3270 Endsley Rd, Brooksville, FL 34604

PRICE REDUCED NOW OFFERED 50,000 BELOW RECENT APPRAISAL. 8 ACRES. NO HOA. NO CDD. AG ZONING. FLOOD ZONE X. This is the kind of property buyers come to Florida hoping to find--and rarely do. Set beneath mature live oaks draped in Spanish moss, this distinctive home sits on 8 private acres in Hernando County, offering something increasingly difficult to find: room for horses, livestock, gardens, farming, recreational space, or simply the freedom to enjoy your land without the restrictions of an HOA or CDD, subject to applicable regulations. And the house is every bit as memorable as the acreage. Florida Cracker-inspired architecture gives the exterior the warmth of a wooded mountain retreat, with board-and-batten styling, a deep covered porch, steep gables, decorative knee braces, cupolas, and a distinctive flared roofline. Step inside and the home makes an entirely different statement. A soaring two-story great room is anchored by a dramatic floor-to-peak brick fireplace with uncommon pierced-brick detailing and a substantial timber mantel. Original exposed beams cross the cathedral ceiling, triangular windows fill the room with natural light, and an open loft with its original banister overlooks the space below. The best parts of this home's character weren't renovated away--they were preserved. The kitchen was thoughtfully updated with white cabinetry, Calacatta-inspired quartz countertops, brushed brass accents, a workstation sink, new appliances, generous seating, and a bright window-lined breakfast nook. The home offers 3 bedrooms and 3 renovated bathrooms, including a first-floor primary suite with a private bath and generous closet space. A second downstairs bedroom and full bath provide flexibility for guests, while an additional entertaining room with mini bar adds another gathering space. Upstairs, the loft leads to a private bedroom and full bath. Outside, a covered patio and expansive rear deck open to acres of green. A three-bay run-in shed is already in place, adding even more versatility for equestrian, agricultural, or recreational use. Just as important is the work already completed. New roof, HVAC, well, iron filtration system, and water softener were completed in 2026. An engineered helical pier foundation support system was installed by LRE Foundation Repair under the direction of a licensed Florida professional engineer, with a signed and sealed completion report confirming conformity with the approved design and 2023 Florida Building Code. The repair was not due to a sinkhole, and the system includes a 75-year transferable warranty at no cost to the future owner. Subterranean and drywood termite prevention treatments were also completed under warranty, along with extensive tree work around the structures. The property is located in Flood Zone X, outside the Special Flood Hazard Area shown on referenced FEMA mapping. Eight acres. Agricultural zoning. No HOA. No CDD. Flood Zone X. Major improvements already completed. And now priced 50,000 below its recent appraisal. No cookie-cutter subdivision. No houses stacked on top of you. No mountain drive required. Just a one-of-a-kind home surrounded by eight acres of Old Florida--and enough land to make it entirely your own.

8 ACRES. OLD FLORIDA. MOUNTAIN-CHALET SOUL. Some homes are defined by their finishes. This one is defined by its architecture, its setting, and the feeling you get when you walk through the door. Everybody says they want to escape to the mountains until it's time for the nine-hour drive. Here, someone created that feeling in Florida instead. Tucked beneath mature live oaks draped in Spanish moss on 8 acres in Hernando County, this distinctive property feels worlds away. Board-and-batten styling, a deep covered porch, steep gables, decorative knee braces, cupolas and a flared roofline give it Florida Cracker-inspired character with the warmth of a wooded mountain retreat. Then you open the front door. A dramatic two-story great room centers around a floor-to-peak brick fireplace. Original exposed beams cross the cathedral ceiling while triangular windows follow the roofline, pouring natural light into the space. An open loft and original banister overlook it all. The beams stayed. The banister stayed. The character stayed. Someone understood you don't renovate the soul out of a house. Around those preserved details, the home has been thoughtfully refreshed. The updated kitchen features white cabinetry, Calacatta-inspired quartz, brushed-brass accents, workstation sink, new appliances, generous seating and a window-lined breakfast nook. The home offers 3 bedrooms and 3 renovated baths. The first-floor primary includes a private bath and generous closet space. Another bedroom and full bath are downstairs, along with an entertaining room and mini bar. Upstairs, the loft leads to another bedroom and full bath, creating a private retreat. Outside, a covered patio and expansive rear deck extend into the landscape. Beyond them? Nothing but green. What you can't see may be just as important. Major 2026 improvements include a NEW ROOF, HVAC, WELL, IRON FILTRATION SYSTEM AND WATER SOFTENER. An engineered helical-pier foundation support system was installed by LRE Foundation Repair under an engineer's direction and carries a 75-year transferable warranty at no cost to the future owner; work was NOT due to sinkhole activity. Subterranean and drywood termite preventive treatments were also completed under warranty, along with extensive tree work. Buy the character. Skip the deferred maintenance. AG agricultural zoning creates possibilities rarely found with a conventional home. A 3-bay run-in shed is already in place, while the acreage provides room for horses, livestock, gardens, farming or simply space between you and the rest of the world, subject to applicable regulations. Located in Flood Zone X, outside the Special Flood Hazard Area shown on referenced FEMA mapping. Traditional rural Florida outside. Dramatic architecture within. Original character preserved. Contemporary renovations bringing it forward. 8 acres of Old Florida surrounding it all. This isn't another Florida house with updated finishes. It's the kind of property you remember you will remember after you leave.
