Description

This charming old Florida country house is situated on a 1-acre double corner lot, surrounded by many beautiful old oak trees. The house has recently undergone some updates, including a brand-new roof, AC system, and newer appliances. The house has also been freshly painted and features a decorative front door, full-view French doors, and solid wood cabinets. Open-concept design, partially fenced large yard, and no HOA! The neighborhood is perfect for those who enjoy country living but also want easy access to town amenities, as it's only 6 miles away. Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to Lake Okeechobee, known for its excellent speckled perch and bass fishing. And if you're in the mood for some retail therapy or beach time, both are just a 40-minute drive away
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from March 31, 2026

    "The county has quite a few events in the five parks through thr Maine streets in town;art festivals, cookoffs. Food truck events, parades. The Agri-Civic Center hosts not only rodeos, but also the County Fair, a Halloween Festival to minimize house to house trick or treating, and anyone can sponsor a booth, with carnival type games, mini dog races. There is also a Community Health Fair each year in January, with local hospital, clinics and emergency services being involved. The Tri County Food Bank also does a distribution about three times a year. "

    "After 20 years, I still love my neighborhood and our small town. Quiet, friendly. The only downside is when the snowbirds invade us from September to around April. Then our population goes from around 25,000 to over 40,000. Traffic. Ugh. But a small price to pay for the rest of the year. "
