About This Home

As of April 2024

Don't miss the opportunity to own this one-of-a-kind property on 1.9 acres (2 separate parcels) with golf course frontage on Watermark Country Club's #9 fairway. The 3,000-plus finished sq ft ranch home needs some love, but it has excellent bones, or it could be a great opportunity for a teardown and to build your dream home. The large lot size, end of the cul-de-sac location, 1,664 sq ft outbuilding, pond frontage, golf course frontage with no HOA, easy access to the Watermark amenities (pool, restaurants, clubhouse, Snap Fitness, etc.), close proximity to Forest Hills Central to schools, restaurants, and other area amenities more make it unlike anything else in the area. The home features three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, two kitchens, a large primary bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, a living room with a wood-burning fireplace, and a plethora of living/entertaining space. The lower level provides tons of potential for additional living space and storage. Call today to schedule a showing!
