Overview

Description

Located deep within Florida's Blackwater State Forest, awaits a rare business opportunity presented by way of the pristine Sand & Gravel aquifer of Northwest Florida. Aside from an adjoining 20-acre tract which can be purchased as one with this property, the tract is completely surrounded by national and state forest with Conecuh National forest to the north and more than 180,000 acres of Blackwater state forest encircling the land on all sides. This natural buffer provides a rare level of seclusion and safeguards the property's water resources from surrounding encroachment. The 20-acre tract includes a 10-acre section zoned M1 Restricted Industrial that's specifically designated for commercial bulk or bottled water production. This zoning authorization, combined with significant infrastructure already in place, positions the property as a viable water production site.

Aside from an adjoining 20-acre tract which can be purchased as one with this property, the tract is completely surrounded by national and state forest with Conecuh National forest to the north and more than 180,000 acres of Blackwater state forest encircling the land on all sides. This natural buffer provides a rare level of seclusion and safeguards the property’s water resources from surrounding encroachment. The 20-acre tract includes a 10-acre section zoned M1 Restricted Industrial that’s specifically designated for commercial bulk or bottled water production. This zoning authorization, combined with significant infrastructure already in place, positions the property as a viable water production site. Installed on the land are four state certified six-inch stainless-steel wells, each capable of producing approximately 50 gallons per minute. Together, these wells can sustain a collective output of up to 100,000 gallons per day. Additional wells have been drilled and are ready to be completed with casings and pumps, offering further capacity for expansion. Hydrological testing has been extensive. A 25-year drawdown study confirmed that production levels remain sustainable with negligible impact on the surrounding aquifer. As mentioned, the water is sourced from the Northwest Florida Sand and Gravel Aquifer, a geological formation known for its natural filtration. As a result, past draw-down tests from the wells demonstrate exceptionally low total dissolved solids (TDS) levels, providing a consistently clear and potable supply. While the property’s primary distinction lies in its water resource infrastructure, the property also offers enormous recreational potential, being that it abuts one of the largest continuous ecological communities in the southeast. Outdoor opportunities in the area include hunting, camping, hiking, and wildlife observation. Whitetail deer, turkey, and other native game species are abundant in the region and are supported by the diverse forest habitats and conservation areas found within this unique Forest. Access to the property is through this magnificent Blackwater Forest and provides a liberal 40-foot ingress/egress easement from Cleveland Road. All information deemed reliable but not guaranteed; buyers should verify independently. Buyers are encouraged to perform their own due diligence, including verification of zoning, permits, water rights, and production capacities, to ensure the property meets their intended use. Give us a call today and don’t miss out on this rare opportunity.
