The country around Alachua is a mix of pasture, hardwood hammock and pine, and San Felasco Hammock Preserve State Park protects a large block of it on the Gainesville side. That setting is why acreage properties are a real part of this market rather than an exception, and why many of them carry barns, fencing or paddocks left from earlier agricultural use. Parcels run from a clean five acres to considerably more. Bosshardt Realty Services handles these properties across Alachua County. Compare related inventory on Alachua horse property.
