This exceptional Lake Alto estate offers serene waterfront living on one of North Central Florida’s most distinctive natural lakes—a roughly 573-acre waterbody just south of Waldo that helps form the headwaters of the Santa Fe River and is defined by largely undeveloped, conservation-focused shoreline. With expansive lake views, approximately 338 feet of private shoreline, quiet surroundings, and fewer than 30 homes fronting the lake, this rare eight-acre property provides an uncommon sense of privacy, ecological integrity, and long-term stewardship. Thoughtfully arranged across the site are four structures that support true multigenerational living and flexible use. The main residence offers 2,974 square feet of heated and cooled space and includes a large bay suitable for a boat, coach/camper, or future living expansion, while the second lakefront home—1,552 square feet with three bedrooms and two baths—was fully remodeled in 2022, ideal for extended family or guests. A recently updated dock (2022) anchors the lake experience, complemented by a 30'×40' metal workshop and a 12'×20' storage or craft studio, creating a property well suited for family gatherings, creative pursuits, and a legacy-oriented lifestyle rooted in nature.
