About 5655 S Tropical Trl

Welcome to Rivertime!!! An epic 10.6 acre riverfront equestrian estate w/ 525 ft of Riverfront. Drive down your private gated driveway under a canopy of oaks, palms, and towering pines, past the 1-mile of winding trails, through the 6 horse paddocks. This vast property has 2 deep wells & pumps to irrigate its acres of lawn. The horse barn is in fantastic condition, has 6 stalls, a feed room, tack room, wash & grooming areas. The barn roof is new & the solar panel on it are less than 2 years old. The property has a total of 60 solar panels reducing the previous $500+ power bill to $150. The main house also has a new roof, & the solar panels are less than a year old. Wherever you sit in the home, you can see the Indian River. Open the sliding glass doors & listen to the water gently lap up against the seawall. Enjoy coffee or some morning yoga on the composite deck while watching the dolphins swim by. The kitchen is stocked with stainless steel appliances, gas cook top, granite count, a Subzero fridge, and of course, an amazing view of the river. The split floor plan has 2 bedrooms on the ground floor & the 3rd upstairs with an attached office space. The 2nd structure has a studio apartment which could be used for guests or a groundskeeper; a 2-car garage, 2 workshops, & covered tractor parking. The raised concrete pool is deep, almost 20,000 gallons, & surrounded by lush tropical foliage giving lots of additional privacy to this already highly private and unique piece of the old Florida lifestyle.
