Equestrian and acreage properties offer a unique lifestyle — wide‑open space, natural beauty, and the freedom to create a home that truly fits your vision. These properties come with considerations that are very different from traditional residential homes, from land layout and fencing to access, zoning, and horse‑friendly features. As someone who personally owns acreage and cares for horses every day, I understand the practical details that matter most. That firsthand experience allows me to guide buyers and sellers with clarity, confidence, and real‑world insight into what makes an acreage or equestrian property truly work.

Roughly 1,000 plants make up current inventory, including ice cream banana trees, citrus, lychees, and ornamental flowers, with virtually anything that thrives in Florida's climate growing here. Irrigation and electric run throughout since 2020, fed by three private wells at 70, 105, and 110 feet, water tested safe, feeding both the home and fields. Fixtures include three greenhouses, six to seven sheds (including the "thunder house"), and two large barns, all powered, plus fertilizer tanks, pumps, and chemical storage.
