Description

Tucked away at the end of a winding drive, just off the beaten path, sits a one-of-a-kind modern farmhouse set on 17.97 acres, with the option to expand up to 102± acres, offering nearly panoramic waterfront views of a stunning private pond. Surrounded by native wildlife and wide-open space, this property delivers the true North Florida ranch lifestyle, where deer roam, otters and turtles gather along the water’s edge, and the occasional bald eagle can be seen overhead. Built in 2024 with a focus on strength, craftsmanship, and timeless design, this property is anything but ordinary. From the moment you step inside, you’ll notice the custom woodwork throughout, thoughtfully curated finishes, and a home designed to not only be beautiful, but built to last. The main home features 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, a warm and inviting open-concept layout, granite countertops, a walk-in pantry, 16 ft ceilings in living room, and four split units for efficient comfort. A full wall of French doors draws your eye straight to the back porch, overlooking the pond, where this property truly comes to life. And the porch…well, it’s the kind you dream about. Spanning the entire back of the home, this oversized covered space is perfectly positioned to take in the peaceful water views, watch wildlife wander through the property, and slow down in a way that only Steinhatchee can offer. Morning coffee, evening sunsets, and everything in between, it’s all better here. Just off the carport, you’ll find a private guest suite complete with a spacious bedroom, full bathroom, and laundry area, ideal for visitors or easily converted into a full mother-in-law apartment. The oversized covered parking area doubles as an entertainer’s space, featuring a custom bar setup, ample storage, and plenty of room for vehicles, boats, and toys. And while this property offers complete privacy and room to roam, you’re still just a short drive from the Gulf, giving you quick access to world-class fishing, scalloping, and days spent on the water. It’s the best of both worlds: peaceful land and coastal living, all in one. Whether you’re envisioning a private retreat, hunting lodge, or even a future event venue, this property offers the rare combination of privacy, functionality, and natural beauty. A true North Florida escape, where there’s room to roam, space to breathe, and life moves just a little slower. And truthfully, this is only the beginning. For those looking to expand, the additional acreage opens the door to endless possibilities. With the full 102± acre package listed at $1,600,000, you’ll find multiple homesite options, perfect for creating a family compound if desired, along with a 40x60 3-bay workshop with 24x12 enclosed tool room, overlooking the pond, 30X48 pole barn with RV hookup, established food plots, and prime hunting land. With roads carved throughout the property, access is no issue, making it a true outdoorsman’s paradise with space to explore, hunt, and enjoy. There are approximately 3 +/- of groomed trails throughout the property. The property is next to a large wildlife management area, ensuring that you will keep the peace and privacy for years to come. This property is being offered with flexibility in mind, with multiple purchase options available. Buyers have the opportunity to secure the home with a smaller acreage footprint or expand to include additional land tailored to fit their vision. Must put atleast 30% down for owner financing.
