This 7.75 acre property with 360+/- feet of frontage on N Pomelo Road consists of a smaller, modernized home surrounded by a 3 acre private tropical botanical garden. There is a garage, carport, workshop, 3 aviaries & a 'cantina.' The rest of the acreage is irrigated farmland leased to a local farmer. The botanical garden has been a continuing project for almost 40 years & contains many, many species of palms, cycads, ficus, bamboo & tropical fruit trees intermingled with flowering trees, vines & shrubs. Birds regularly seen include chachalacas, kiskadees, orioles, green jays, cardinals & multiple species of doves. Night sounds of the great horned owl & pauraque add to the atmosphere of the moonlit yard. The home is a cozy 2 bedroom 1 bath with central air & heat, pine ceilings & some hardwood floors. You'll feel like you're in another world strolling along the pathways or enjoying a cool drink in one of the seating areas. Located in USDA Garden Zone 9b. $250,000.
