The story
Escape the noise and rediscover what home is meant to feel like. Tucked away on just over 20 picturesque acres, this exceptional estate offers the kind of peace that's becoming harder and harder to find. Picture yourself on the expansive Southern front porch, coffee in hand, gently swaying on the porch swing as a cool breeze rolls across the pasture. Watch cows graze, donkeys wander, and the sun rise over your own slice of North Florida paradise. It's a setting that instantly slows life down. With more than 4,000 square feet under roof, this home provides the perfect balance of warmth, comfort, and space for gathering. The thoughtfully designed floor plan was made for both everyday living and entertaining, centered around a stunning chef's kitchen featuring a large center island, breakfast bar, double ovens, gas range, abundant cabinetry, and generous counter space. The spacious living room is anchored by a beautiful fireplace that can be enjoyed as either gas or wood burning, creating an inviting place to gather year-round. The luxurious owner's suite offers a private retreat complete with a spa-inspired bath featuring a Jacuzzi tub, separate shower, and plenty of space to unwind. Two additional bedrooms and four full bathrooms provide comfort and flexibility for family and guests. Outside, the amenities continue with a two-car garage complete with its own full bathroom, an enormous concrete-floor pole barn perfect for equipment, hobbies, or storage, and a charming chicken coop ready for your own little homestead. While you'll feel a world away from the hustle and bustle, you're still just a short drive to Starke for shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences. This isn't simply a beautiful home. It's a place where mornings begin with birdsong, evenings end with sunsets over the pasture, and every day feels just a little more peaceful than the last.
