The best of both town and country living in one place. The tranquility of being in the remote country, yet located just 20 minutes from major shopping, dining, hospital, university… plus conveniences such as Amazon and food deliveries. The beauty of the property is magical. Every window in the home offers views of majestic oaks, roaming deer, humming birds, bunnies… All domesticated pets are welcome here too. Bring your horses, cows, goats, chickens, ducks, and even fish. The home is situated near the center of just over 10 acres with a fenced perimeter and an electric gate. The cathedral ceilings, extra wide walkways, and park-like views give the impression of being at a ranch resort. The concrete floors are stained and sealed offering style with incredible durability. The dogtrot architecture features one bedroom and full bath situated in the east wing near the service entrance, laundry, kitchen and great-room. The remaining four bedrooms and two full baths are all in the west wing of the home giving them privacy from the entertainment area and providing access to enjoy sunsets while relaxing in the primary bathtub. The property and home have been completely renovated, renewed, cleaned up, and continuously improved since 2021. All of the changes were done with the utmost of care and attention to detail. What used to be an open and unfinished little tack-room has been converted into a fully insulated workshop with an attached garage. Practically every inch, inside and out of the house has been made new and everything has been improved. In 2021, the old roof was removed and redone to meet Florida’s latest wind requirements. The new kitchen layout gives plenty of room to move and lots of storage along with two ovens, two fridges, two sinks, and a 36” Italian gas cooktop. The other kitchen improvements include solid wood cabinetry, stone countertops, and high-end appliances including Fulgor Milano, Viking, Bosch, and Samsung. The whole home water system is plumbed through an on-demand Kinetico water softener. There is an added Reverse Osmosis system inside the house for extra pure drinking water and crystal clear ice cubes. The existing in-ground pool has been converted to a saltwater system for a healthier swim experience which is further enhanced by the newly added screen enclosure and covered patio. Internet providers in the neighborhood include Kinetic Fiber which offers speeds up to 2 Gig as well as Spectrum formerly Cox Internet. FYI, the home is back on the market after having been off as pending even though the due diligence process was satisfactorily completed and it appraised above the contracted sales price. Owners were fully moved out and ready to close when they were informed that the buyer could not get the financing needed to purchase the home. Hence this new FSBO listing and the lackluster staging. Current owners are now maintaining two homes and are ready to vacate on short notice.

Built by Henry Ford’s great grandson as his private estate, this extraordinary 67-acre property offers a rare combination of history, privacy, natural beauty, and self-sufficient country living just minutes from Alachua and Gainesville. A gated, lamp-lined drive winds beneath rows of producing pecan trees before arriving at the nearly 6,700-square-foot main residence, surrounded by creeks, ponds, mature woods, and sweeping views in nearly every direction. Inside, the six-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath main home is defined by remarkable scale and craftsmanship, with rare heart-of-pine floors, generous living spaces, a billiards room, bonus room, and walls of windows framing the landscape beyond. The main living room overlooks a waterfall and picturesque swimming pond, while four expansive screened porches create nearly 2,000 additional square feet of outdoor living space. The nearly 1,200-square-foot primary suite feels like a private residence of its own. Three sets of French doors open to a porch overlooking the swimming pond, while a fireplace and sitting area create an intimate retreat. Two enormous custom closets lead to an equally impressive bath with dual water closets, mahogany and marble vanities, and a matching mahogany and marble soaking tub positioned to capture extraordinary views across the creek, pond, and pecan orchard. At the heart of the home, the kitchen pairs custom cherry cabinetry with a Wolf gas range, Sub-Zero refrigeration, warming drawer, two wine chillers, dual sinks, a large island, walk-in pantry, and dedicated coffee bar. Across the swimming pond, a roughly 650-square-foot pool house and expansive decks create another exceptional destination on the property—ideal as a gym, private office, guest retreat, or transformed into a spectacular indoor/outdoor entertaining space. Continue across the bridge and through the trees to discover a secluded two-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath guest house with its own two-stall barn. Elsewhere, an oversized climate-controlled garage, large air-conditioned bunker, and more than 5,000 square feet of covered pole barns provide exceptional space for vehicles, equipment, storage, horses, and recreational toys. The land itself is every bit as compelling as the residences. Acres of producing pecan trees provide agricultural property tax exemptions, while two natural creeks, a stocked fishing pond, open pasture, wooded acreage, and abundant wildlife create a setting that feels worlds away. Extensive solar, buried propane, a multi-thousand-gallon water tank, generator, fuel storage, and a working windmill and pump provide the infrastructure for an almost entirely self-sufficient lifestyle. In total, the estate offers eight bedrooms, seven full and two half baths across multiple structures, with extraordinary flexibility for multigenerational living, guests, recreation, equestrian use, or simply disappearing into your own private piece of Florida. All of this, just 7 minutes from downtown Alachua and approximately 10 minutes from I-75—a legacy estate with a story, scale, and sense of place that would be nearly impossible to recreate today.

Inside, wide-plank white oak engineered hardwood floors carry throughout an exceptionally spacious four-way split floor plan designed to provide both openness and separation.

Instead, the backyard opens to mature trees, granddaddy oaks, and the pool, creating a setting that feels remarkably private while still being part of a gated community.
