This lakefront retreat on Mason Lake offers the perfect balance of natural beauty, tranquility, and modern comfort. Situated on a gorgeous wooded lot surrounded by majestic oaks and longleaf pines, the 2014-built home feels like a private escape while delivering the conveniences of contemporary living. This property is a wonderful option for investors interested in short term rentals when not enjoying the property personally! The thoughtfully designed layout centers around a custom kitchen that anchors the open living and dining spaces, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining! A cozy wood-burning fireplace creates a welcoming gathering spot, while three spacious bedrooms—each with its own private ensuite bath—offer exceptional comfort, privacy, and flexibility for family and guests. Step outside to the screened lanai, generous enough to host a crowd yet perfectly suited for intimate evenings. With panoramic lake views and seamless indoor–outdoor flow, this inviting space can be enjoyed year-round! Outdoor living continues with a charming brick fire pit for evening gatherings, complemented by a lakeshore covered deck that provides shaded seating and direct access to the water. An oversized outdoor shower offers a refreshing rinse after long days on the lake. Mason Lake is ideal for water sports, including boating, kayaking, paddle boarding, tubing, and swimming in its clear, refreshing waters. Located just 30 minutes from Gainesville, this Lake property offers easy access to shopping, dining, and the University of Florida—while remaining far enough away to preserve true lakeside peace! Beautifully maintained and thoughtfully designed, this modern lakefront retreat combines comfort, privacy, and recreation.
