Property Description

Welcome to a truly One Of A Kind estate in the highly sought-after Sundance Community where privacy, resilience, and natural beauty come together on over 5 serene acres. This 3 bedroom, 3 bath home is not just a residence, it's a fortress built for peace of mind. Constructed using the IMF Styrofoam block system, the home boasts an impressive 200 mph wind resistance and an R-56 insulation rating, delivering exceptional durability and energy efficiency. Reinforced with engineered I-beam trusses, enhanced load-bearing support, and topped with a standing V-seam metal roof, this house was built to stand strong, making it feel like your own family hurricane shelter. As you approach, you will immediately notice the sense of seclusion. The property welcomes you into a peaceful, private retreat, securing you in as you cross a private bridge. Lush bamboo gardens and a rich variety of subtropical plants create a setting that feels like a botanical escape with walking paths and wooden foot bridges. Adding to the tranquility, a river winds through the wetlands portion of the land, visible through a backdrop of mature forest. This natural barrier not only enhances the beauty but also provides exceptional privacy from neighboring areas. A natural earth pond rests beside the 250 foot long private driveway. It welcomes in a delightful variety of native owls, hawks, deer, and other habitat; all adding to the charm that living on untouched 'Old Florida property offers. The unique blend of uplands and wetlands creates a peaceful, campground like atmosphere across different areas of the property, an uncommon serenity that's hard to replicate. Functionality meets flexibility throughout. A large portion of the acreage is already cleared and usable, featuring multiple sheds, a 4-car carport, and abundant storage options. The attached oversized 3.5 car garage, also constructed from the IMF Block, is built extra deep, offering valuable flex space perfect for a home business, workshop, craft area, or future climate controlled expansion. Outdoor living is just as impressive, with two screened lanais, an open-air balcony, and an extended patio space designed for relaxation, entertaining, and soaking in the surrounding nature. It's the kind of property where every day feels like a getaway. Located within Sundance, residents enjoy a rare combination of freedom and amenities. The community allows for home-based businesses and horses, and offers access to a marina and stables all with minimal restrictions and an incredibly low HOA fee of $220 per year.
