    SELLER FINANCING AVAILABLE! Discover a rare income-producing opportunity with this sprawling 31-acre agricultural estate in Groveland, comprised of two parcels being bundled together for maximum flexibility (second parcel address 12426 BAY LAKE RD, Groveland, FL 34736 - 12 acres) Seller will consider selling separately. Each parcel functions independently with its own dedicated infrastructure: independent power, water, septic, private ponds, and direct road access. The main parcel features a solid, historic brick home equipped with a durable metal roof and framed by mature, moss-draped oak trees. It provides immediate utility as an income-producing rental, manager's quarters, or a comfortable residence to live in while you build your ultimate dream estate elsewhere on the acreage. The land is zoned Agricultural, fully suitable for horses and livestock, and currently carries an active agriculture tax exemption. Whether you want to maintain the current agricultural business, generate passive rental income, or split the parcels for development, this rare piece of Lake County land offers unparalleled potential.
