Land - Real Estate in Paisley
Listing Price: $12,500,000
Description of Property
Own a rare piece of Florida wilderness that offers serenity, adventure, and the opportunity to create a legacy for generations to come. Open canvas to build your executive hunting lodge, sportsman’s retreat, or exclusive estate overlooking your own private lake. With an average of 1,000 people moving to Florida every day, the one thing they are not making more of is old Florida land. Imagine arriving via a 1.4-mile nature trail that winds through the Ocala Forest — your private driveway through natural beauty. Once a cattle ranch, this property remains fully fenced with barbed wire. The south/east 10 acres are cross-fenced and improved for livestock. All main corridor roads have been built to accommodate larger vehicles, and ATV trails crisscross the property. Three gates provide access to the adjoining St. Francis OHV area, with the St. Johns River just two miles east. Perfect for agri-tourism or private recreation, the land includes 25 designated campsites and three stocked ponds with largemouth bass. Hunters will appreciate abundant wildlife including wild boar, turkey, deer, and quail — all in complete darkness, ideal for stargazing and potential (IDSR) International Dark Sky qualification. Additional features include a custom-built well house with a new 168-ft deep, 4" galvanized well, Franklin pump, and 5-stage pressurized water softener. The well house is air-conditioned, set on a 6” concrete slab, with 30-amp service, impact glass window, and even a TV setup. Nearby are some of Florida’s most famous springs — Blue Springs, Alexander, Juniper, Rock, and Silver Springs — all within 30 minutes. Surrounded by the 430,000-acre Ocala Forest, enjoy pristine air and water from one of the state’s purest aquifers. This one-of-a-kind property offers unmatched privacy and tranquility, yet remains conveniently located — just 7 miles to the SunRail, 10 miles to the International Speedway, and 20–40 miles to Daytona, Sanford, and Orlando airports. Aviation enthusiasts will appreciate deeded access to the only private runway within the interior of the Ocala Forest.
