Step into this unique, once in a lifetime listing! A fully finished, rustic chic, two-story luxury log cabin nestled in the heart of central Florida. Living here is like being at your dream rustic getaway all the time.
This three bed, four bath two-story home was custom built in 2019 by a log home constructor from North Carolina, making it not only totally one of a kind but also fitted with new, high quality fixtures throughout. There is also an unfinished attic that offers storage space with potential to be converted into a loft space. Situated on five acres of land with an enclosed three and a half acre pasture in the back, this property is perfect for a family ready to start or expand their homestead.
Enter the five acre property from either of its two driveways and immediately see the beautifully stained log home with a striking copper roof. Upon entering the home, you can smell the wood and see the beautiful natural markings of the logs bathed in the warm lighting from the custom copper light fixtures throughout the house. The first floor is an open floor-plan with a large living room space, spacious kitchen with brand new appliances and gorgeous quartz counter tops, a laundry/mud room with a back door entrance, a downstairs full bathroom, and a dining room with a beautiful and unique chandelier. The kitchen has wood cabinets with under the cabinet lighting as well as statement lighting fixtures above the copper farm-style sink where you can look out the large window to see the back of the property. The luxury vinyl flooring throughout the house ties everything together. The stained wood stairs take you to the next level which has a custom design on the midway landing. The second story has three bedrooms, the primary, and two generously sized additional rooms. All three bedrooms have their own attached bathroom. The primary bedroom’s bathroom offers a jacuzzi tub with beautiful stone tiling as well as a custom built shower. There is also a balcony attached to the primary bedroom, the perfect place to enjoy the natural Florida wilderness you’re surrounded by. The primary bedroom has a large walk-in-closet with barn doors as well. The house offers excellent natural lighting with Anderson hurricane proof windows and doors.
The property has dual AC units, for the upstairs and downstairs. A detached garage behind the home offers extra storage. The property is equipped to have water and electric run to the back of the five acres for farming as well. This secluded five acre lot offers privacy and serenity surrounded by Florida’s natural environment as it backs up to the Lake Wales Ridge State Forrest, which is thousands of acres of protected land. At the end of Wakeford Rd., just a half a mile walk from this property, is the Tiger Creek Preserve which offers multiple beautiful walking trails. While this property offers a degree of seclusion from the hustle and bustle of a town or city, it is still a less than fifteen minute drive into the main hub of the quaint and growing town of Lake Wales.
