DISCOVER THE TIMELESS CHARM OF OLD FLORIDA WATERFRONT LIVING ON BEAUTIFUL MILES KALE LAKE! Welcome to the Brown Cottage, a delightful furnished lakefront retreat where warm tongue-and-groove woodwork, peaceful water views, and generations of family memories create a truly special atmosphere. Nestled along the shoreline of spring-fed Miles Kale Lake in Fort McCoy, this charming 1-bedroom, 1-bath cottage offers an inviting escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Step inside and experience the character of a classic Florida lake house, featuring beautiful wood ceilings, a comfortable living area, a spacious family room, and a welcoming kitchen and dining area. The screened porch provides a wonderful place to enjoy morning coffee, refreshing lake breezes, and relaxing evenings overlooking the water. Outside, the property's wooden dock offers a place to enjoy the lake, cast a fishing line, or simply take in the peaceful surroundings. According to the longtime owners, Miles Kale Lake is a natural spring-fed lake with a sandy bottom, gradually sloping shoreline, and relatively little boat traffic, making it an inviting setting for kayaking, fishing, and waterfront recreation. The cottage is offered furnished with household essentials, with the dining room furniture excluded from the sale. An attached laundry shed adds everyday convenience. Previously enjoyed by paying vacation guests, including repeat visitors, the property offers an opportunity for buyers interested in exploring continued vacation rental use, subject to applicable regulations. Situated along NE 105th Avenue Road, a quiet dirt road, this waterfront property offers a peaceful rural setting with frontage along the roadway. The existing driveway is shared with the neighboring Green House parcel; separate driveway access may be possible, with legal access documentation currently being reviewed. Conveniently located within reach of Silver Springs State Park, the Ocala National Forest, and Historic Downtown Ocala, the cottage offers opportunities to enjoy the natural beauty and outdoor recreation of North Central Florida. The neighboring Big Green House and an additional wooded waterfront parcel are also available individually, or purchase all three adjoining properties together as a unique waterfront family retreat. WHETHER YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A WEEKEND ESCAPE, SEASONAL GETAWAY, FULL-TIME RESIDENCE, OR A SPECIAL PLACE TO MAKE NEW FAMILY MEMORIES, THE BROWN COTTAGE INVITES YOU TO EXPERIENCE THE SIMPLE PLEASURES OF LIFE ON THE LAKE!
