About this home

Build your dream home on this approximately 0.23-acre buildable corner lot with canal frontage leading to Lake Santa Fe, offering a great opportunity to create your ideal North Central Florida retreat. Soil testing has been completed—no mounded septic system required, with only approximately 8 inches of fill needed. Setbacks allow 25 feet from the canal, 15 feet from the road, and a 5-foot variance on the sides, giving you flexibility in your build design. Located on a quiet dirt road, this lot does not currently have power, well, or septic in place, allowing you to design and install utilities to your exact specifications. Enjoy access to Lake Santa Fe, a 5,850-acre spring-fed lake known as one of the most stable in Florida, perfect for fishing, boating, wakeboarding, and kayaking. While the canal water level is currently low due to seasonal conditions, it typically provides direct access to one of the area’s most sought-after recreational lakes. This listing is for Lot 2, with contiguous Lot 1 (also approximately 0.23 acres) available separately or together for a combined total of approximately 0.46 acres. Zoned for residential homes only, with possible owner financing available at 20%+ down; survey on file and available upon request.
