OWNER FINANCING, NO CREDIT NEEDED!! $1,000 DOWN PAYMENT, $367.44 A MONTH FOR 36 MONTHS AT 7% INTEREST! Highlands County spans more than 1,106 square miles and is home to over 27 natural lakes, offering plenty of spots for boating and fishing, with none bigger than Lake Istokpoga, which stretches across nearly 26,763 acres and stands as the county's largest lake. The area is also home to Sebring International Raceway, a legendary venue that hosts the 12 Hours of Sebring, one of the oldest and most prestigious endurance races in American motorsports. Unlike much of Florida, the county has stayed refreshingly uncrowded, with wide open roads and little to no traffic, making it easy to get around without the hassle you'd find in busier parts of the state, and it's also well positioned for day trips, sitting about an hour and a half from Orlando, Tampa, and both the Gulf and Atlantic beaches. Despite its small-town feel, Highlands County still has all the major retailers and food chains you'd expect for everyday convenience, including Walmart, The Home Depot, Chick-fil-A, Chipotle and Lowe's. For outdoor lovers, Highlands Hammock State Park, one of Florida's oldest, and Lake June-in-Winter Scrub Preserve, home to the rare Florida scrub-jay, offer plenty to explore.
