Rare ''Old Florida'' 12.8-Acre Homestead - Shaded by Massive Live Oaks with Private Pond
Located just minutes away from the Eastern Hernando-Pasco County line, this 12.8-acre agriculturally zoned property offers a rare blend of natural beauty, privacy, and potential. What truly sets it apart is the remarkable canopy of massive live oak trees—many estimated to be 80 to 100 years old—spreading across much of the land. These iconic trees lend a timeless character and a sense of heritage that's increasingly difficult to find in this part of Florida.
The land features a quaint pond that attracts the local wildlife and is ideal for simply enjoying the view. Whether you're envisioning a private estate, a personal farm, or a future custom build with lots of acreage, the setting is both inspiring and practical.
A 1940s-era home still stands on the property and will likely require either a substantial renovation or full replacement. Two older outbuildings also remain, offering potential utility as barns or storage spaces with some work. A functioning well currently supplies water to the home, while the septic system will likely need repair or replacement.
Located just minutes from the Hernando-Pasco border, this property offers both privacy and proximity—rural peace with convenient access to growth corridors.
With its stunning tree canopy, pond, and flexible land use, this is more than just acreage—it's a rare opportunity to own a piece of Florida's natural heritage. This opportunity won't last long.
