Property Description
Set behind a private electric gate on 5 acres, this extraordinary estate offers a rare blend of luxury, self-sufficiency, and peaceful rural living—without sacrificing convenience. Thoughtfully designed for off-grid capability, the property is equipped with a solar grid, backup propane generator, and extensive infrastructure, creating a truly resilient and sustainable retreat. A paved drive leads through the property, complete with an underground sprinkler system and a striking three-tier water fountain, setting the tone for the craftsmanship found throughout. The stately main residence features 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and 2 half baths, complemented by a private mother-in-law suite, expansive barn, and a charming guest house with 350 square feet of heated and cooled space—ideal for visitors, extended family, or a home office. Inside, the home showcases a spacious open floor plan with granite countertops, oak cabinetry, generous walk-in closets, and abundant natural light. A downstairs primary suite offers comfort and privacy, while the upstairs library/office and wet bar create ideal spaces for work and entertaining. Designed for those who love to host or unwind outdoors, the home boasts over 1,500 square feet of open porches plus a 739-square-foot screened porch, perfect for enjoying serene views and quiet moments surrounded by nature. Quality construction and energy efficiency are evident throughout, including Pella energy-efficient windows (2019), masonry block walls, concrete slab foundation, and spray foam insulation for year-round comfort. Additional features include a 200-bottle wine cooler, wired security system with video cameras, 15-KW propane generator with transfer switch, and a separate solar transfer system—providing true peace of mind. Despite its private, pastoral setting, this exceptional property is conveniently located just minutes from I-75, Gainesville, Lake City, and High Springs, offering quick access to shopping, dining, medical facilities, and entertainment. This is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. A rare opportunity to own a legacy property where luxury, sustainability, and tranquility come together in one remarkable estate. **Seller has it listed with the full 66+ acres as well. MLS GC535301.
