About this home
8856 NW 230TH STREET
Own your own slice of Florida paradise on 6.83 acres in Micanopy, where the only neighbors in sight are the local deer and your home has been fully renovated with high-end finishes throughout 2,163 square feet of heated living space. From the moment you turn off the paved road and onto the winding gravel driveway, the curb appeal is immediate—defined by the majestic beauty of a dense canopy that provides a natural barrier from the outside world. The residence greets you with an expansive, screened-in front porch that extends along most of the home’s length, offering a quintessential space to enjoy the outdoors. Step inside to a layout that has been thoughtfully transformed, including a converted garage that now serves as a massive, light-filled living area featuring wide-plank LVP flooring, a new textured ceiling with LED lighting, and updated sliding doors. For the culinary enthusiast, the updated kitchen is a showstopper, boasting gleaming quartz countertops, new cabinetry, under-cabinet lighting, and consistent flooring that flows into the formal dining and living spaces. The interior is further highlighted by a unique primary suite, created by combining two smaller rooms into one grand, functional retreat featuring dual ceiling fans and "his and her" closets with bifold doors. This transition has evolved the home into a spacious two-bed, three-bath layout where every bathroom has been touched, including a fully updated guest bath with a walk-in tile shower and a well-maintained second bath featuring beautiful tile and a modern vanity. Modern mechanical upgrades provide ultimate peace of mind, including a new 5-ton AC unit, a whole-home generator with a propane tank, and recent roofing repairs with new plywood sheeting and fascia boards. The transition to outdoor living is seamless via a dedicated laundry and mudroom—where the washer and dryer convey—leading out to a back patio area designed for tranquility. The backyard is a vast, natural expanse featuring a French drain system to manage runoff and a substantial metal workshop building with a garage door, offering a major benefit for any hobbyist. Located in a quiet, no-HOA community on the Marion County side of Micanopy, you enjoy the benefit of lower property taxes while remaining just minutes from the "town that time forgot." Whether you are wandering through historic Micanopy’s antique shops or making the short drive to Gainesville for premier medical facilities and the University of Florida, this 6.83-acre legacy offers the ultimate balance of secluded homesteading and modern convenience. Schedule your private tour today to experience this one-of-a-kind woodland property in person before it is gone!

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
