POOL HOME ON 5 QUIET ACRES WITH A HUGE OUTBUILDING... Great location in Altoona with easy access to the riding trails in the Ocala National Forest like the Wandering Wiregrass Trailhead. You will find this rambling ranch home warm and cozy with 3 stone fireplaces! The formal living room has a stone fireplace as a focal point and beautiful stone floors. A favorite room in this house is the game room equipped with a pool table, built in bar and unique rustic Pecky cypress walls. This is a fantastic room for entertaining or watching TV. The third stone fireplace is a focal point in the dining room adjacent to the kitchen. The handy built in buffet & storage cabinets are nice to store holiday dishes. The 5 acres is fenced and gated with elbow room to ride ATV's or horses. After a day of riding relax in the splashing pool area and use the smokehouse to BBQ for the afternoon pool party .
