The story
- Waterfront
Lakefront, LAKEFRONT, 75 feet of lake frontage, your view is 1.02 miles across open water to undeveloped, protected land of Lake Panasoffkee Wildlife Management area. Stand on the dock and count the bluegill in the clear water. You are located on the north side of the lake, toward the center is lots of eel grass, fish the edges for big bass, across the lake is shell island – known for beds loaded with panfish. The lake is approximately 5 miles long running north to south and a mile east to west. When the water is up you can explore Little Jones Creek and find the springs. Head down Outlook River and go to the Withlacoochee River. It is a 141 mile river system that goes all the way to the Gulf of America. Parts of the River are OLD undeveloped Florida. Head south on the river and you will need extra gas to explore all the water. If the Wysong Lock is down you can make it all the way to Rainbow Springs. Lake Panasoffkee is a paradise for people that love the water, fishing, exploring and wildlife. Don’t forget the Wildlife Management Areas: 2 across the lake, Jumper Creek on the south side of town and 4 in neighboring Citrus County. This is paradise for outdoor lovers. The house is like a concrete bunker. It was built in the days when homes where built to last. Everything is stone solid. Bathrooms are original and in great shape. Kitchen appliances are original and do their job. Not like the modern stuff, spends thousands on a new frig and your replacing in a couple of years. Underneath the carpet are Terrazzo floors. Walls are plaster. Roof is metal and replaced in 2025, A/C replaced in May of 2025, paint was new in 2023, water tank was replaced in 23 – insurance companies will be ecstatic. The home is neat and clean, will cared for and ready for your decorating or up dating. If you are looking for a weekend paradise or winter paradise, hurry, hurry, hurry. This has a lot to offer for the price. This area is a hidden gem, other lakes are priced out of the common man’s budget. Hurry before this area gets discovered. Oops, I almost forgot about the location. Hwy 75 makes travel easy, 47 minutes to downtown Ocala or just over an hour to downtown Tampa, Orlando is 62 minutes away. You get to live in nature and be close to the city life. For local entertainment, shopping and dining it’s 20 to 25 minutes to Brownwood, Eastport or Middleton in the Villages. When the day is done, pour a glass of wine, walk down to your dock, and watch the evening sky come alive as birds glide across the lake heading to roost. It's the perfect way to unwind and enjoy peaceful lake life.
