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.

THIS HOME HAS ALSO HAD A PRE LISTING 4 POINT INSPECTION and a CLEAN 4 POINT REPORT IS ATTACHED TO MLS. 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. Sundance Trails residents enjoy a rare combination of freedom to use your property to suit your needs, allows for home-based businesses, house your animals and more with minimal restrictions and an incredibly low HOA fee of $220 per year. If you’ve been searching for a property that offers strength, space, privacy, and a deep connection to nature ... this is it.
