Description

Discover a hidden slice of Old Florida charm at 1469 Coffee Mill Hammock Rd in the peaceful Ortona community just outside of LaBelle & Moore Haven. Nestled on approximately 5.35 private acres beneath a canopy of majestic oak trees, this unique property offers the kind of natural beauty and quiet country lifestyle that is becoming increasingly hard to find. The grounds are filled with mature tropical landscaping, exotic plants, fruit trees, and lush native vegetation, creating a truly park-like setting. One of the area’s most appealing qualities is its authentic small-town Florida atmosphere — something many buyers are searching for as Florida’s coastal communities continue to experience rapid growth and development. Here, you’ll still find peaceful backroads, open spaces, friendly neighbors, and the slower-paced lifestyle that defines classic Old Florida living. The 1,536+/- sq ft home features rustic character and endless potential, including a wraparound screened porch perfect for enjoying peaceful mornings and relaxing evenings surrounded by nature. A detached garage/workshop provides additional storage and workspace, while a separate former chapel structure connected by the screened lanai offers flexibility for a guest space, office, studio, hobby room, or retreat area. Horses are welcome, and there is ample room for gardens, a pool, recreational vehicles, or future improvements. This property is in need of significant renovation and is being sold as-is, making it the perfect opportunity for investors, flippers, contractors, or buyers with vision looking for their next project. Deals like this rarely hit the market — offering over 5 acres of secluded land, mature tropical landscaping, multiple structures, and endless possibilities in a peaceful Old Florida setting. With the right restoration, this property could become an incredible private estate, retreat, or income-producing investment. Located just minutes from the Ortona Lock, public boat ramps, fishing, and outdoor recreation, this property offers privacy, country living, and exceptional upside potential for the right buyer.
