About this home
177 E 3RD AVENUE
Opportunity, character, and Old Florida charm come together on this unique 5-acre property in Pierson with Moore Pond access! Located in Northwest Volusia County’s horse country, this high and dry property sits at approximately 85 feet above sea level and offers a peaceful rural setting with outstanding potential. Set beneath a stunning canopy of large, mature oak trees, the 1947 home is full of character and ready for someone with vision to restore it. The property features a new roof, new septic, a pole barn and lean-to, 2 active ferneries of Plumosa and Tree Fern (with no need to freeze protect), pond access, and 2.5 acres of irrigated hammocks planted with mature foliage production served by a 4-inch well. There is also potential for continued agricultural use, with the agricultural water consumptive use permit able to be reapplied for through SJRWMD. With horses allowed by zoning, this property offers flexibility for farming, equestrian use, hobbies, storage, or future plans. The home does need significant repair, making this an ideal opportunity for an investor, renovator, or buyer looking to restore a vintage homeplace to its former charm. Conveniently located just about 30 minutes from Ocala or Ormond Beach, this property combines country living, agricultural potential, and a location that keeps you within reach of town, coast, and central Florida amenities.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
