117 South St, Melrose, FL 32666

Contingent as of 7-14. Location! A rare gem, this buildable lot with a rural feel is 3 blocks from the heart of historic Melrose! Watch deer. Walk to restaurants, concerts, art galleries, church, grocery and convenience stores. Right around the corner is Mossman Hall community center and the lovely Heritage Park, with its festivals, playground, markets, museum, graceful live oaks and picturesque fountain! Walk to nostaligic Chiappini's for a cold brew, the legendary Blue Water Bay for casual fine dining, and GatorBait, a family sports grill. Roughly 102' by 140', cleared with room for a home, shed and extra parking, there's still trees for privacy and shade. One inch water meter installed, PERC test done for septic, new power pole and transformer on boundary line, and 100 feet of conduit and sweeps are included, saving about $1,000 toward power installation. Recent survey, zoned AG, low taxes, flood plane X. The lot offers sun, shade, palms, natural foliage, plantings and lawn. This .37 acre feels much larger, alongside a large, wooded right of way that can't be built on, providing privacy. Located between SR 21 and FL 26, the county maintained dirt road offers quick access north, south, east and west. Lake Santa Fe boat launches and swim park, the fire station, library, post office and Ace Hardware are all minutes away. To Gainesville, it's 18 miles; Ocala, 40 miles; Jacksonville Coscto, 46 miles; and Crescent Beach, 53 miles. The hard work has been done. Design and create your perfect getaway on your time. Melrose is a charming, quiet town that celebrates holidays, art and music, and honors the fallen. Don't delay! This gem of a lot won't last long!
