Property Description

VA ASSUMABLE Welcome to 15189 NW Columbus Drive, your own private slice of North Florida country living. This property is made up of two separate legal lots totaling 6.36 acres, with a well-maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bath ranch, a second 1,100 sq ft climate-controlled building, RV covers and hookups, and years of major upgrades already done. The main home and the second building both sit on a 3.312-acre lot, and the adjoining lot adds roughly 3 more acres of open land. That gives you room for a garden, livestock, a barn, or simply more privacy between you and the neighbors. Because these are two separate legal lots, buyers have flexibility for the future. Buyers should verify permitted uses with Calhoun County. The 3,259 heated sq ft ranch, built in 2002, has a thoughtfully designed floor plan with generous living spaces, a well-appointed kitchen, and plenty of room to spread out. The guest bathroom was fully remodeled in 2024. The showstopper is the bonus room above the 3-car garage, set up as a private movie theater. It's ideal for movie nights and game days, and it would work just as well as a home office, gym, studio, or game room. Out back, a 34' x 12' x 9' lanai, added in 2024, gives you a covered spot to relax and take in the view. The separate 1,100 sq ft building is cooled and heated by a dual Mitsubishi mini split, and a 12' x 30' x 9' shed attached to its side provides storage for mowers, tools, and equipment. It's well suited to a workshop, hobby space, home business, or storage. RV owners will appreciate the 35' x 15' x 16' RV cover with hookup, plus a second RV hookup on the side of the main house. An established orchard produces fruit season after season, with 2 Southern Bartlett pears, 2 Florida King peaches, 2 Sunburst tangerines, a Meyer lemon, a Key lime, and a Friendship orange. The deep well got a new pump with a 2 HP motor in 2025, upgraded from the standard ½ HP, and it sits beside a 35' x 15' pad enclosed by vinyl fencing. A wood privacy fence was added to the backyard in 2024. The current owners have taken care of the big-ticket items. Both buildings have had metal roofs since 2019. The main home has a 2-ton AC with return (2019) and a new 4-ton AC with return (2022), with the ductwork professionally cleaned in 2023. A Daikin mini split was added in 2024. Other recent updates include new hurricane shutters in 2025, a new hot water heater in 2026, and a termite bond updated in 2026. A whole-house generator conveys with the sale. Set in the heart of Florida's river country, this property sits just 4 miles from the spring-fed Chipola River and 15 miles from the Apalachicola River, putting world-class fishing, kayaking and boating right at your doorstep. When you're ready for sand and surf, take scenic Highway 71 just over an hour south to Port St. Joe and enjoy the beautiful, uncrowded beaches of the Gulf Coast. Whether you're dreaming of a hobby farm, a quiet country retreat, room for your RV and toys, or simply space that's hard to find anymore, this property delivers. You get the privacy of country living while still being conveniently located in Altha. Opportunities like this are rare.
