Property Description

Private Riverfront Lodge with Nearly ½ Mile of Suwannee River Frontage on 36.9 Acres in Dixie County! A once-in-a-generation opportunity to own approximately 36.9 acres with nearly ½ mile (approximately 2,017 feet) of pristine frontage along the legendary Suwannee River. Offering exceptional privacy, breathtaking natural beauty, and an elevated riverfront lodge, this extraordinary property is ideal for those seeking a private family estate, legacy homestead, or peaceful waterfront retreat. Positioned high above the river, the 2,610-square-foot lodge-style residence features 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms and was thoughtfully designed to embrace the surrounding landscape. Soaring vaulted wood ceilings, expansive windows showcasing panoramic river views, a dramatic stone fireplace, and a spacious wraparound porch create an inviting home that feels like a private treehouse overlooking one of Florida's most beautiful rivers. The property offers a rare combination of mature hardwoods, open meadows, towering shade trees, and a natural sandy beach, creating an unmatched setting for outdoor living, entertaining, fishing, kayaking, boating, wildlife watching, or simply enjoying the peaceful beauty of the Suwannee River. With nearly half a mile of shoreline, there is ample space to create the ultimate family compound while preserving privacy and enjoying uninterrupted river views. Modern conveniences include electric service, well water, septic systems, underground plumbing infrastructure, and fiber optic internet availability, allowing you to enjoy secluded riverfront living without sacrificing connectivity. Located in the heart of Florida's renowned spring region, the property is just minutes from Ginnie Springs, Gilchrist Blue Springs, Poe Springs, and Rock Bluff Springs. Everyday conveniences including grocery stores, restaurants, medical facilities, and banks are approximately ten minutes away, while Gainesville and Lake City are both within approximately forty-five minutes. Adding to the property's unique history, it was formerly Bob's River Place, a family-owned destination that operated for more than 40 years and welcomed visitors from across the country and around the world while earning recognition as one of Florida's hidden gems. The property also includes a Florida Department of Environmental Protection Sovereign Submerged Land Lease covering approximately 22,609 square feet of the Suwannee River. Existing pavilions, gathering areas, and other improvements remain, offering flexibility for future recreational, retreat, hospitality, or event-related uses, subject to applicable approvals and regulations. Whether your vision is creating a private riverfront homestead, establishing a multigenerational family estate, or enjoying one of North Florida's most spectacular waterfront settings, this exceptional property offers an opportunity that is rarely available and difficult to duplicate.
