Whether you're dreaming of a private country estate, hobby farm, recreational retreat, hunting property, or long-term land investment, this versatile parcel offers the space and flexibility to bring your vision to life. Currently benefiting from an agricultural classification, the property features approximately 225 feet of an existing chicken barn, providing an excellent starting point for agricultural use, storage, livestock, or future improvements. With road frontage and plenty of open space, there is ample room for farming, horses, outdoor recreation, or creating your own private homestead. Buyer is responsible for verifying all information deemed important, including but not limited to property boundaries, acreage, zoning, future land use, permitted uses, agricultural classification, well, septic, utilities, environmental conditions, flood zone, and any county or state requirements for the buyer's intended use of the property. The property previously had a well and septic system; however, they have not been used for quite some time and buyers should verify their condition or replacement requirements. There is currently no electrical service on the property, offering a blank canvas for buyers to develop the land to suit their specific needs. Conveniently located with easy access to Interstate 10, you'll enjoy peaceful North Florida country living while remaining within reach of the Emerald Coast, Panama City Beach, Tallahassee, and surrounding communities. Large acreage parcels offering this combination of privacy, agricultural potential, and investment opportunity are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Whether you're looking to build now, establish a farm, create a recreational getaway, or invest for the future, this property presents an outstanding opportunity to own a beautiful piece of Florida countryside. Buyer is responsible for verifying all property information, including zoning, permitted uses, dimensions, utilities, well, septic, and future development requirements with Holmes County.
