Walk The Parcel
Nine and a half acres is a different conversation in person. Aerials do not carry the smell of the pasture or the sound of the canopy.
Schedule a Private Walk-ThroughThe View From Above
These aerials reveal what a streetside drive cannot: the cleared paddocks, the palm canopy ringing the original homeplace, and Pine Island Sound holding the horizon. A short list of frames, each one a different way to read the land.
“Properties can be replicated. History cannot.”
The Estate
This is a 9.5-acre estate set within the historic heart of Pineland, on Pine Island, in Southwest Florida. The parcel has been held within a single family for five generations, a span that reaches back more than a century and ties the land to a continuity rarely found in today's market.
The AG-2 zoning gives the next owner real flexibility. The acreage is already configured for working use, with two established horse paddocks, stables, multiple outbuildings, and expansive usable open ground. The setting suits equestrian, agricultural, recreational, or private estate use, and preserves the timeless country character of the area.
Positioned near the center of the parcel is a residence originally constructed in 1926 and now officially one hundred years old. The home remains occupied and functional. The next owner may choose to restore and preserve a piece of Pine Island's earliest building stock, or reimagine the property entirely. The structure is not the primary contributory value of the estate, but its presence supplies a sense of authenticity that cannot be recreated.
What truly distinguishes the offering is its location. The parcel sits adjacent to the ancient Calusa Canal system and within sight of the Pineland archaeological district, a landscape once engineered by the Calusa civilization, among the most advanced indigenous societies in North America. Hand-built canals, shell mound complexes, and a settlement historians associate with the name Tanpa lie within walking range. The land carries weight that price alone does not capture.

The District
Pineland is a small, quiet village on the western shore of Pine Island, set between mangrove fringe and the working interior of the island. The Randell Research Center and the Pineland archaeological site preserve one of the most important Calusa settlements ever documented. Visitors walk the same shell mounds and canal traces that supplied an indigenous society of fishermen, traders, and engineers for more than a thousand years.
A short drive south brings the marinas, restaurants, and old-Florida charm of Bokeelia and St. James City. The pace stays slow. The history stays in view.
