Exceptional opportunity to own nearly eight acres of high and dry land in a growing area of Golden Gate Estates. This unique property features a three-acre freshwater lake, approximately 60 feet deep at the west end and naturally connected to an aquifer. The lake is stocked with Blue Mozambique Tilapia, offering excellent fishing and a peaceful natural setting. A custom home permit has already been approved, and the property is fully prepped for immediate construction if the buyer wishes to use the existing plans—or they may choose to build a design of their own. The current building plans, which are fully permitted and ready to go, include a beautifully designed home with a thoughtful layout, site placement, and architectural renderings. A preview of the plans is included in the listing photos. Infrastructure improvements already in place include electric service with conduit buried three feet deep, two septic tanks with pump station and inspected drain field, and two driveways providing convenient access. The county has indicated the land may be subdivided into three separate parcels, offering long-term flexibility and investment potential. Additional features include a water spigot on the south side, two RV sewer connections with capacity for two more, and a variety of mature tropical fruit trees including mango, papaya, banana, guanabana, and lime. The seller has already completed significant clearing, trimming, and shoreline maintenance, with only light final grading remaining. Located just a few blocks from the proposed Cypress Village development on DeSoto Boulevard, this property offers a rare combination of readiness, privacy, and future growth opportunity—ideal for a private estate, family compound, or custom build project.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
