About 8800 S Steed Terrace
Under contract-accepting backup offers. Discover a truly one-of-a-kind opportunity to own 6.04 acres of breathtaking natural beauty in the charming town of Floral City, Florida. Formerly a rock quarry, this remarkable property has been transformed into a private nature sanctuary featuring dramatic rock formations, winding walking paths, peaceful picnic areas, and stunning scenery at every turn.
At the heart of the property is a crystal-clear, spring-fed pond directly connected to the aquifer, with depths ranging from approximately 6 to 18 feet. The pond is teeming with bass, crappie, bluegill, catfish, and tilapia, creating an exceptional setting for fishing, relaxation, and enjoying the outdoors. Surrounded by more than 20 species of native Florida trees, the land provides a haven for abundant wildlife, including deer, birds, and countless other native species.
Designed with both beauty and functionality in mind, the property has been expertly graded for optimal drainage. The quarry serves as a drainage retention area capable of holding approximately 30 million gallons of water, while the main pond is protected by industrial-grade, water-permeable silt-control fabric. Per the seller, the property has remained high and dry and has never flooded.
Whether you're envisioning a custom estate, private retreat, family compound, or weekend getaway, this unique property offers endless possibilities. For those seeking even more space and privacy, the adjacent 5.39-acre parcel is also available for purchase.
