8248 E Fort Cooper Road

Inverness, FL 34450

This 7.73-acre property offers something incredibly rare in Inverness — large acreage adjacent to town with permanently protected views. Located directly across from Fort Cooper State Park, your backdrop of mature trees, wildlife, and open wilderness is preserved forever — no future development, ever. Aerial photos showcase the full scale — sweeping tree canopy, park frontage, and a level of privacy that’s nearly impossible to find this right by the town. Wide open space, quiet mornings, and the kind of peace that’s hard to find — all just minutes from everything. Just ½ mile to the Withlacoochee State Trail and a short 3-mile bike ride to downtown Inverness — recently recognized as one of the top small towns in the U.S. — with waterfront parks, local restaurants, shops, farmers markets, and access to Tsala Apopka Lake. Build your custom home, excluded homestead, or peaceful retreat while remaining minutes from daily conveniences.
