OWNER FINANCING AVAILABLE! (shorter term) This breathtaking 5-acre legacy ranch, surrounded on three sides by the historic Bellamy family’s expansive property, is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to own a piece of Florida’s cherished past. Located in the heart of Darby Florida, this property features two charming “cracker” style homes, incredible amenities, and endless possibilities for its future. The main home is a beautifully designed 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath residence offering 1,350 sq. ft. of living space. Its expansive wraparound porch feels like an additional living area, perfect for relaxing mornings or entertaining guests while soaking in stunning sunrise views over the pastures. The second home, a cozy 1-bedroom, 1-bath cottage with 320 sq. ft. of living space, boasts its own large front porch overlooking the rolling family pastures, making it an ideal space for short-term rentals, a weekend getaway, or additional income-producing potential. The property’s amenities further enhance its appeal, with a massive open-air barn (80x80) that could easily transform into an enchanting wedding or event venue, offering rustic charm and a spacious layout. There is also a well-equipped workshop (40x60) with power and water, accompanied by attached storage, providing versatility for projects or business operations. The fully perimeter-fenced property includes several fenced pastures, making it ideal for livestock, equestrian use, or agricultural pursuits. With its stunning natural beauty, rich history, and unique setting, this ranch presents endless opportunities. It could serve as a multi-generational homestead, a serene retreat, a short-term rental destination, or a thriving event venue. The possibilities are as limitless as the views from the charming porches that grace each home. The sellers are also offering the unique opportunity to purchase the property’s stunning collection of antiques and charming collectibles outside of the real estate transaction. These carefully curated pieces, full of history and character, perfectly complement the ranch’s timeless appeal and would provide a truly turn-key experience for the next owner. New well in 2019
