Property Description
Discover a rare opportunity to own 125 acres of fully operational ranchland along the edge of Florida's historic ridge in southeastern Polk County. Located on Lake Buffum Road near Fort Meade, this exceptional property combines wide-open pasture, established ranch infrastructure, and a beautifully maintained custom home-creating an ideal setting for cattle, horses, recreation, or simply enjoying the privacy and freedom of rural Florida living. The ranch is high and dry, fully fenced, and ready for livestock, offering expansive acreage with the infrastructure already in place for a working cattle operation. A three-stall horse barn with tack room provides dedicated equestrian space, while an additional storage barn offers plenty of room for equipment, implements, and ranch necessities. With its generous acreage and established improvements, the property offers the increasingly rare opportunity to step directly into an authentic Florida ranch lifestyle. At the heart of the property is an exceptionally clean and well-maintained 1,752-square-foot custom home designed for comfortable country living. The updated kitchen features wood Shaker-style cabinetry, Italian quartz countertops, and modern finishes, while both bathrooms have been updated with quartz countertops. The home is further enhanced by Pella hurricane-impact windows and sliding doors, new double front doors with a custom storm protection system, and a durable metal roof, providing both quality and peace of mind. Surrounded by open land and Florida countryside, the residence offers a peaceful retreat after a day on the ranch while remaining conveniently positioned for access to Fort Meade, Bartow, and Lake Wales. Whether envisioned as a working cattle ranch, equestrian property, recreational retreat, or private family compound, Polk Ridge Ranch offers the acreage, improvements, and location to create something truly special. 125 acres of Florida ranchland-established, functional, and ready for its next chapter.
