Property Overview
This 10.01-acre farm is designed for homesteading, small-scale agriculture, and events. The property has an agricultural exemption for property taxes due to commercial blueberry production and has been used as a destination for U-pick fruit, events, and spring-fed pond ecotourism. The landscape includes a spring-fed pond over 1 acre in size and 30'+ deep, wooded trails, and southern live oak trees on the waterfront. The land is well-drained, and access roads are paved and do not flood. A pole barn measuring 30’x48' with gutters is present, along with an attached lean-to measuring 14’x48' that is insulated and finished, with power, plumbing, toilet, shower, mini-split climate control, and a covered porch. Windstream Wifi and phone are available. An adjacent bathhouse includes toilets, showers, and a covered kitchen space. There is one waterfront view site for a Tiny House on Wheels (THOW), Manufactured Home (MH), or Recreational Vehicle (RV) with water, electric, and septic hookups, as well as a tent platform. The property features four wells, four septic systems, and a drainfield at the barn, along with hydrants and underground water lines. There are two Clay Electric pedestals and buried power lines, plus one primitive hand-dug well. Additional structures include a greenhouse (30x50), a nursery yard, a tool shed (12x24), and two well house sheds. Income-producing crops include organic rabbiteye blueberry plants with drip tape irrigation (approximately 800: 300 brightwell, 300 premier, 100 trublue, 100 tift blue) and organic muscadine grapes (10 each supreme, fry, southern home) with irrigation. Homestead perennial plantings include Bartlett pear, Florida peaches, celeste figs, ‘verns’ brown turkey figs, Hamlin orange citrus, Ponkan mandarin citrus, mulberry, avocado, and jiro persimmon. Landscape plantings include Autumn gold ginkgo, Greenleaf American holly, Sweet bay magnolia, feijoa, fakahatchee grass, lemongrass, red buckeye, bamboo varieties, chinquapin chestnut, gingers, and azalea.
