This 36-acre property on Lake Hires offers a blend of privacy and natural beauty. The estate features pastures, woodlands, and over 1,100 feet of riverfront shoreline on the private lake. A canopy of oaks and pines creates a shaded retreat, and the property serves as a wildlife sanctuary. Walking and horseback trails wind through the property, leading to a duck pond, wildflower gardens, and a young, established food forest with fruit-producing trees. There is also a new apiary for honey enthusiasts and a wildflower garden. The entire property is all-natural and chemical-free. It includes an industrial-sized 30’ x 56’ greenhouse with new coverings, electrical, lighting, and irrigation, suitable for a plant nursery or sustainable farming. Custom-built Key West Village-style chicken coops, goat shelters, and self-filling water troughs are present. A large 22’ x 48’ pole barn with a fully permitted slab foundation, a walk-in refrigerator, work shed, and food storage shed are ideal for homesteading or agribusiness. The property is fully fenced with an underground electric dog fence and two remote gates. The Florida farmhouse features local knotty and pecky cypress walls and ceilings.
