It abuts Thomas Creek, the largest tributary of the Nassau River, both integral headwaters to the Timucuan Ecological and Historical Preserve. A nationally protected area recognized for its ecological and cultural significance.
The site includes three existing structures; a house, carport, and utility building that may be replaced or refurbished on their current footprints, with a total allowable footprint not exceeding 3,173 square feet. (See historical aerial for locations.) The entire property is encumbered by an Easement held by the St. Johns River Water Management District, which strictly prohibits development and the removal of trees, ensuring the land remains ecologically intact for generations to come.
Beyond preservation, the property offers the potential for collaboration with local schools and youth organizations for outdoor education, ecological exploration, and nature-based learning, subject to the new owner's discretion.
This is a rare chance to own and steward a piece of Florida's natural heritage within a connected and protected ecological landscape.
