PRICE REDUCTION! If privacy, land, low taxes, a friendly climate, peace & quiet, hunting & fishing along with excellent proximity to prime educational and medical facilities are what you are looking for, then this 130-acre north central Florida property is calling your name! Only 20 minutes from I-75, this unique property features a spring formation, three scenic swimming and fishing lakes, plenty of woods for hunting deer, hogs & turkey, and a beautifully maintained homestead. Its exceptional location places it conveniently between Gainesville, the University of Florida, and the Ocala World Equestrian Center. The current land use consists of 30 acres of planted pine, 6 acres of horse pasture, 2.4 acres of homestead plus additional 5 acre building envelope, and the balance used for hunting and fishing. Surrounded by vast farming lands, the property offers an extraordinary setting, a recreational retreat for nature and hunting enthusiasts, and a retreat for devoted Gator fans. The restored 1905 home became the homestead in 1995 when it was moved to its current location from downtown Williston where it was reassembled, expanded, and customized. Founded by the present owner, the local newspaper operated temporarily out of the home's kitchen. The 3268 sq. ft. home, with open porch and wooden fence with enclosed raised garden area, faces an open meadow with adjacent shaded goldfish pond and outdoor relaxation area. The meadow perimeter includes a 20'X20' wooden tractor storage barn, 3 unused livestock shelters for goats, and a 4'X5' firewood shed. The property is irregular in shape, is protected by a conservation easement and may not be subdivided. Current boundary survey. PRICE IS FIRM. Furnishings are negotiable.
