Tucked away on 2.03 acres in the sought-after Oak Creek subdivision, this 5-bedroom, 3-bath home offers privacy, flexibility, and convenience in the Hernando School District. Surrounded by mature woods, the lot creates a true backyard retreat with a private setting that is hard to find. Inside, the home offers 2,452 heated square feet, a vaulted living room ceiling, updated primary and downstairs baths. The outdoor space is where this property really separates itself. The brick paver patio is ready for entertaining, the above-ground pool with deck adds summer fun, and the beautifully manicured landscaping is designed for low-maintenance living. Car lovers, hobbyists, and buyers needing extra space will appreciate the total of 5 garage spaces, including the detached 3-car garage. Above the detached garage, the garage apartment adds even more versatility with a kitchenette, space for an apartment-size refrigerator, sitting area, full bath, and bedroom. Ideal for guests, a private home office or business setup, teen hangout, or potential rental income. An added bonus is the unique future opportunity for separate access from Oak Wood Dr. East, offering potential for a future shop or garage entrance that can remain separate from the main backyard living space. All of this with no HOA, no city taxes, and a quiet country feel just minutes from Walmart, dining, and everything Hernando has to offer.
