Beautiful Home And Acreage Set Deep Within Blackwater Forest

Introducing this rare chance to own a beautiful home on acreage tucked deep within the heart of Florida's Blackwater State Forest. Recognized as one of the most unique privately held tracts in the area, this fantastic property offers self-sustained living, premier hunting and recreation. It presents an exceptional opportunity to begin a successful business venture. The land is gorgeous, featuring mature stands of mostly hardwood timber crossed and intersected by an array of sand-filtered, spring-fed creeks. In fact, the pristine waters that seep from this property form the western head of well-known Sweetwater Creek. Centered at the northernmost end of the property sits the homestead, which overlooks several beautiful acres of open, nicely kept ground. The home is a two-bedroom, two-bath barndominium that's quite comfortable and charming. A nice workshop with a lean-to and storage shed will help to keep equipment organized. There's also an RV hookup with septic and water to accommodate your RV traveling guests. And as a working mini farm within the forest, you'll be privy to what nature has to offer. A high-yield orchard and bountiful garden will help to keep the cupboards full, and of course, the harvest of wild game should be a given with the abundance of deer and turkey that frequent the property. There are several established food plot areas to attract and keep a healthy herd of deer. And if fishing is your thing, a stroll down to one of the four spring-fed ponds should allow for some afternoon fun as well as provide some excellent table fare. There's also enough open pasture area to keep a few horses and other herd animals if you so desire. And for horseback riding enthusiasts, the property offers direct access to miles upon miles of rideable trails that wind through the surrounding forest and many of which are accessible right from the property's gates. Or perhaps you're looking for a new business venture? Owning this land certainly presents a great opportunity in that it's outfitted with a series of state-approved stainless wells. With that said, a new landowner would have the ability to extract substantial volumes of high-quality spring water from the Northwest Florida Sand and Gravel Aquifer. A designated 10-acre portion of the property is commercially zoned to support high-capacity extraction operations. The site is equipped with a series of 6-inch production wells, each delivering a consistent flow rate of approximately 50 gallons per minute. Collectively, the system can sustain an estimated output of up to 100,000 gallons per day, possibly making this a highly viable and scalable resource for commercial development. The land owners will be happy to share the information they've gathered for starting a successful water extraction business. So whether you're looking for laid-back country living, hunting & recreation, or starting a new business, you will find a fantastic opportunity here.
