AFFORDABLE FLORIDA PARADISE WITH A FRONT YARD VIEW OF THE OCALA NATIONAL FOREST!!! This is a residential lot in Forestview, a mobile/manufactured home community. Forestview is the easternmost of three cozy neighborhoods in northern Lake County, surrounding Lake Kathryn and nestled up against the southern edge of the Ocala National Forest. This is a LEVEL LOT available for you to add your own manufactured home. Although the lot is CLEARED, there are some beautiful large trees, including a stunning palm at the front of the lot. May be used for a MANUFACTURED, MODULAR, or SITE-BUILT HOME! *** A RARITY IN A FLORIDA MANUFACTURED HOME COMMUNITY: this lot, like other lots in this neighborhood on CR 42, has a dirt/sand back alley to preserve the appearance of the main road by allowing owners to park in the back of the properties and to put out trash receptacles for pick-up. The main road and other main roads in the neighborhood are paved. Fences allowed. Located within the county, so property tax rates as of 2021 are lower than a property in a Lake County municipal district. *** If you enjoy easy access to NATURE and appreciate being near a RENOWNED national park, this is an OPPORTUNITY you won't want to miss exploring! Ocala National Forest information can be found at https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/florida/recarea/?recid=83528 *** A 2 bed / 1 bath mobile home existed on the lot previously but was removed. According to Lake County, previous mobile home was 12' x 60', with a 8' x 13' open porch and a 10' x 15' carport; septic system was permitted and inspected in 2002/2003, water is public, so no well is needed; IMPACT FEES (road, school, etc.) for previous mobile home were PAID, so a buyer wanting to put a similar manufactured home on the property should be credited the impact fees paid. ELECTRICTY TO THE PROPERTY is run overhead along the back alley for the property. Buyer is responsible for verifying all information regarding the property since the owner has very limited knowledge of the property.
