$150,000 4.43 HIGH-AND-DRY ACRES JUST 1.2 MILES FROM THE HEART OF MELROSE, with paved State Road frontage and a delightfully walkable setting beneath mature trees, along with scattered open, tree-free spaces. Perfect for giving a future owner the opportunity to choose a homesite while preserving trees for privacy and a natural buffer. Established homes surround the area, electrical service is nearby, and a private well and septic system would be needed. PUTNAM COUNTY GIS SHOWS NO MAPPED WETLANDS on the parcel, and FEMA mapping places the property in Flood Zone X, which is outside the mapped Special Flood Hazard Area. For buyers searching for high-and-dry vacant land, wooded acreage or a homesite in North Central Florida, those are important considerations. THERE ALWAYS SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING HAPPENING IN MELROSE. This arts-oriented lake community keeps a full calendar of local events, including a weekly farmers market, live music, art walks, concerts, festivals and seasonal gatherings. Melrose also has local restaurants, galleries and a historic museum. Melrose Bay Park and nearby Lake Santa Fe keep swimming, boating, fishing and paddling close to home. It is a small town, but not a place where you have to leave town every time you want something to do. CHOOSING A SMALL TOWN DOES NOT MEAN CHOOSING ISOLATION. Melrose sits at the crossroads of Alachua, Bradford, Clay and Putnam counties, putting a surprising amount of North Florida within a practical driving range. To the west are Gainesville, the University of Florida, UF Health, the Malcom Randall VA Medical Center and Gainesville Regional Airport. Head east toward Palatka and Green Cove Springs for the St. Johns River, or continue toward St. Augustine, Jacksonville, the Atlantic Coast and Jacksonville International Airport. Ocala, High Springs, Alachua, Starke and Keystone Heights add even more choices within the surrounding region. IF YOU ARE RELOCATING FROM A LARGER METROPOLITAN AREA, do not let the mileage on the map fool you. Ten miles where you live now may mean an hour of traffic. Here, many of the longer trips between communities are mostly open-road driving rather than stop-and-go city traffic. That changes what 30, 40 or even 50 miles feels like. Melrose lets you choose acreage and a small-town setting while keeping employment, major medical care, airports, freshwater recreation, the river and the Atlantic Coast within reach. A PROPERTY LIKE THIS IS BEST UNDERSTOOD ON THE GROUND. If the combination of acreage, Melrose and access to the larger North Florida region fits what you have been searching for, come walk the property and see how it feels in person.
