Homestead For Sale in North Tallahassee This productive and aesthetically-appealing homestead is located in a very quiet neighborhood in the Lake Jackson area. It has a 2 BR, 2 Bath, 984 sq. ft. home that features a back yard with a lime tree; a plum tree; a Muscadine Delicious (black) grape vine (on a bronze-colored Old English Garden trellis); 2 kiwi fruit vines (each on their own Old English Garden trellises); 3 garden beds (ca. 5.5 x 3.5 x 1 foot, each) (one presently filled with sweet potato and green pepper plants); 7 decorative concrete blocks (which are painted white, and serve as planters (presently, there are Goldenrod and Venta floral plants in the left holes, and Lacinato Kale in the right holes). There are also 2 planters that are tiered like fountains (also in a burnished bronze color) presently serving to grow herbs. In the front yard there are 2 Arbequina olive trees (with space to put a Koroneiki olive tree right between them should you wish to do so); a grapefruit tree; and some Dyanthus and Goldenrod flowers mixed in amongst 4 blueberry bushes. And on the southerly side of the house theres a patch of native wild daisies that the pollinators just love ????(!) All of this production is taking place on a 3, 485 sq. ft. lot. And yes, theres room to add an additional tree (bush? vine?) or two, here and there. The food-producing capabilities of this lot were made possible by such improvements as: - Removed a very large stump in the back yard; - Removed a large tree and its stump in the front yard; - Removed zillions of red lava stones from the front yard (where the blueberry bushes now are); - Removed some very over-grown bushes that took up large parts of the back yard; - Removed large branches from a back yard tree, allowing more sunlight for the garden; and - Laid down a drainage system so trees/plants in its area wouldnt drown during a prolonged rain. Numerous improvements have also been made to the house since it was purchased. These include: - Installed a new hot water heater (2 years old); - Installed a new refrigerator (2 years old); - Installed two new toilets (one 2 years old and the other 2 months old); - Installed a new shelf and clothing rack (for long garments) in the master bedroom closet; - Installed a new ceiling fan/light in the guest bedroom; - Installed a wall cabinet above the toilet in the master bathroom; - Installed a towel bar (and matching toilet paper holder) in the guest bathroom; - Refinished the kitchen countertops; - Installed a mother-of-pearl backsplash behind the stove; - Secured and strengthened the (very weak) shelves in the food pantry; - Removed and replaced a defective wall outlet in the master bedroom; and - Pressure washed the house and the back yard fence. -Installed additional insulation in attic to decrease utility consumption Note: The teepee like frames around the citrus trees have accompanying covers that protect those trees from winter frosts. They did a very good job at protecting the lime and grapefruit trees during the extended freezing temperatures of last winter. And yes, these greenhouses come with the property. Also coming with the property are the wine-bottle watering systems (resting in a porous ceramic watering stake) that are at the base of many of the trees and vines on the property. These should be removed during the winter months. (Itll be easy to store them over the winter in their shipping boxes.) Two bedrooms, each with its own walk-in closet and full bathroom. Indoor laundry room with W/D, and outdoor utility room, fenced in backyard. 2014 Roof, HVAC is regularly serviced and works well, 2022 Refrigerator and hot water heater. A great home in a quiet neighborhood!
