149 SW Blackpine Ter, Lake City, FL 32024

3BR, 2BA home for sale in Forest Country. Just over one acre with a shed, two fire pits, concrete slab to park your RV or Boat and includes an outdoor 30 Amp circuit. Pump and Septic. Septic just pumped in February 2024. Roof and siding recently cleaned. House is ready to move in – no carpet…all tiile and laminate flooring. As you can see from some of the pictures, there are times when this home is like an observation tower in a wildlife refuge with deer, turkeys, foxes, and every variety of bird that is native to this part of Florida – Robins, thrashers, cardinals, blue jays, owls, hawks and even the occasional hummingbird. Came through Idalia without a scratch. Plenty of trees on the property. Property behind was planted pine but was cut and remains unplanted at this time providing open vistas but still plenty of buffering for noise and light. Wooded buffers between you and your neighbors. Master bedroom has a large walk-in closet and a hallway closet. Two sinks in the master bath and a walk-in shower. One guest room is at the back of the house with beautiful views of the back yard. The other is at the front with a view of the side yard (we have used this as an office). Guest bath has a tub/shower combo. Plenty of attic space with access through the drop-down ladder in the garage and a second, smaller access through the walk-in closet in the Master suite. Tin roof, wood burning stove/fireplace in the living room. Large window in the front of the house in the living room and sliders to the back porch. New patio and awning. Two car garage that has served as a game room for us with a pool table and dart board. Programmable sprinkler system. Air handler replaced in 2021. Water softer system with twin filters and salt tank – all serviced in 2022 and in great condition. Forest Country is an incredibly family friendly community about 5 minutes south of Lake City on Banford Highway (CR247). This house sits at the very back of the community with limited likelihood of development behind or beside you for the next few years. Don’t miss this opportunity to have your own paradise. Oh, and if you are so inclined, there is plenty of room for a pool or put in a small hot tub on the screened in back porch!! $35 per year HOA is voluntary and pays to maintain the front entrance and provide a "community phone directory".
