About the host
Hosted by Laura Smith
We are from Florida and enjoy remodeling, renovation and new construction. We lived in this home for a few years while we worked to renovate and update this property. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.
Why they chose this property
This home is conveniently located on 5 private acres of natural Florida landscape, it feels like you are in the country and you are near two natural springs; Wekiva Springs and Kelly Springs, but not too far from the main attractions and city conveniences.
What makes this property unique
This home was originally a club house for a set of condominiums that were being built on the property. It has a large slab for parking larger vehicles and trailers if needed. Since the house is situated on 5 acres, your have more privacy and plenty of room to stretch out.
