Nestled on just under 17 breathtaking acres in Ocklawaha, Florida, this rare private retreat at 495 Fisher Road offers the perfect blend of comfort, nature, and wide-open Florida living. Built in 2004 and thoughtfully enhanced with over $75,000 in improvements, this 3-bedroom plus office, 2-bath home spans just under 2,200 square feet and presents a truly unique opportunity to own acreage that backs directly to the Ocklawaha River. From the moment you arrive, the property welcomes you with a sense of privacy and tranquility. A 6-foot privacy fence along the front of the home, oversized driveway, mature trees, and a peaceful pond positioned at the front of the property create an inviting first impression.

Step outdoors and discover where this property truly shines. Designed for those who appreciate the outdoors and crave space to roam, the land features a beautifully cleared 1–2 acre fenced area, ideal for pets, hobbies, or recreation, while the remaining wooded acreage provides natural privacy and an authentic Old Florida backdrop.

The backyard was designed for making memories, complete with a pergola overlooking the above-ground pool that has been thoughtfully dug in, creating the feel of a private resort tucked into nature. Relax around the fire pit area, enjoy morning coffee while listening to wildlife, or simply take in the peaceful surroundings beneath beautiful mature trees. A shed provides additional storage, and the property’s connection to the Ocklawaha River offers a truly special setting rarely found in today’s market.
