3950 Ridgeland Court $179,000

Beautiful 5.57 acre residential lot in the equestrian friendly community of Prairie Creek Park. The parcel sits high and dry, no wetlands, not in a flood zone, mostly scrub with sparse smaller pine and oak trees. If you are looking for privacy and not have neighbors right on top of you, this lot will be ideal. Its on a cul de sac and is between two lots owned by the County, with future-use designated as conservation land. Residents are permitted one horse per acre. Its a wonderful community of ranch style estates, with greenways for horseback riding. The nature enthusiast will enjoy the wildlife and birds, as well as the proximity of Shell Creek Preserve and Prairie Creek Preserve, a boat launch two minutes away, and nearby Peace River. As remote as it feels, the community is just a short drive to supermarkets, restaurants, and retail. I75 is less than ten minutes away, and downtown Punta Gorda a few minutes more. The HOA is only $590 annually. A recent ecological study found no issues with the property. The lot is within the Scrub Jay Conservation area.
