About this home
2525 RANCHLAND ACRES ROAD
One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. TWO HOMES. 5.16 ACRES. BARN. WORKSHOP. PRIVACY. Endless Possibilities. If you've been searching for a property that gives you more than just a house, this is it. Set on 5.16 private acres in North Lakeland, offers a rare combination of two move-in-ready residences, extensive workspace, storage, parking, and modern infrastructure—all just minutes from I-4, shopping, and restaurants. The property features 4,147 sq. ft. of total living space across two residences, making it an exceptional opportunity for multi-generational living, extended guests, a home-based business, or buyers who want a separate private space without sacrificing proximity to the main home. The 2,109 sq. ft. primary residence, built in 2022, offers a bright open floor plan with 2 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, split-bedroom layout, custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and generous living space. The kitchen opens to the main living areas and flows outdoors to a spacious screened lanai and brick-paver patio overlooking the peaceful acreage. The 2,038 sq. ft. second residence adds an entirely different level of flexibility. With 3 bedrooms, 3 baths, a full kitchen, oversized primary suite, flex room, and rear porch, it can serve as a private in-law residence, guest house, office compound, or additional living space. And then there's the workspace. A 25' x 40' air-conditioned barn and a 52' x 25' tractor/workshop provide the kind of room that's nearly impossible to find with a typical residential property. There's also ample space for RVs, boats, trailers, work vehicles, equipment, and recreational toys. Additional features include an automatic gated entrance, 24kW generator, owned 500-gallon propane tank, commercial-grade saltwater filtration system, updated septic/drain field, and newer well and pressure tank. This isn't simply a home with a guest suite. It's a property designed around flexibility. Live in one residence and keep the other for family. Create a private work-from-home headquarters. Bring your RV, boat, vehicles, equipment, and hobbies. Spread out, entertain, work, and enjoy the privacy of acreage without giving up convenient access to Lakeland and I-4. If you've been waiting for a property where the land, living space, second residence, and outbuildings all work together—come see 2525 Ranchland Acres Road.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
