APPROXIMATELY 28 ACRES ON JOSHUA CREEK WITH PEACE RIVER ACCESS: This distinctive estate is truly one-of-a-kind with endless possibilities. Affording an extraordinary sanctuary nestled in the heart of nature this captivating parcel is zoned Agricultural (AG-5) and is located directly on Hwy 17. Whether looking to construct a dream residence, utilize as a farm, launch a business or simply have a rural tranquility this tract provides unparalleled opportunity. A haven for nature enthusiasts the property boasts diverse landscapes including nearly 1,220’ of waterfront on Joshua Creek leading to the Peace River 2.25 miles away, a natural spring fed stream, an expansive tranquil lake, acres of cleared pasture and endless trails idyllic for camping or hunting. Have a penchant for adventure? The allure of creek frontage extends well beyond views as this parcel offers both kayaking waterways and the unique thrill of being a mecca for fossil hunting. Showcasing geological wonders waiting to be discovered the creek is situated on a rare section where the land underneath the water is privately owned, allowing the ability to enjoy the waters personally or monetize for use. Soon to be showcased on Fossil Hunters TV there is no area more desirable than this one to prospect. At the heart of the property stands a 30x90 steel building offering both functionality and versatility. Currently framed upstairs for a barn office (bedroom/bathroom/kitchen/living) and downstairs with an expansive open area, two plumbed baths and storage room the building accessible through two 14’ bay doors is an open canvas limited only by imagination. Looking to live off the grid? The barn is equipped with roughly 100 solar panels on the roof that tie into a battery system with 6 inverters creating the equivalent of two 220 amp and a 110 amp service. Need water? Next to the barn is an artesian well that flows with clear natural water. What about waste? There is an existing functional septic system on site tied into the building. Need another building? An additional 50x60 concrete foundation is already on the premises with a 10-course masonry wall in place to build on in addition to a new septic tank (not installed) located behind. For those aspiring to live off the land the property is ready for livestock and farming for a sustainable self-sufficient lifestyle. The livestock complete with their own pen area are optional. Truly with a never-ending scope further opportunity awaits in the onsite asphalt millings and dirt mounds. Wildlife is abundant with wild turkeys, hogs, deer, gator garr, snook, blue crab and tilapia complimented with mature oaks and citrus trees. AG-5 zoning permitted uses include agriculture related activities, bed & breakfast, commercial fisheries, single family home, family day care, forestry, greenhouse, hunting cabin, stabling, agricultural produce, solar power plant, primitive camping and wholesale plant nursery. AG-5 accessory uses include cemeteries, country clubs, guest house, mobile home and tennis courts. Property may be subdivided to allow for multiple single family dwellings (one per 5 acres) or able to be rezoned for commercial use. APPOINTMENT REQUIRED. Do NOT access property without an approved appointment, site is occupied and there is livestock that can escape. Kayaks, canoes, tractor loader w/ bush hog adaptor, generator, fossil gear, inner tubes, picnic tables, swings, benches and a dump trailer are available as a separate complete package.
