42570 Neal Rd

Rustic country living on 10 acres CAN still be found in SW Florida. This one-of-a-kind 4BR+Den, 2.5BA log-and-stone home is the perfect getaway off the beaten path! Away from the 'hustle & bustle,' imagine enjoying the soft whisper of the wind in the tall shade trees as you watch the kids & pets play in the spacious yard. Rest assured they're protected by a long winding driveway and perimeter fencing with a solar-activated security gate. Rainy day? Take shelter on the large screened porch, or come inside and enjoy either of the 2 ground floor wood-burning fireplaces with large stone hearths. Travertine flooring accents the neutral countertops, two-toned wood cabinetry and large farm sink in the sunny kitchen. Log interior walls & ceiling surround you in cozy comfort, and three adjoining multi-purpose rooms off of the great room can be used for private workspace, a crafts room, a library, etc. Upstairs you'll find beautiful new waterproofed dark oak wood flooring, a stunning vintage clawfoot tub in the owner's bath, and new toilets and vanities, all under a BRAND NEW GREEN METAL ROOF. Outbuildings include a barn & workshop, and a fully-fenced pond is "the cherry on top!"
