There are places where the noise falls away and the world slows down, offering a way to breathe deeply. Soft filtered light settles over open fields where deer move gracefully through the grass. Overhead, hawks drift on the wind as a chorus of birds call from the canopy, while below, gopher tortoises quietly share the landscape. This is one of those rare North Central Florida settings, held within the Fort White area. Set on 10.05 fully fenced acres surrounded by horse farms, this land brings together open space, natural beauty, and established improvements. A 1,792 sq ft, 3-bed, 2-bath home rests beneath the trees, joined by a 17x35 pole barn, 12x32 outbuilding, detached 1-car garage, 1 well, 2 septic systems, and existing utilities. For those with vision, this homestead provides an opportunity to reimagine and refresh the existing residence while preserving the character and serenity that define the surroundings. Situated just minutes from the small-town "Old Florida" charm of Fort White and quaint, historic High Springs, this location remains tucked away from the bustle while keeping dining, boutiques, and shopping within reach. You are also just a short drive from some of North Central Florida's most beloved natural destinations, including Ichetucknee Springs, Rum Island, and O'Leno State Park, offering easy access to crystal-clear freshwater springs, winding trails, and outdoor recreation. Yet back home, days can begin with coffee overlooking the tranquil acreage and end beneath a blanket of stars, far removed from city lights. Whether envisioned as a homestead, hobby farm, equestrian property, or a place to simply slow down and reconnect with nature, the true value lies in the acreage, the setting, and the lifestyle it inspires. Come walk the land and experience it in person.
