Welcome to Long Pond Paradise — 12.10 Acres of Natural Florida.
The largest lot in Long Pond Paradise is now available — over 12 acres of rolling, wooded Florida landscape just west of Chiefland, in a quiet deed-restricted community (homes only, easy one-page covenants, no HOA).
Paved road access from two — possibly three — entry points makes this property both accessible and versatile. Majestic oaks and hardwoods frame open grassy areas across gently rolling terrain, creating a setting that feels private without feeling remote. Wildlife is a regular presence here, and the peaceful surroundings invite the kind of quiet, unhurried life that’s getting harder to find.
The community enjoys deeded easement access to Long Pond. The pond itself is a natural, historic feature of the landscape — fed by the regional water table rather than surface runoff — and like many Florida wetland systems, it responds to long-term rainfall and aquifer cycles. The pond area and on-site ditches are currently dry, as they have been through most of the past two decades, and a survey is recommended to fully define the floodway boundaries for your build plan.
City water is available. Open builder — bring your own plans and timeline.
Minutes from the Suwannee River, natural springs, nature trails, boating and fishing. About an hour to both Gainesville and Ocala. Medical facilities, dining, good schools, and the beloved coastal village of Cedar Key on the Gulf are all within easy reach.
This is old Florida land — patient, beautiful, and waiting for the right owner. Priced well below market for 12+ acres in this area — the estate is motivated and this one won’t last. Located in flood zones AE, X. Buyer is personally responsible for verification of zoning, buildability, ordinances and usage from local county building and zoning departments and/or other governing offices. Survey should be done to satisfy the buyer.[smls]
