Description of Property

Sustainable. Stylish. Self-sufficient. Welcome to 5117 County Road 316A in Bushnell—a rare 16.8-acre estate that balances self-reliance with Southern hospitality, functionality with finesse. Behind a private electric gate and paved driveway shaded by mature oaks, this hidden gem unfolds into a private, park-like setting rich with both comfort and capability. The main 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features upgraded hurricane-rated windows, a 2020 HVAC system, 30 high-efficiency solar panels, and a matching metal roof and gutter system. Inside, the warm galley-style kitchen offers stainless appliances and a 2020 gas range. The living room is anchored by a large natural Florida limestone fireplace that mirrors the custom glass front entry—a striking architectural detail. Recent additions include a light-filled sunroom and a walk-in pantry that would make any homesteader swoon. On-site accommodations continue with two separate guest or rental-ready living quarters: a spacious 2-bedroom (approximately 540 sqft), 1-bath apartment on the ground floor with granite counters and open-concept design, and an upper-level 1-bedroom, 1-bath apartment (110 sqft)with its own entrance—each equipped with laundry and private access. Recreation and relaxation are everywhere you turn. There are two pickleball courts, a full frisbee golf course that winds through approximately 4,000 planted pines, and an above-ground pool with composite decking and adjacent full bathroom. A paved entertainment courtyard with custom lighting, covered grilling area, and lush upgraded landscaping create an ideal backdrop for hosting. The grounds are fully fenced and meticulously maintained. The estate also boasts serious infrastructure: a 24×40 enclosed pole barn with HVAC, hot water, two roll-up doors, shelving, and 20-amp outlets every 10 feet; a dedicated climate-controlled shed for the solar battery system; a 3-bay concrete equipment barn; an RV pad with 50-amp service and water; a 20kw Generac whole-house generator; a 500-gallon gas tank with pump; and underground electric. A chicken coop with feed room and an orchard of peach, orange, plum, pear, persimmon, and loquat trees add the perfect touch of rural self-sufficiency. The approximately 4,000 planted pines offer not only shade and fresh air but also agricultural tax savings and the potential for future income when harvested. Located just minutes to I-75, under an hour to Tampa or Orlando, and convenient to The Villages, shopping, dining, and services—yet worlds apart in peace, privacy, and possibility. Open and available 7 days a week for private viewing. Very easy to show but by appointment only. Proof of funds required for appointment. Call today. It’s the kind of place where you can host a wedding on Saturday, harvest your orchard on Sunday, and still make it to Tampa by Monday.
