About this home
301 RAINBOW DRIVE
This oversized corner lot spans .26 acres and offers a rare balance of usability and privacy. The property has been partially cleared, giving you a head start on your build while still maintaining a healthy tree buffer for shade and seclusion—ideal for those who want space without sacrificing a natural setting. Located in the heart of Hawthorne, you’ll enjoy proximity to some of North Central Florida’s most sought-after outdoor destinations, including Orange Lake and Lochloosa Lake, known for boating, fishing, and wildlife. You’re approximately 25–30 minutes to Gainesville, 35–40 minutes to Ocala, and about 1.5 to 2 hours to St. Augustine and Florida’s Atlantic beaches. With flexible zoning that allows for site-built or mobile homes, this property is well-suited for a primary residence, weekend retreat, or investment opportunity. A corner lot has accessibility and layout options, while the existing clearing reduces upfront site prep costs. If you’ve been looking for a manageable homesite with character, location, and flexibility—this one checks the boxes.
