Old Florida Charm Meets Private Tropical Paradise! Tucked within a serene Old Florida oak hammock on over half an acre, this one-of-a-kind log cabin retreat offers a rare combination of privacy, charm, and outdoor living just minutes from the water. Enter through a gated, pull-through brick driveway surrounded by lush landscaping and complete seclusion-NO HOA, NO deed restrictions! The highlight of the property is the original "Lucas Lagoons" saltwater lagoon, a heated, sand-bottom pool with waterfall, all set inside a massive screened enclosure that creates your own tropical oasis. Inside, the cabin is full of character with custom finishes, warm wood details, and thoughtful upgrades including a newer roof (2017), HVAC, and appliances. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a large pantry, and a center island overlooking the backyard paradise. The main living area centers around a cozy wood-burning fireplace and connects to a charming dining space and bar/office nook. A spacious den with a full bath and Murphy bed offers flexibility as a 4th bedroom or guest space. The oversized garage includes a workshop area and dual large doors for easy access, complemented by a separate storage shed and covered carport for your RV or extra vehicles. Additional features include whole cabin refurbishment by a professional company from Indiana in 2023, hurricane shutters, newer septic (2017), well-fed irrigation, and no required flood insurance. Conveniently located near beaches, boat ramps, golf, shopping, restaurants, and the vibrant Dearborn Street district-this is Old Florida living at its finest!
