About this home
A rare opportunity in Brooksville: 11.2± agriculturally zoned acres with two separate residences, each with its own address, newer roof, newer HVAC system, and independent power service. Whether the vision is multigenerational living, an income-producing property, equestrian use, homesteading, or a private family compound, this property offers the infrastructure, land, and flexibility to make it happen. 255 BENES RD The larger residence offers just over 1,300 living square feet with three bedrooms and one bathroom and has been thoughtfully remodeled while retaining the charm and character of the original home. An inviting open front porch sets the tone, while the interior features an open floor plan, updated finishes, and a beautiful sunroom overlooking the property. The home also features a newer roof and newer HVAC system, providing important updates for comfort and insurability. 249 BENES RD The second residence offers just over 1,100 living square feet with one and a half bathrooms and provides another completely independent living space. This home has also been remodeled and updated while maintaining its original character. Major improvements include a newer roof, newer HVAC system, and substantial electrical updating—another important consideration for insurance and long-term ownership. THE LAND The 11.2± acres are agriculturally zoned and offer beautiful improved pastures, multiple potential build sites for barns and additional agricultural improvements, stunning grandfather oaks, and healthy, dark, rich soil. There is room here for horses, livestock, gardens, additional agricultural infrastructure, or simply the privacy and freedom that comes with owning usable acreage. The property also features two wells, with each residence operating on a separate power service, adding another level of independence and flexibility between the two homes. Additional infrastructure includes an RV hookup with septic and well access, plus two outdoor showers with hot water—valuable amenities for guests, RV use, equestrian activities, farm operations, or future expansion. Multiple existing outbuildings add even more usability, including a pole barn for storage and a greenhouse, giving the next owner a strong foundation for agricultural, equestrian, or homesteading pursuits. For the horse enthusiast, one of the property's standout features is direct riding access to the Masaryktown trail system, allowing you to saddle up and ride without having to trailer out. Two residences. Two addresses. Two wells. Separate power. Improved pasture. Agricultural zoning. Existing infrastructure. Direct trail access. This is the kind of property that can serve you today while leaving plenty of room for what comes next.
