A quiet home life where one’s family is surrounded by vast open land, with a garden full of fresh produce and maybe even a chicken coop in the backyard often comes at the expense of not being able to live near the shops, schools and offices visited often if that same family chooses to live in a city.
An upcoming Alachua County subdivision is looking to challenge that notion by offering the best of both worlds an “agrihood” close to city amenities that’s focused on keeping nature at the forefront.
Flint Rock, located west of Parker Road and south of Oakmont in the 5000 block of Southwest 122nd Street, is the brainchild of the developers Tymber Reed, Tara Beauchamp and Amy Paras who are sisters and their friend Marylin Deas. Once completed, it will consist of three distinct gated communities that have community gardens and natural walking trails. Many homes will back up against conservation lands.
