Tucked along a paved road and framed by a beautiful line of trees, this well-maintained property offers the kind of peaceful country setting that is increasingly hard to find while keeping everyday conveniences close by. On spacious acreage and fully fenced with a front entry gate, the property provides privacy, open space and endless possibilities for enjoying the Florida lifestyle. The home features three bedrooms and two baths with a comfortable great room that flows naturally into the dining area and kitchen. The kitchen includes all appliances and generous counter space, making it easy to prepare meals and gather with family or guests. Front and rear decks extend the living space outdoors and offer ideal spots to relax, entertain or simply enjoy the quiet surroundings. The owner especially loves mornings on the porch with a cup of coffee while listening to the birds and watching nature come alive around the property. Evenings bring spectacular sunset skies that stretch across the horizon, and on clear nights you may even catch rocket launches in the distance. Groveland is known as a dark sky city, and the night skies here are incredible. The land itself is a major highlight. Fully fenced and accessible from a paved road, the property includes a chicken coop and two Conex storage buildings, providing excellent space for hobbies, equipment or future projects. Whether you are looking for a peaceful snowbird retreat, a starter home with room to spread out, or a place to live while planning and building a future custom home, this property offers flexibility and value. Despite the private setting, everyday conveniences are just minutes away. Local shopping, Ace Hardware, and Tractor Supply are about 8-10 minutes from the property, while a larger Publix shopping center, restaurants and additional services are within 15 minutes. Major roads are easily accessible, making travel simple while allowing you to return home to a quiet country setting. The location also makes this an excellent home base for exploring Florida. Roughly in the middle of the state, both the Gulf Coast and Atlantic Coast are about an hour and a half away. Numerous Florida state parks are nearby, offering endless opportunities for recreation, wildlife viewing and outdoor adventures. With its beautiful setting, versatile land and phenomenal price, this amazing property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy space, privacy and the best of Central Florida living.
