JEWEL ON THE EMERALD COAST

Ever want to live in a log home?  You can now!  This wonderful log house was built in 2000 as an energy miser home, (which is great in the current economy!), and currently power bills average $70. to $130. a month!  Homeowner’s insurance rate is low too, affording you the availability of living 30 minutes from the white sandy beaches of Santa Rosa Beach and Destin, Florida without having to pay the higher homeowner’s insurance rates.  Minutes from shopping and town this oasis sits on 5 acres in Woodlawn, a desirable rural neighborhood just outside historic DeFuniak Springs, Florida.  With 2 master suites, (one up, one down), both with all cedar baths and closets it also has a large loft that can be used as living space, extra bedroom, (has 4 windows, 2 skylights and a closet), or as a studio which is what it is  right now.  The open floor plan downstairs allows for easy entertaining or just cozying up with your family.  The grounds are carved out of nature around the house with plenty of yard and grass, a vegetable garden and workshop. The yard then just blends into nature and gives you ”country living in a city location”.  For nine years everyone who has walked into this place says one word, “WOW”…although the pictures are good, they do not even do this beautiful home justice.  This is something you’ve got to see for yourself AND you’ve got a real motivated seller.  Come see this dream home and make an offer…It just might be yours!  LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! all at 185 Forrest Oak Road
