Welcome to historical Walker Farms, a multigenerational cattle ranch and farm with a current family lineage dating all the way back to the 1800s. Feel free to come visit these rich, well-worked grounds and experience the diversity that an expansive 170-acre working farm with a homestead has to offer. As a new owner, you’ll certainly want to seize the income-producing possibilities that can be found within the 100-plus acres of tillable and grazeable grounds. Whether it be growing and cutting hay off terraced hay fields, nurturing agricultural crops from the ultra-rich soil, or keeping lush pastures for a large herd of livestock, you’ll most assuredly find plenty of great business opportunities here. The entire farm can be easily accessed by way of an internal road and trail system. Approximately 4.5 miles of gated low/ cross fencing, along with cattle shoots and coral, make cattle operations move-in ready. Or perhaps you’d like to take advantage of the recreational opportunities that present themselves in and around the property’s nearly 50 acres of wooded ground. A sportsman will be well pleased to know of the excellent hunting opportunities that exist amongst the property’s fine mix of timber and agricultural ground. In fact, the property’s main timber block sits a mere 1,500 Feet from neighboring Blackwater State Forest which just happens to be the largest state forest in all of Florida. A nice perennial creek also runs through the property, making it an ideal habitat to support an abundance of deer, turkey, dove, quail, and a variety of other animals that call this property home.The Home:Step into southern comfort and charm with this beautifully built custom brick home. Completed in 2020, the four-bedroom and two-bath home provides just over 1,450 square feet of comfortable living space. The central portion of the home features a spacious open floor concept with an eat-in kitchen, dining room, and living room. Or how about relaxing to a tranquil afternoon sitting out front under the home's covered porch area? What a great way to soak up the satisfaction that comes with living on a sprawling country farm.The Barns and Buildings:Being a working farm, the property has a complex of barns to support and stow a variety of equipment. The large main barn was built in 2005 with measurements of 35 feet in width and 75 feet in length with a large 12-foot bay. The barn has a small office with private entry and includes both power and water. The seed barn with sliding barn door is located near the main barn and features a pair of lean-to coverings that extend out to provide coverage for tractors and implements on both the east and west sides. A large pole barn sits adjacent to the seed barn and provides additional parking for larger tractors and equipment. The pole barn has a lower lean-to of which additional implements and accessories can be stowed as well. And no farm would be complete without farm-fresh eggs. A large walk-in chicken coop provides the birds with all they need to thrive and stay protected.
