This Saturday, accompanied by a Junior REALTOR®, I set out to tour the farm at 13800 Moccasin Gap Road. The farm located along a picturesque Tallahassee canopy road, is only a short drive from the more suburban North and Eastern quadrants of Tallahassee. However, there is nothing suburban about Moccasin Gap. Despite its convenience to the North and Eastern portions of town, it is set back in a rural world all its own.
Just past Bradley’s Country Store (a historical area landmark,) you will find the entrance to Redemptive Love Farm braced by the sweeping arms of century old oaks draped in spanish moss. No doubt, you also will catch sight of the Property Finders Realty sign offering a tour to any interested buyers.
Yes, this farm is for sale. And, no the Carrolls will not be leaving the farm life or throwing in the towel on their petting zoo. The family of seven loves God, being parents, and being farmers (in that order.)
Before beginning their journey as farmers, the family owned a home in the prestigious Southwood Community. They had every material thing that one could ask for in life, but they desired more. What they really wanted was to spend less time working for stuff and more time with each other.
They sold their cars, their home, and moved into a small four-acre farm. A year later, they purchased their current 7-acre property at Moccasin Gap and thus was born Redemptive Love Farm. Today, their farm is home to an eclectic group of animals, many of whom are rescued pets. The family is ready, yet again, to expand. They are looking towards owning more acreage that will allow them to provide a loving home to more animals.
This is the chance to own your own farm or petting zoo! Over 7 total acres ( including 2 acres of Canopy Road Protected acres. ) This is the perfect chance for a family with desires for homestead. The property, priced at $199,900, includes 5 acres of working farm land, fenced and cross-fenced, and mature producing fruit trees (muscadine grape vine, wild blackberries, blueberry bushes, pear, pecan, lemon, Satsuma orange and grapefruit).
