Property Description
Back on market due to buyer circumstances—no issues with home, inspection, or appraisal. Discover this exceptional five-bedroom estate, complete with a dedicated office and private in-law suite, an ideal blend of elegance, flexibility, and opportunity for you to update and make it your own. Nestled beneath a canopy of majestic live oaks on 3.5 acres of lush, sun-dappled grounds, this property offers endless possibilities for families, multigenerational living, Airbnb hosting, or homesteading. As you stroll beneath moss-draped branches, a sense of tranquility and timeless charm welcomes you home. Inside, a grand sunlit staircase leads to formal living and dining rooms that exude classic sophistication. The heart of the home is a cozy family room with a fireplace, seamlessly connected to an expansive screened lanai and sparkling pool, perfect for indoor-outdoor living. The chef’s kitchen is thoughtfully designed with abundant cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, and generous counter space, flowing into both formal and casual dining areas. The in-law suite on the main floor features its own living room, kitchenette, en suite bath, and private entrance via the pool—ideal for long-term guests or extended family. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with a private sitting area that can double as an office or fitness space. French doors open to a balcony overlooking the pool and gardens, creating a serene escape. Three additional bedrooms—two with en suite baths and one with direct bath access—provide comfort and privacy for all. Step outside to enjoy morning coffee with birdsong and unwind with golden sunsets through the oaks. The resort-style pool and spa offer a private sanctuary for sun-soaked afternoons and relaxing evenings. A former tennis court invites your imagination—restore it for tennis, convert it to pickleball, or transform it into a garden or equestrian space. Zoned for agriculture, Tara Oaks welcomes horses, chickens, goats, or cows, allowing you to embrace a rural lifestyle with modern comforts. The oversized two-car garage includes a workshop or storage area, perfect for hobbies or homesteading. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of Florida heritage, where natural beauty, timeless elegance, and limitless potential come together in perfect harmony.
