Overview
Agricultural Land with Aquaculture Farm
This 19.58-acre property, zoned A/A Agriculture, offers a country lifestyle with privacy and functionality. The land is fully fenced and located in Flood Zone X, eliminating the need for flood insurance. It is suited for farming, ranching, homesteading, or agricultural investment, featuring an established, income-producing aquaculture business. The property benefits from current agricultural and homestead exemptions, resulting in low property taxes. The rear 10 acres include a residence, open pasture, wooded areas, ponds, and a creek. Mature oak and mango trees, tropical landscaping, clumping bamboo, a fire pit, an outdoor swing, and a cleared green space are present. A fenced 4-acre paddock is adjacent to the residence. Farm animals and horses are allowed, making it suitable for a hobby farm, 4H projects, or equestrian use. The property includes a fully operational aquaculture farm with 97 outdoor fish breeding ponds, two 4" wells and one 6" well, three greenhouses, a concrete block utility building with a metal roof, feed shed, workshop, propane storage tank, and a 50kW diesel-powered backup generator. The 6" well and a compressor supply air and supplemental water to all ponds. The greenhouses and utility building feature a water purification and flow-through recirculation system for the production of over 50 varieties of tropical fish. All water is degassed and oxygenated before entering the buildings, and aeration is supplied. Drainage systems exceed Best Management Practices. A 2,280 sq. ft. manufactured home (2002 Palm Harbor) includes 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, multiple living and dining areas, a separate office/den, and a wood-burning fireplace. Recent updates include a new kitchen (2024) with quartz countertops and a movable island, a new roof and gutters (2023), and a 5-ton high-efficiency HVAC system still under warranty. The home has a 4" well with a full water purification system, water softener, two septics, a double carport, and utility buildings.
