STAR LAKE - Custom A-Frame Home, Total Remodel in 2023. Rarely does a custom home on highly sought after Star Lake, come up for sale in the public market. Many homes are sold by “word of mouth” sales. Listed is a beautiful custom 2045 sq ft, 3 bd 2 bath A-Frame home on .70 acres with spectacular views of beautiful Star Lake. Star Lake is a private lake in the Star Lake Forest Community with an option to join the HOA with $50 dues/year. Star Lake is a spring fed private lake known for its sandy bottom, great fishing and swimming. This all glass-front A-Frame facing the lake, has soaring lake views from either the living room or interior large balcony upstairs. The living room and entire home has dark stained Cedar Beams with a 30 ft height to the peak in the living room. The ceilings and roof are 1" Tongue & Groove. The home has 3 large bedrooms and 2 large baths as well as a separate room that can be used for dining or an office.

The road side of home is heavily wooded with the old Florida charm, dripping “Spanish moss”, and wild animals. The home is surrounded by site built homes as well as several new homes being built in the immediate area. Star Lake Forest is a community of 3 separate lakes, Star, Riley, and Blue Lake. Star Lake is 234 acres. Unlike some lakes, Star Lake is historically a very stable lake and fluctuates no more than 1-2 ft average. The optional HOA affords opportunities to meet your neighbors with several gatherings each year on the commons lot which is owned by HOA members. The HOA works to improve the community's lakes and roadways in many ways. There are picnic tables on the commons lot and a concrete boat ramp, in which the locked gate is keyed for HOA members only. Simply stunning, a must see, and move-in ready. Just minutes to Historic Hawthorne Florida and a short commute to Gainesville, Palatka and Ocala
