About this home
Melrose
Welcome to your dream lakefront escape! This stunning 3-bedroom, 2-bath home perfectly blends country charm with a touch of class. Nestled in a peaceful, secluded setting just 35 minutes from Gainesville, this property offers the best of both worlds — close to city amenities but private enough to feel like a vacation every day. Step out onto the spacious back porch and take in serene views of the lake, or cast a line from your own fish house just steps away. Inside, enjoy an open layout ideal for both relaxing and entertaining, with warm finishes and a modern yet cozy feel. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence or the perfect weekend retreat, this home is your lakeside haven.
Cost to own
True monthly cost
What this home actually costs per month at the asking price — not just the mortgage.
- • Homeowners insurance is on top — in Florida it varies widely with roof age and wind/flood zone (see the Reality Check below). Budget it before you offer.
- • In CDD communities (Nocatee, eTown, Seven Pines…), bond assessments are collected on the property-tax bill, and the amount varies home to home — a prior owner may have prepaid the bond — so we confirm this home’s exact line rather than trust a community average.
- • Taxes are estimated at YOUR purchase price — Florida assessments reset on sale, so the seller’s current bill is usually lower than yours will be.

Storms & insurance
Florida Reality Check
The storm-and-insurance facts every Florida buyer should know up front.
Flood zone not yet determined
Check the exact parcel at msc.fema.gov or ask Krista to pull it.
Flood damage is not covered by standard homeowners insurance — it’s always a separate policy.
Evacuation zone not yet determined
Check floridadisaster.org/knowyourzone.
Roof: Metal — year not disclosed (home built 1968)
Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.
Solar potential: ~1,618 usable sun-hours per year
A strong solar roof by Florida standards — worth pricing panels if energy bills matter to you.
Krista can connect you with local insurance quotes before you make an offer.
Ask about this homeThis Reality Check is informational only — it draws on FEMA/FDEM hazard layers, Florida DOH water records, and the listing’s own fields at this property’s coordinates. None of it is a determination, survey, or inspection, and public records can lag or conflict with on-site conditions. Independently verify anything you’ll rely on: the flood zone at msc.fema.gov and floridadisaster.org/knowyourzone (and confirm flood-insurance cost with your lender and a licensed insurance agent), and the sewer/septic, roof, and utilities with a professional inspection.
