Description
Build your dream home on this beautiful .87-acre homesite on Keene Road in Altoona - a peaceful, upland setting with gentle rolling terrain and the kind of natural Florida landscape that's becoming increasingly rare. This area sits along the edge of the Ocala Uplands, giving it soft elevation changes, breezy high ground, and scenic sightlines across pastures, conservation land, and mature stands of longleaf pines and oaks. The drive in feels like a retreat, surrounded by quiet country roads, open fields, and protected natural areas that create an immediate sense of calm. Despite its privacy, the location offers exceptional convenience. You're less than 30 minutes from Apopka and under an hour from Downtown Orlando, while still just minutes from Historic Downtown Eustis and a short drive to the charming, New England-style village of Mount Dora with its waterfront cafés, boutiques, galleries, and year-round festivals. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate being near the Ocala National Forest, where Alexander Springs, Juniper Springs, and miles of hiking and nature trails provide endless opportunities for swimming, kayaking, fishing, birdwatching, and weekend exploration. The homesite itself offers generous space for a custom residence, detached garage, workshop, RV or boat storage, or a future pool and outdoor living design. With nearly an acre to work with, you can orient your home to capture sunrise views, create a long private driveway, or design a backyard oasis framed by natural foliage and gentle elevation. You can build your Custom Home Design with Kevco Builders, Inc. - Lake County's most trusted and award-winning builder with over 40 years of experience. Choose from one of Kevco's thoughtfully designed floor plans or collaborate with their in-house designer to bring your vision to life. Whether your style leans toward modern farmhouse, craftsman, or a fully custom architectural concept, Kevco delivers unmatched craftsmanship, transparent processes, and a reputation built on quality. A rare opportunity to create a private retreat surrounded by nature, yet close to everything that makes Central Florida living exceptional.
