entertaining with a huge island kitchen and a larger than average family room. Multiple rooms access the pool and spa located in the screened lanai with sliders and the guest suite shares the pool bath. There is a bonus room that could easily become a media room, a gameroom or a private living area for the quest suite. The barn and stables will be a delight with plenty of storage. The grounds are fenced and cross fenced for the horses and all of this is located on a deadend street tucked away with an awesome preserve view. There are miles and miles of riding trails as PR-The Forest is an Equestrian community. Though the property is quite stressed with multiple issues needing to be addressed, this home can become the beauty it once was, again it's about vision (and means)!!
