Property Description

An extraordinary opportunity to own nearly half a mile of pristine Suwannee River frontage across approximately 36.9 acres in North Florida. This remarkable riverfront property offers approximately 2,017 feet of frontage, nearly 1/2 mile, along one of the most beautiful and unspoiled stretches of the Suwannee River, complete with a natural sandy beach and breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape.

Formerly, Bob’s River Place, family owned and operated for over 40 years, drew in hundreds of thousands of customers nationally and internationally and was featured as one of the top "Hidden Gems In Florida."

Set high above the river, the property features a 2,610-square-foot elevated lodge-style, 3 bedroom 4 bath home designed to capture the beauty of its natural surroundings. The residence showcases soaring vaulted wood ceilings, expansive windows framing panoramic river views, and a dramatic stone fireplace that serves as the centerpiece of the main living area.

Inspired by mid-century modern design elements and natural materials, the home blends seamlessly into the landscape and offers a peaceful treehouse-like setting overlooking the river. A spacious wraparound porch provides the perfect place to relax and take in the tranquil scenery.

The property also includes a Florida Department of Environmental Protection Sovereign Submerged Land Lease covering approximately 22,609 square feet of the Suwannee River designated for a commercial swimming area, historically used for river recreation associated with the property.

Additional structures and improvements remain throughout the property including pavilions, gathering areas, and recreational spaces. These areas previously supported outdoor gatherings and events while preserving the natural character of the land.

Utilities include electric service, well water, septic systems, underground plumbing throughout portions of the property, and fiber optic internet availability. The landscape offers a beautiful mix of mature trees, open spaces, and scenic river views with both sun and shade throughout the property.

Located in the heart of Florida’s renowned spring region, the property is within close proximity to Ginnie Springs, Gilchrist Blue Springs, Poe Springs, and Rock Bluff Springs. Everyday conveniences including grocery stores, medical offices, restaurants, and banks are approximately ten minutes away, while Gainesville and Lake City are both within about forty-five minutes.

This unique riverfront property offers exceptional privacy, natural beauty, and a rare opportunity to own a significant stretch of Suwannee River frontage.
