House Description

559 FEET OF ECONFINA CREEK FRONTAGE! Welcome to a rare 37.05-acre property in the heart of Northwest Florida. With approximately 559 feet directly on Econfina Creek, two ponds, a small natural spring flowing through the rear of the property, abundant wildlife and incredible privacy, this is far more than just another tract of land. Recently changed to Agriculture/Silviculture, the property offers an incredible setting to pursue your dream estate, family compound or private recreational retreat. The zoning change opens the door to residential, agricultural and other permitted uses, subject to applicable county requirements and approvals. The location is what truly sets this property apart. Williford Spring is right next door, Blue Spring is a short kayak trip to the north, and Pitt, Sylvan, Gainer and Emerald Springs are all nearby. Launch a kayak or paddleboard, swim in crystal-clear spring-fed water, explore Econfina Creek and spend your days enjoying one of the most beautiful natural areas in Northwest Florida. Surrounded by approximately 65,000 acres of Water Management lands, this is a true sportsman's paradise. Enjoy hiking, hunting, kayaking, fishing, wildlife watching and miles of outdoor recreation practically outside your door. The surrounding network of dirt roads and trails provides even more opportunities to explore this remarkable part of Northwest Florida. The 37.05 acres offer a diverse landscape with beautiful high ground, wooded areas, two ponds and a pristine natural swamp area filled with wildlife. Deer and turkey are frequent visitors, creating the feeling of a private wilderness retreat while still remaining convenient to everyday necessities. Enjoy acreage and seclusion without giving up connectivity. The property is only approximately 1 mile from Hwy 20, and a nearby 5G tower provides excellent cell reception--an unusual advantage for anyone wanting to work remotely while living on a private acreage estate. The property is currently receiving an agricultural tax classification. With the recent land-use/zoning change, substantial acreage, 559 feet of Econfina Creek frontage, multiple water features, immediate proximity to Northwest Florida's incredible springs and just a short drive to Panama City Beach, this property offers a combination that is extremely difficult to duplicate. Build your dream estate, spend your mornings kayaking Econfina Creek, explore the surrounding springs, hike or hunt the surrounding wilderness, watch deer and turkey cross your property, and create something truly special on 37 acres of your own Northwest Florida paradise. WELCOME TO 5593 PORTER POND ROAD -- 37.05 ACRES ON ECONFINA CREEK Opportunities like this are becoming increasingly difficult to find in Northwest Florida. This 37.05-acre property combines approximately 559 feet of Econfina Creek frontage, two ponds, a small natural spring, substantial upland acreage, mature woods, pristine natural areas and exceptional privacy--all in the heart of one of Northwest Florida's most remarkable spring systems. ECONFINA CREEK & THE SPRINGS Approximately 559 feet of the property fronts Econfina Creek, putting kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, swimming and exploring right at your property. The surrounding spring system is one of the defining features of this location. Williford Spring is right next door, while Blue Spring is a short kayak trip to the north. Pitt, Sylvan, Gainer and Emerald Springs are also nearby. This creates an outdoor lifestyle that is difficult to reproduce on ordinary acreage. Launch a kayak, explore the creek and its springs, swim in clear spring-fed water, or simply enjoy having one of Northwest Florida's most beautiful natural resources directly along your property. A SPORTSMAN'S PARADISE The property is surrounded by approximately 65,000 acres of Water Management lands, creating an extraordinary setting for anyone who enjoys the outdoors.

Wildlife is abundant. Deer and turkey are frequent visitors to the property, along with the diverse wildlife associated with Econfina Creek and the surrounding forests, wetlands and spring ecosystem. For the hunter, outdoorsman, kayaker, nature lover or someone simply looking for room to breathe, this is an exceptional location. 37.05 ACRES WITH A DIVERSE LANDSCAPE This is not 37 acres of identical terrain. The property offers a diverse natural landscape that gives it tremendous character. Features include: " Approximately 559 feet of Econfina Creek frontage " 37.05 total acres " Two ponds " Small natural spring flowing through the rear portion of the property " Beautiful upland/high-and-dry areas " Mature wooded areas " Pristine natural swamp and wetland habitat " Abundant deer, turkey and other wildlife " Exceptional privacy " Outstanding recreational potential The pristine lower areas provide wildlife habitat and natural beauty, while the upland portions provide opportunities to create something special. BUILD YOUR NORTHWEST FLORIDA ESTATE The property was recently changed to Agriculture/Silviculture, creating an exciting opportunity for a buyer looking to establish a private estate, family compound, recreational retreat or agricultural property. Rather than purchasing ordinary vacant acreage and trying to create character, the natural features are already here: creek frontage, ponds, a spring, mature woods, wildlife and substantial acreage. Imagine creating a private homesite overlooking your land, having room for barns, workshops or other permitted improvements, and waking up surrounded by nature. Agriculture/Silviculture also provides opportunities for agricultural and other permitted uses, subject to applicable Washington County requirements, permitting and approvals. PRIVACY WITHOUT BEING DISCONNECTED One of the property's most unusual advantages is the combination of privacy and connectivity. The property is approximately one mile from Hwy 20, providing convenient access while allowing you to retreat onto more than 37 acres. A nearby 5G tower provides excellent cellular reception, an important advantage for anyone considering working remotely, operating from their property or simply wanting reliable connectivity while enjoying a rural lifestyle. You can have the acreage, woods, creek and wildlife without feeling completely disconnected from the outside world. AGRICULTURAL TAX CLASSIFICATION The property is currently receiving an agricultural tax classification. Buyers should independently verify continued eligibility, requirements, land-use regulations and intended uses with the appropriate governmental authorities. LOCATION 5593 Porter Pond Road places you in a remarkably natural part of Northwest Florida while remaining within driving distance of Panama City, Panama City Beach and the Gulf Coast. Hwy 20 is approximately one mile away, providing convenient east-west access while the property itself retains the secluded character that makes it special. THE OPPORTUNITY There are plenty of large acreage properties in Northwest Florida. Far fewer combine substantial acreage with direct frontage on Econfina Creek, multiple water features, proximity to numerous natural springs, surrounding public conservation lands, wildlife, recreational opportunities and usable upland acreage. This property could become a private estate, recreational getaway, family retreat, hunting base, agricultural property or long-term legacy holding. Spend the morning kayaking Econfina Creek. Paddle to nearby springs. Hike or hunt the surrounding wilderness. Watch deer and turkey move across your land. Fish, explore, relax around the ponds or simply enjoy the peace and privacy of having more than 37 acres of Northwest Florida to call your own. For
