10 Acres – Country Estate Living on the Edge of Lakewood Ranch Rare opportunity to own 10 beautiful acres just on the edge of Lakewood Ranch, offering the perfect combination of convenience, privacy, and true country living. Located within the desirable Panther Ridge community, this unique property provides the space and flexibility to create an impressive custom estate while still being close to everything Lakewood Ranch has to offer. The property features a creek with a unique, extremely heavy-duty bridge providing access to the other side of the acreage. This creates a natural separation that makes the property feel almost like two distinct estate areas. Imagine your custom home and private residential setting on one side, while keeping horses, pastures, a barndominium, workshop, equipment, recreational vehicles, or a home-based business on the other—allowing you to keep the working portion of the property separate from your primary residence. With 10 acres, there is plenty of room for a large custom estate home, guest quarters, barndominium, oversized garage or workshop, horse facilities and pastures, subject to applicable community and county requirements. Mature trees and open areas provide a wonderful combination of privacy, natural Florida beauty, and usable land. Horses are welcome, making this an excellent opportunity for an equestrian property. Panther Ridge is known for its spacious acreage homesites, peaceful surroundings, and miles of scenic riding and walking trails. Enjoy the best of both worlds—10 private acres with the space and freedom of country living, yet just minutes from Lakewood Ranch. Whether your vision is a luxury country estate, equestrian retreat, or a beautiful home with a separate area for your animals, equipment, hobbies, or business, this property provides an exceptional canvas to make it happen. Bring your builder, your horses, and your vision. If you are interested in this property and would like to explore building options, we have relationships with several experienced custom home builders and would be happy to make an introduction and connect you with them. Just let us know, and we can help you take the next step in exploring your vision for the property. All information contained in this listing is deemed reliable but is not guaranteed.

Panther Ridge SubDv.
THE LAST GRAND OAKS HOMESITE IN PANTHER RIDGE IS NOW AVAILABLE- private, quiet, and backed by massive oaks and a creek. Tucked into one of the most desirable pockets of Grand Oaks at Panther Ridge, this vacant lot offers what buyers search for and almost never find: a private, quiet homesite framed by towering live oaks and a natural creek. Not a cookie-cutter LWR lot — this is a place to design a custom home that lives with the land. Shaded, secluded, and distinctly Florida, Grand Oaks is an established Panther Ridge enclave known for mature canopy oak trees, generous homesites, and settled neighborhood character. The neighborhood began in the early 2000s, so the oaks, and pines have had decades to become the architecture of the place. Deed restrictions, a low HOA, and no CDD set it apart from many nearby master-planned communities. Room for a pool, gardens, and, a huge backyard. Panther Ridge itself covers roughly 3,200 acres and a multiple of neighborhoods. Land-first living: an approximately 15-mile private trail network for walking, hiking, and riding horses. Deer, hawks, eagles, and the occasional fox or bobcat are part of ordinary days. You can actually see the stars at night! Elevation is one of Grand Oaks’ quiet advantages. This east-county corridor sits on higher inland ground, away from the coast and tidal surge. This parcel is in FEMA Flood Zone X — natural beauty in an inland setting removed from coastal flood risk. You are in the Lakewood Ranch orbit without the high-density village. Panther Ridge sits on SR 70 East, about ten miles east of I-75; LWR is roughly 15 minutes away, with UTC, Sarasota, and the Gulf beaches an easy drive. Schools are a central reason families choose this corridor due to a high graduation rate, athletics, and a deep activities calendar. Dining and daily life punch far above a rural-feeling homesite. Fine Dining & Entertainment can all be found in LWR. Main Street is walkable with mini golf, fine dining, and movie theaters. Waterside Place on Kingfisher Lake adds even more fine dining as well as a splash park, and year-round markets and music. UTC brings major retail and another restaurant row. Medical care is a local asset. Lakewood Ranch Medical Center is a full-service hospital expanded with a new patient tower to roughly 180 beds — ER, cardiovascular, orthopedics, women’s services, robotic surgery, and specialists. Also nearby: Florida Cancer Specialists, Johns Hopkins All Children’s outpatient care, Ranch offices, plus Sarasota Memorial and HCA Florida Blake. Infrastructure is catching up to the growth. FDOT is widening SR 70 from two lanes to four — six in sections — with new drainage, lighting, landscaping, and 10-foot shared-use paths. Roundabouts are going in at Uihlein, Del Webb, Bourneside, Lindrick, 213th Street East, Panther Ridge Trail, and CR 675 / Waterbury (completion targeted around 2027)- for much better capacity, calmer traffic, safer access. This lot is the premium version of that story — a private Grand Oaks homesite on quiet ground, backing to massive oaks and a creek, with Panther Ridge trails and parks, east Manatee’s higher inland setting, and Lakewood Ranch. Bring your builder, site the house to the oaks, and let the creek become the rear view. This is where a custom home should start. Buyer to independently verify lot dimensions, buildable area, wetlands, setbacks, utilities, HOA/architectural guidelines, flood zone, school zoning, and all other facts.
