Sustainable. Stylish. Self-sufficient. Welcome to 5117 County Road 316A in Bushnell"”a rare 16.8-acre estate that balances self-reliance with Southern hospitality, functionality with finesse. Behind a private electric gate and paved driveway shaded by mature oaks, this hidden gem unfolds into a private, park-like setting rich with both comfort and capability. The main 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features upgraded hurricane-rated windows, a 2020 HVAC system, 30 high-efficiency solar panels, and a matching metal roof and gutter system. Inside, the warm galley-style kitchen offers stainless appliances and a 2020 gas range.
