Virtually Staged. *LISTED COMMERICAL AS WELL A4702456* Welcome to 8146 Tropicaire Blvd, 13 recently surveyed acres of flourishing, working agricultural land in North Port, spanning three parcels, all zoned AG and free of easements or deed restrictions. North Port is among the fastest growing cities in the nation, and producing land like this grows rarer every month. Greenhouses were built new in 2025 (30x100 ft), with a shade house added in 2022, established nursery rows, and fruit trees full of life from years of dedication. Roughly 1,000 plants make up current inventory, including ice cream banana trees, citrus, lychees, and ornamental flowers, with virtually anything that thrives in Florida's climate growing here. Irrigation and electric run throughout since 2020, fed by three private wells at 70, 105, and 110 feet, water tested safe, feeding both the home and fields. Fixtures include three greenhouses, six to seven sheds (including the "thunder house"), and two large barns, all powered, plus fertilizer tanks, pumps, and chemical storage. About 3 acres of pasture are partially irrigated. This sale includes a full working nursery and farm business, thirty years in the making: inventory, business name, customer list and phone number, and supplier relationships, all included with no contracts. The property carries agricultural and greenbelt ag exemption status, and the owner has participated in USDA and cost share programs, including NRCS programs for bird nesting boxes. Machinery may be available to the buyer, and the property holds full USDA certification as a working farm, nursery, and landscaping business. Then there is the home, a showpiece in its own right, set back from roughly 300 feet of road frontage along Tropicaire Blvd. Custom built and finished in 2025, it features block and stucco walls, a standing seam metal roof, impact resistant windows and doors, spray foam insulation, a raised stem wall foundation, engineered hardwood floors, and a wrap-around covered porch. Granite countertops anchor the kitchen and every bathroom, with walk-in showers throughout and a clawfoot tub in one bath. Storage is generous, and the laundry room includes a dedicated dog wash shower. The home offers 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, plus a half bath in the garage, with HVAC and water heater new in 2025. All renovations were completed brand new in 2025, fully permitted. The garage is an imposing 40x45 feet with three bays and its own half bath. Plumbing and electrical are already in place for an outdoor kitchen and pool. The home is served by private well and septic, FPL electric, and Frontier internet. The property sits in Flood Zone X with no history of flooding, and includes roof-to-wall connections and a secondary water barrier for storm resilience. Additional features include engineered fill, complete electrical service, water storage tanks and ponds on site, and irrigation permits already in place. The land is fully fenced and zoned for horses, overlooks a tranquil pond, and sits minutes from I-75 and the growing Sarasota Memorial Hospital campus. It borders the T. Mabry Carlton Reserve, over 1,000 acres of horse trails, and the pole barn could convert to horse stalls. A chicken coop and pig pens support organic, self-sustaining living. Three parcels, sold together, zoned AG, with no HOA and no deed restrictions. Paid for outright with no loans or liens, this is a true legacy of self-reliance, built from the ground up.
