Property Description
A TIMELESS SOUTHERN RETREAT ON APPROX. 7 ACRES | PRIVATE SKI LAKE Beneath a canopy of majestic oaks and whispering cypress trees sits a farmhouse unlike any other—timeless, peaceful, and steeped in classic Southern charm. Welcome to Cranes Rest, a storybook homestead set on approximately seven park-like acres along the shimmering waters of Lake Erie, where life slows down and every day feels beautifully intentional. From the moment you arrive, the gracious wraparound porch invites you to linger—rocking chair mornings in the shade, sunset evenings by the water in an Adirondack chair. Spend your days canoeing, fishing, or waterskiing on the lake, then retreat home to quiet moments and simple pleasures. Step inside to a home defined by warmth, craftsmanship, and comfort. At its heart is a brand-new custom kitchen, thoughtfully designed with Knotty Alder cabinetry, quartz countertops, seeded glass and cane inset doors, a custom tabletop island, and new stainless steel appliances—perfect for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. Newly refinished solid oak floors, coffered ceilings, and tongue-and-groove woodwork flow throughout the main level, creating rich, inviting spaces. The kitchen opens seamlessly to the living room, where a wood-burning fireplace with a rustic beam mantle anchors the space, complemented by a custom built-in bookcase. A nearby wet bar with wine refrigerator encourages you to pour a glass and stay awhile. The formal dining room overlooks the lush grounds, turning every meal into an occasion, while a private den with French doors opens to a covered porch—an ideal spot for morning coffee or a quiet afternoon escape. The first-floor primary suite is a serene retreat of its own, featuring a cozy fireplace and tranquil garden views through double French doors that lead toward the lake. Upstairs, you’ll find a light-filled bonus room with stunning lake views, two additional bedrooms, a newly renovated full bath, and a second office currently used as a fourth bedroom—perfect for guests, remote work, or creative pursuits. Brand-new designer carpet has just been installed throughout the upper level. Connected by a screened porch and breezeway, the property also includes a private mother-in-law suite with its own full bathroom and laundry room—ideal for extended family, visitors, or flexible living arrangements. Outside, the magic continues. Blooming camellias, pineapple plants, crepe myrtles, and golden rain trees fill the landscape with color and fragrance. Deer, wild turkeys, and a fourth generation of resident sandhill cranes roam freely. Whether your vision includes horses, gardening, ATV adventures, or firefly-filled summer nights, this land is ready to bring it to life. Additional highlights include a two-car side-entry carport (easily convertible to a garage) and a covered boat dock, offering direct access to the lake just steps from your back door. This is Groveland—The City with Natural Charm—where Old Florida lives on, not just in memory, but in every sunrise over the water, every breeze through the trees, and every lovingly crafted detail of this remarkable homestead. Come write your next chapter here. Your timeless Southern retreat awaits.
