Overview

**RARE 10-ACRE PRIVATE RETREAT, NO HOA, NOT IN A FLOOD ZONE** Step away from the ordinary and into your own piece of Old Florida. Set on nearly 10 acres of fully fenced, wooded land, this property delivers a rare mix of privacy, usable acreage, and solid construction—an opportunity that’s hard to match at this price point in DeSoto County. This move-in-ready 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 1,274 sq ft under air and 2,668 total sq ft under truss. A standout feature is the expansive wrap-around screened porch, creating a true indoor-outdoor living experience and significantly extending the usable space. The heavy lifting has already been done. Recent upgrades include a brand-new roof and insulation (2026), Andersen windows (2025), an upgraded and oversized septic system (2021) ready for future expansion, fully renovated bathrooms, new well equipment, electrical improvements with a 50-amp whole-house generator hookup, updated plumbing, and a propane tankless water heater. The kitchen is equipped with a premium Sub-Zero refrigerator and a separate under-counter freezer. Beyond the home, the property is set up for flexibility and function. Three cabin-style sheds—each with electricity and A/C—offer endless possibilities, along with a 12x32 workshop and a large open area ideal for equipment storage, contractors, recreational use, or even event parking. Portions of the land are already irrigated, and conduit is in place for future electrical expansion. Enjoy true seclusion without sacrificing convenience—just 15 minutes to Arcadia’s shopping and dining, and approximately 25 minutes to the growing amenities and recreation at Babcock Ranch.
