Serene 3br, 3 Bath Estate Koti Pikku Lake Weir

My family has lived on this lake for about one hundred years. My grandparents lived down the lake a bit. I have lived in a summer cottage next door to this property since 1956. There are 2 houses on the old Greene property and I usually stay in a little house that was built in 1970. I moved into it in 1974 when I graduated from college and I have had squatters rights ever since. My parents died in 1995 and left this property to me and my 3 siblings. The man who owned the land next door to the old Greene property sold it in 1999 and my sister and I bought 36 acres. She bought the big house and 11 more acres in 2009. We have about 600 feet all togeher of waterfront now. My sister has given her land to a family trust and I am the trustee. Our family may use the property whenever they choose. No one (but me) likes to come to the lake in the winter. It is most beautiful and peaceful in the winter. I need to rent the house out for the winter months to help defray some of the expenses of keeping the house up. The back portion of the land is leased to our neighbor and he has cattle and horses on it. I am a pharmacist, as was my father and grandfather. I work at a pharmacy in Palm Beach and my permanent home is in Lake Worth, Florida. I was born and raised in Ocala as was my father. I own and manage 10 rentals in Lake Worth. We try to come to the lake one weekend a month to make sure all is well and to rekindle our inner peace. It is and always has been where I come for peace and solitude. I grew up with and still count as friends many of the people who live on the lake. My 93 year old pediatrician lives on our same road. I hope to retire to the lake one day. The Villages was all cattle pasture when I grew up. I am glad to have it there for the close proximity of shopping and entertainment but it is wonderful to get back to the lake.

We bought this property because we have always been the last house at the end of a dead end road and we like it like that! It is absolutely beautiful land with magnificent trees. My parents were always pleased that we lived on the north side of the lake so we don't get glaring sun in the morning or the evening but can appreciate the magnificent sunrises and sunsets without baking. The old Greene property is on SE 132nd place Road. Evensong can be approached from se 132nd Place Road or from 132nd place. We share a beautiful driveway from 132nd place with our neighbors.

Our neighbors bought Evensong at the same time my sister and I bought all of our land in 1999. They decided they wanted to build a new home next door and Sis loved their home and bought it from them. The master bedroom is spectacular. It has a magnificent view of the front lawn, beach and lake. I especially enjoy the balcony off the front of the bedroom. It is particularly peaceful. There is a swing out on that porch and I love to sit and read there. Sis and I were enjoying a glass of wine out there when she first bought the house and accidentally locked ourselves out of the house. We called our neighbor to come let us in and that problem has been resolved. There is also a very nice screened in porch off the living room and dining room. The sunroom and one of the guest bedrooms also open onto this porch. The boathouse has no boat in it but it does have a picnic table, couch and chairs. It is a splendid place for cocktails. It is well protected and I love to see a good rain from out there. In the evening as the sun begins to set we get hundreds of white egrets migrating overhead to their nesting grounds.
