"Mariposa is unique" - we get this a LOT! People love her one-of-a-kind door, but that's not all that makes her special. She has wonderful windows that let in a lot of light. The dark wood (floors and ceiling beams) are a striking contrast to the light filled spaces. Did I mention we have places to hang? Mariposa invites you to hang-out whatever room you're in. There is a large, eat-in kitchen with some games and plenty of decks of cards, a formal dining room and living room. Outside you have the courtyard with plenty of seating to talk, stream TV or listen to some tunes! In the backyard, there is the beautiful firepit area with Adirondack chairs, hammocks and swings. The back porch that runs the whole length of the back of the house is where you'll find the grill, Trager smoker, and more seating for good measure!

Chateau Mariposa is in an agricultural/rural community, nestled among the trees, giving a feeling of seclusion, even though you are close to modern amenities. The Dollar General and Publix is just up the road a bit for those last minute grocery needs (2-3 miles) and there is an Anytime Fitness, liquor store and a few other stores in the Publix shopping plaza as well. (on US19/Commercial Way). If you drive just a few more miles, you will encounter restaurants, shopping, etc. Some of our fav things about this area are the farm and wildlife we encounter. NOTE: We are within a 12 mile radius considered "BEAR COUNTRY", although we have yet to see a bear. That would be quite the site! There are beautiful horses who come right up to the fence on one side of the property. We have a resident Gopher Tortoise - Sir Sheldon - on the premises. He makes guest appearances from time-to-time. Mariposa (Butterflies), the properties namesake, is due to the many butterflies that call the chateau home. We have seen multiple swallowtails, monarchs, cloudless sulphurs, and the zebra longwing butterflies - to name a few. The bird watching is pretty fine too. We love to watch the pileated woodpecker (the biggest of the species boasting sizes from 16-19" tall).
