For the first time in over 100 years this 6th generation estate is being offered for sale! This 69+ acres is full of history, memories, and love. Located across the street from Ft. Cooper State Park. Ft Cooper State Park was also once part of the original 300+ acre family property, where Sally Rooks Bellamy watered her garden from the (at the time) spring fed Lake Ft Cooper while Crawford Bellamy broke horses for the US Army in WWI and ran an open-range cattle ranch. The original homestead is still on the property. It still gives you an insight of what old Florida was like. Although it is not habitable, it is something to cherish and appreciate. The old homestead was replaced by Bill Cook and Grace Bellamy McComb who built this 1176 sqft. home featuring 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in 1976 and currently serves as the property’s residence. This home has had several upgrades to include kitchen cabinetry, appliances, and roofing. The home features a gorgeous large kitchen with plenty of counterspace and cabinets galore. Separate formal dining room is convenient to the kitchen and living room. Speaking of which, the spacious living room offers just the thing to set the ambiance for a Holiday get together. Being constructed of concrete block and metal roofing is another advantage of this property.
