This solid block home on 5 acres is the perfect NSB country retreat that allows you to enjoy the comforts and proximity to town with all the benefits of having land and privacy. Zoning allows for agricultural uses, including horses and livestock. Just 2 miles from historic downtown Canal St. and 4 miles to the beach, there is plenty of room for your animals, boats, RVs, ATVs, and golf carts. Recent updates include 2'x4' porcelain tile flooring, newer windows, recessed lighting and fans, modern country kitchen with solid wood soft-close cabinetry, café appliances, farmhouse sink, and live edge custom shelving, island and mantle from a local sawmill. Quartz tops in kitchen and the bathroom vanities. The primary bedroom features sliding doors to a custom closet and spa-like bathroom. Lots of natural light and views of green pastures from every room. Built in cabinets in mudroom/laundry for additional storage. The exterior is fully fenced with a double gated entry so your animals will always be safe. Two pastures with city water spigots in the front of the property are crossed fenced with several gated access points, north pasture with 15’x12’ open shelter, and south pasture with a two-stall plus chicken coop 30’x12’ structure. Barn/workshop is 610 sq ft with metal roof, electricity, and covered lanai perfect for entertaining overlooking the approximately 1 acre aerated pond. Wood privacy fence near the rear of the property. There is an outdoor shower as well as a 30-amp RV hook up for guests. A Red Lion 230V pump installed and ready to irrigate the entire property from the well. Paddle board, canoe, fish in the pond, and watch the egrets, herons, bald eagles, ducks, roseate spoonbills, turtles, and even the occasional otter family visit in the backyard. Property is subdividable (into 2.5 acre parcels), and you could build your dream house while you live in the current home. Roof 2016, AC 2022, water heater 2017.
