Pool-Walkabout on 9 Parklike Private acres

Summary:

Escape to a private North Florida retreat where towering live oaks, winding canopy roads, and nearly 10 acres of park-like beauty create an experience that feels worlds away — while still being just minutes from the best of Tallahassee.



Tucked deep behind a graceful circular drive in one of Tallahassee’s most prestigious canopy road corridors, this secluded estate blends timeless Southern character with the comfort and convenience of a luxury resort-style stay. Surrounded by estate properties and untouched natural beauty, the setting is peaceful, quiet, and unforgettable.



Wake up to birdsong beneath moss-draped oaks. Sip coffee overlooking rolling lawns, wildflower meadows, and a tranquil lily-pad pond filled with native wildlife and butterflies. Spend your afternoons by the resort-style pool, unwind beneath the pergola at sunset, or stroll the scenic 5K walking trail just outside the property entrance along Centerville Conservation and Pisgah Road.



Designed for gathering, relaxing, and reconnecting, the home offers warm, inviting spaces ideal for families, executive retreats, remote work stays, reunions, or extended escapes. Expansive porches and elevated outdoor living areas create seamless indoor-outdoor living with breathtaking long-range views across the grounds.



The home has been extensively updated throughout with modern luxury features including:

• Heated resort-style pool

• Two new HVAC systems with UV air purification

• Rinnai tankless water heater

• 22KW whole-house generator

• Trex decking and upgraded outdoor living spaces

• Energy-efficient PGT & Pella windows

• Himalayan granite countertops

• Fully updated flooring and baths

• Soft-close cabinetry throughout



The property’s nearly 10 acres provide a rare sense of freedom and flexibility — offering space to explore, relax, entertain, and experience the outdoors in complete privacy.



Perfectly located:

• ~12 scenic miles to Downtown Tallahassee & the Capitol

• Minutes to Publix, Bannerman Crossing, restaurants, and shopping

• Convenient to Chiles High School, Roberts Elementary, and Montford Middle

• Direct access to one of Tallahassee’s most iconic canopy road corridors

• Paved 5K walking trail directly in front of the property



Whether you are seeking a peaceful nature retreat, a luxury family gathering destination, a long-term executive stay, or simply a place to slow down and breathe, this one-of-a-kind Tallahassee estate delivers an experience rarely found anywhere in North Florida.



More than just a home — this is a destination designed to be felt, remembered, and experienced



The Space:

Plan a reunion, Wedding Parties or Gatherings and enjoy the privacy on over 9 acres with a pool, pasture, pond, forever views and room to bring the whole family and friends. This home feels like you are so far away yet only 4 miles to Publix and Bannerman Crossings and a beautiful ride down Centerville to downtown or FSU and FAMU in about 25 minutes. Early Morning Check-in and Noon Check out included here.



Guest Access:

Circular drive in front. Best practice is to pull off the driveway for others to roll in and park



The Neighborhood:

This is Exurbia. The border line between rural and urban fringe. We are only 4 miles from Publix and Bannerman crossings, 15 minutes to a hospital down Centerville Road, can drive to Georgia and Thomasville on a dirt road that crosses the state line--walk a paved 5K across the street alongside Centerville and Pisgah Church. It is very quiet here.



Getting Around:

Only about 4 miles to Publix and Bannerman Crossings



Other Things to Note:

Tents, Tables and chairs are shown but not included in the stay-They need to be rented from a third party based on the party size. Heated Pool Option based on Length of stay and subject to temperatures. Can quote for you and add this onto the reservation

Fun Family Weekend!!

We had a fun family get together at this Tallahassee retreat. Steve was a great host, promptly responding to our inquiries and accommodating our group’s requests. We hosted a dinner for 15 people easily in the large well appointed kitchen and dining area and accommodated five different families for the weekend. The property was so beautiful and peaceful, we would highly recommend!!

Graduation Celebration

I booked the property for my family to stay at because I did not have enough room at my home. The house was amazing as well as the backyard pool. The scenery is wonderful with the pond. Everything is so nice and peaceful. Steve was a fabulous host. He is prompt with communication and very accommodating. My family enjoyed themselves so much that they would like to book this vacation home again! If you're thinking about renting this home don't hesitate, go for it!
