Five freestanding buildings with screened decks and porches accommodate 6 or more residents or serve as art studios or business quarters. 4 full bathrooms, 1 outdoor shower, 2 wells, and a 16,000-gal screened-in saltwater pool and hot tub ringed with an artful brick paver deck. Acreage is fenced and bamboo-lined on two sides with lakefront comprising a third side.

This is a magical property that has good karma. It is scented with ginger, orange blossom, and jasmine that attract butterflies and wildlife, and would be ideal for community living, retirement, extended family, art studios, AirBnb units, recreation, or a cottage industry.
