About this home
Owner-designed, permitted & built to Code Plus-Plus structural standards that far
exceed Florida building code — this extraordinary 6BR/4BA equestrian estate on 10.5
protected acres is a rare convergence of fortress-level construction, generational land
value, multiple income streams, and irreplaceable natural surroundings. Whether you are
an equestrian, an investor, a multigenerational family, or someone seeking true self-
sufficiency, this property delivers. It is just looking for a discerning Buyer ready to put in
their personal designer touch.
Nearly 9,000 SF under the roof encompassing 4,884 SF under heat/air: main floor
residence (2,472 SF) with 2 bedrooms and 3 kitchens; private 3BR/1BA upstairs
apartment with soaring vaulted ceilings and full kitchen (1,758 SF); and a studio
apartment (560 SF) perfect for a farm hand or even AIRBNB. Additional space includes a
1,344 SF unfinished first floor (48'x28'), a 1,200 SF 4-car built-in garage and workshop
(30x40), 864 SF of above-garage storage (24'x36'), and a 1,600 SF covered
concrete wrap-around porch (160'x10'). A 2-space carport on the western side easily
converts to 3-space by removing the 36' wood picket rail. Total bedrooms: 2 on the first
floor, 3 on the second, and 1 in the studio — 6 bedrooms total.
Construction upgrades include 2x8 South Yellow Pine pressure-treated exterior framing,
5/8" CDX plywood sheathing, R-26 exterior wall insulation, R-30 between floors, R-38
roof insulation, and R-19 interior wall insulation for exceptional energy efficiency and
sound reduction. 5/8" drywall on all ceilings (1/2" on walls), Class 5 commercial floor
tiles, and DuraRock shower walls with R-30 felt membrane. The commercial-grade 26-
gauge metal roof features a double membrane, continuous ridge vent, and 50-year
asphalt shingles — earning the highest wind mitigation rating available in Florida. The
result: homeowners' insurance of just $3,400/year while neighboring properties pay
$5,000–$9,000 annually. Two-zone Lennox R-454B A/C units replaced August 2025.
400-amp buried electric service with buried lines to both lots.
Truly off-grid capable: private 2HP well with 160-ft depth and 110-ft casing, full 3-stage
Ispring whole-house water treatment system installed November 2025, and gravity flow
septic system — complete self-sufficiency engineered from the ground up.
Fully permitted and registered with Lake County and the State of Florida since 2007, the
equestrian operation has 19 years of continuous boarding history. The permitted 110-
MPH wind load-rated barn has 11 stalls — board at current capacity generating
$2,030/month or scale to full occupancy for $6,050/month gross. No horse trailering
required — direct trail access to Seminole State Forest and Rock Springs Run
Preserve. 7-zone irrigation with 4,000 LF of Schedule 40 PVC, room for a future riding
arena, fully fenced perimeter, and a gated concrete driveway with white board fencing.
Within the Wekiva River Protection Zone (20-acre minimum for any new SFR
development) — no future development possible on any adjacent parcel. Flood Zone X
— no flood insurance required. Agriculture zoning. No HOA. 10.5 rectangular acres.
Minutes to SR-429, Orlando, Mount Dora, and the World Equestrian Center corridor.
Lakes School District. Appraised at $1.18M in March 2026. AS-IS Listing....
