For added peace of mind, many of the home's windows and doors have been replaced within the past four years. Located within the private, gated Shadow Lakes community, you'll enjoy miles of interconnected spring-fed lakes, channels, and marshes that are ideal for fishing, boating, swimming, and enjoying abundant wildlife. Some waters reach depths of up to 42 feet, making them perfect for anglers seeking trophy-sized fish.
