Quiet, Secluded, Secure, and Convenient all describe this near 15 acre estate in Palmetto. The access road meanders through a small subdivision near the Buffalo Creek golf course ending abruptly into a wall an old Florida oak hammock. A remotely controlled iron gate and security camera separates passers-by from the 200 yard long shell drive way that carves its way through the dense vegetation to a small clearing where the 3000 s.f Key West residence sits --surrounded by another 3000 square feet of porchand a shaded by century old oaks. The home features an open kitchen and great room with soaring ceilings finished in light colored tongue in groove wood, a wood burning fireplace, a huge gourmet kitchen with all the upgrades, and a 300 gallon in-wall aquarium with its own maintenance room. The large 4th bedroom has been converted to huge office. An open pool sits between the home and the large 4 car garage. Several sets of sliding glass doors provide a view of a small wetland area behind the home that attracts an abundance of birds and wildlife. Most of the acreage is in its raw and untamed state with cart paths cut through it for walking, riding, or jogging. But seclusion doesn't mean lack of amenities. The property is less than 5 minutes to the intersection of 301 and Erie road or US 41 and the I-75/275 entrance ramp. County water and electric are available as is broadband internet and cable TV.
