Fort White, FL 32038(Columbia County)

Of the six 10 acre parcels, three of them back up to Ichetucknee Springs State Park. For those not familiar with the Ichetucknee River, it is mostly state owned on both sides, is crystal clear due to the dozens of springs that feed it, and flows into the skiing, fishing, and boating Santa Fe River not far upstream from the Suwannee River. By car you could drive to the head springs of the Ichetucknee River in five miles. You could drive to Ginnie Springs in sixteen miles. You would be within thirty miles of most of the other famous North Florida springs.

In less than seven miles you would be in downtown Fort White. Within seventeen miles you would be at the major commercial district of Lake City. The town of Alachua is twenty-two miles away and the large university and hospital center of Gainesville is less than thirty-five miles.

You would have small towns, large towns, and cities convenient while still being in the rural scenic country side where you can grow your own food, have farm animals, and make country dreams come true on your own 10 acre forest. While there is plenty of shade from the hundred year old spreading live oak trees, you can still clear out much of your land and put it into pasture, like your neighbors did with theirs. In the hot summer people drive for hours to enjoy the Ichetucknee Springs State Park, which could be at the boundary line of your property.

Modular homes and mobile homes are allowed providing they meet the minimum square footage and are 5 years of age or newer when initially placed on the land.
