Description

Claim your tranquil "slice of paradise" at the "no wake" entry of Historic Melrose Bay on Santa Fe Lake.  This spring-fed lake is considered one of North Central Florida's most pristine, clean, stable lakes and has been designated by the State of Florida as an Outstanding Florida Water.  Enjoy breathtaking 3 mile long views through the Santa Fe Pass to Little Lake Santa Fe, headwaters of the Santa Fe River, the largest tributary of the Suwannee River. Your family and friends will enjoy swimming, skiing, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, sailing ... even flying (see photo) directly from your dock and "grandfathered-in" enclosed boathouse.  The clean lake water abounds with many varieties of fish to catch for dinner.  From your porch and dock you will see river otters swim by and wild birds (egrets, blue herons, hawks, falcons, ospreys, sand hill cranes, owls, and bald eagles) who are attracted to nearby wildlife preserves, protected forests and conservancy areas. The home, situated among numerous species of towering trees, has a split-bedroom plan, screened porch and Florida room.  All room measurements are approximate.  Ceilings are 8 ft. 3 in. high in the original home.   Two bedrooms (7 ft. 11 in. to ceiling with beams) and a bath are separated by a Florida Room from the main house and were an addition in 1972.  Each of the two bedrooms are cooled by wall air conditioners.  There are also two separate outbuildings that may be used as garage, storage, workshop, or gardening facilities.  We've been told that the larger (20 ft. x 23.75 ft.) building is a surplus WWII Army Barrack from Camp Blanding.  The other is a galvanized metal shed/garage with a dirt floor which measures 12 ft. x 20 ft.  The roofs of the main house and two accessory buildings were installed in 2009.Melrose, a quaint, small town and artistic center, has numerous sites listed on the National Register of Historic Places. You're less than a mile's picturesque walk or bike ride from the Post Office, Library, grocery and great restaurants.  The home is approximately 15 miles from Gainesville Airport and only minutes further to downtown Gainesville, the University of Florida, and major medical centers.  Ocala, Palatka, St. Augustine and Jacksonville are within commuting distance.   Call for an appointment to preview this home!  Owner is a licensed Florida Real Estate Broker - inactive.Additional property info: http://www.forsalebyowner.com/listing/4-bed-Single-Family-home-for-sale-by-owner-6414-Latchstring-Lane-32666/23978274?provider_id=28079
