694 Quarter Lane – Forest Retreat in North-Central Florida
Escape to your own private retreat just 35 minutes north of Gainesville. Tucked away on 5 acres in the Ichetucknee Wilderness, this immaculate 2009-built A-frame home blends modern comfort with the natural beauty of Florida’s springs and forests.
Step inside to an inviting open-concept floor plan featuring vaulted ceilings and expansive windows, which hosts 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a large loft that is currently being used as a third bedroom, which overlooks the main living area and offers serene views of the surrounding woods from its private balcony. This home has a bright, airy layout and is perfect for family living or as a private getaway. Looking to be just down the street from the entrance to the Ichetucknee Springs, this is your retreat.
Outdoors, the property is designed for relaxation and adventure. Enjoy evenings under the stars on the outdoor stargazing deck with a gas fire pit, or gather around the traditional fire pit for cozy nights with friends. A wooden deck built to hold a yurt tent adds versatility, and the sale even includes a brand-new regatta canvas yurt tent (ready for assembly).
A unique highlight of this home is its pure spring-fed water system, sourced from an underground head spring—providing endless, crystal-clear Florida spring water right to your tap.
Additional features include:
Fully furnished (option to purchase unfurnished) with beds, dining set, living room furniture, and TV
A charming wooden shed—mini replica of the home—that could be transformed into a tiny house
Gated entry and private road in a high-and-dry location
This property offers more than just a home—it’s a turn-key retreat where you can watch deer, rabbits, and fireflies, walk forest trails, and embrace the serenity of nature while still enjoying modern comforts. Close to High Springs and Gainesville for your shopping and restaurant conveniences. This beautiful retreat has been an AIRBNB before, so you could do it again.
