Nutmeg Hollow Farm is 126 acres of southern charm and the real value of this property is its beauty! A North-Central Florida private paradise within minutes of Gainesville, the University of Florida, and Shands Hospital. This gorgeous, custom home includes a 765 ft2 guest residence, saltwater pool, full perimeter fencing encompassing six (6) pastures amidst sprawling live oaks, a raised-bed garden, a variety of fruit trees and a barn with two (2) stalls, a tool room and a tack and feed room. The farm is a great place to raise cattle and has a cow pen and squeeze chute. The main residence is designed with entertainment in mind; offering 2574 ft2 of elegance and style across a split floor plan with three (3) bedrooms, two (2) full bathrooms, and one (1) half bathroom. Lush landscapes adorn the home’s exterior and entrance. The Great Room has Cathedral ceilings, acacia wood floors, stone-accented, gas fireplace, built-in bookshelves, and cabinetry, culminated by French doors leading to the lanai. An open kitchen/living combination offers the perfect guest-hosting haven. The spacious kitchen has an oversized, L-shaped breakfast bar with granite countertops, 42” wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a tray ceiling with recessed lighting, and a walk-in pantry. The laundry room is reinforced as a safe room for storms, and it also features wood cabinetry, a laundry tub, and storage. The large, master bedroom features a sitting area enabling relaxing evening reads. An organizational, walk-in closet system keeps your clothes.  The master bathroom has dual sinks, a walk-in shower with dual shower heads, and a water closet. The master bath also features an outdoor shower. Leading outside from the main living area is a large screen-enclosed lanai complete with entertainment amenities including a hot tub, outdoor kitchen, wood-burning fireplace where you can enjoy peaceful water views, garden, or host lively entertainment like Gator game day or relax to music through outdoor speakers. The raised bed garden is large enough to grow a variety of vegetables and herbs providing you that fresh, farm-to-table cooking opportunity! Leaving the lanai is a path to the guest home and along the way is an open, saltwater pool that may be heated or cooled to your desired temperature. The pool features a safety alarm and a full-home generator that offers the security of backup power and a smart pump to provide water in case the electricity goes out. The guest cottage has its own address and is perfect for family, friends, or Airbnb. At 765 ft2, the open floor plan encompasses a charming living space with a bedroom, bathroom, full kitchen, a study off the living room, an enclosed screen porch, & a carport. The farm exhibits a breath-taking panorama. Stroll under majestic live oaks, survey beautiful ponds for fish and wildlife or pick olives, pears, tangerines, lemons, oranges, figs, bananas, peaches, grapefruits, pecans, or loquats from a very productive tree.  The perimeter of the property is fenced, with six cross-fenced pastures and two paddocks, all with piped water access. Both the house & cottage have water softener systems and irrigation systems which also service the raised bed garden. The front entry has power to the road with in-ground piping ready for a custom gate installation. There are 3 wells and 3 electric services on the property. All but approximately two (2) acres are classified under agricultural exemption.
