Set on 10.18 acres in Keystone Heights, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath custom Cypress D-log home offers 2,308 square feet of living space with a rare combination of quality craftsmanship, usable acreage, and thoughtfully designed improvements. Built in 2009, the property includes approximately 5 fully fenced and cross-fenced acres ready for horses, livestock, or other agricultural pursuits. With no HOA, owners have the freedom to enjoy the property and its many amenities without additional association restrictions.
Constructed on a reinforced monolithic slab with solid stem walls, the home features 6-inch Cypress logs with gasketed runs and lag bolt reinforcement. Exterior logs and porch areas were freshly stained in January 2025, and a durable metal roof adds long-term value and low-maintenance appeal. Inside, ¾-inch solid Tiger Mahogany flooring spans the main level, while tongue-and-groove knotty pine enhances the upstairs living areas. Slate tile is featured in n the bathrooms, pantry, and laundry room, and a propane fireplace serves as a focal point in the main living space.
The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring a 2024 GE wall oven and microwave combination, GE Profile dishwasher, Whirlpool refrigerator, Jen-Air propane cooktop, commercial ice machine, and a walk-in pantry. Recent infrastructure improvements provide added efficiency and peace of mind, including a SUNPRO/ADT solar panel system installed in 2021 with a 25-year warranty, a Rinnai tankless water heater installed in 2024, a new 2.5-ton first-floor HVAC system installed in 2024, a serviced second-floor HVAC unit, an owned 200-gallon propane tank, a deep 500-foot well with dual supply lines, and a septic system pumped in 2024 with a new commercial sump pump installed.
Outdoor amenities create opportunities for recreation, agriculture, and animal care. A stocked half-acre pond approximately 25 feet deep contains Bluegill, Florida Cracker Bream, and Largemouth Bass, offering fishing just steps from home. Deer and wild turkeys are frequently seen throughout the property, providing a true North Florida setting. A 30-by-30 pole barn connected by breezeway offers flexible space for equipment, storage, or agricultural use, while the expansive carport provides substantial covered parking for vehicles, trailers, boats, or recreational equipment.
A standout feature is the purpose-built dog kennel facility with indoor and outdoor runs, a tiled wash room with raised cast-iron tub, on-demand hot water heater, storage room, freezer, and side-by-side refrigerator. Whether used for personal animals, hobby farming, or other permitted uses, this versatile facility adds functionality rarely found in residential acreage properties.
Conveniently located within driving distance of Gainesville, Jacksonville, and surrounding North Florida communities, this property combines custom log-home craftsmanship, fenced acreage, modern infrastructure, recreational amenities, and specialized improvements in one distinctive rural setting.
