About this property

This is a very unique property and may be unmatched in Volusia Co. or even all of Central Florida. Sunset Island is an appx 1 acre, high and dry site in the heart of the Spruce Creek Preserve and surrounded by Strickland Bay and lands owned by the State of Florida. It is zoned entirely as B-7 Commercial Marina and has many potential uses (B-7 zoning copy may be supplied on request) but basically any water oriented project, i.e. Marina, Restaurant, Hotel, Fishing Lodge, B&B, water craft Rentals, etc. It has a very interesting history and had a Canary Island Palm ( Now deceased and removed) that had grown completely around a concrete pillar of sorts. Also, very old coins and odd tree growths have been found there. 2 residential units; a 2/2 home and a 1/1 newly re-built owner's apartment as well as a commercial building, an 'out building' w/ storage & laundry facility, and a detached garage. There are two relatively new, larger septic systems with new drain fields and a commercial, Port Orange city water feed. You also have your own turn lane off US1 from the North and a crossover in front from the South. It is located at the headwaters of beautiful Spruce Creek with access to Turnbull Bay and is on the Florida Trail, a Canoe/Kayak trail developed by the state. It is also on the designated route of the FDOT 'St. Johns River to Sea' (SJR2C) Loop Trail that is designed to allow foot and bicycle access to a safe and complete loop along the St. Johns River to New Smyrna, Port Orange, Daytona and back to DeLand and the river. You do have access also to the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) and the ocean but currently it is limited to vessels able to cross under a low bridge. Mostly canoes and kayaks or low console flats boats but there has been discussion about raising a section of the bridges. May hold a mortgage with a large down-payment and qualified buyer.* If you are looking for a Florida Keys type commercial site, outside the actual keys, this is it !
