The Idea
Luxury Isn't Only
What's Inside the House.
Sometimes luxury is space. Sometimes it's privacy. Sometimes it's having room for the cars you've collected, the business you've built, the projects you've been waiting to start, the people you love to entertain, or simply enough land around you to breathe.
At 28154 Gopher Hill Road, luxury isn't defined by one room or one amenity. It's the freedom created when a beautiful residence, more than five acres, multiple substantial buildings and resort-style outdoor living come together in one private estate.
Lifestyle
Imagine a Day Here.
A property this size doesn't just change what you own. It changes how a day unfolds.
Morning
Coffee outside while the property wakes up around you. No neighboring rooftops filling the view. No community traffic passing your front door. Just space.
Midday
Walk across your own property to an office, studio, workshop, collection or project inside nearly 3,000 square feet of additional flexible space. No commute required.
Afternoon
Work on a project. Enjoy the acreage. Spend time in one of the additional buildings. Use your own space instead of renting it somewhere else.
Evening
The property changes personality. Pool. Spa. Outdoor kitchen. Fire features. Friends. Family. Dinner outside. A Florida sky overhead.
Night
Watch a movie in the theater. Unwind by the pool. Walk the property. Or simply enjoy what is increasingly difficult to buy in Florida: privacy.
This isn't just where you live.
It's where your life happens.
The Estate
Three Buildings.
One Extraordinary
Estate.
Most luxury homes give you one beautiful structure. This estate gives you three distinct environments, each capable of serving a completely different part of your life: the residence, the approximately 3,000-square-foot flex building, and an additional garage and lifestyle building. Together they create something far more versatile than a traditional luxury home.

Building One · The Residence
Approximately 4,815 sq ft with 5 bed / 4 bath, chef's kitchen, theater, two offices and a spa-inspired primary suite.
Building Two · The Flex Building
Approximately 3,000 sq ft with a commercial-grade gym, executive office, full bath and substantial garage and storage.
Building Three · Garage & Flex Space
A separate three-stall garage adapted as a versatile flex environment for studio, lounge or operations space.
Main Residence
Come Home to Something Exceptional.
At the center of the estate is an approximately 4,815-square-foot residence created for both everyday comfort and memorable entertaining. Five bedrooms and four bathrooms provide room for family and guests, while thoughtful spaces throughout the home allow life, work and relaxation to coexist naturally.
The residence should feel luxurious without being untouchable. This is a home meant to actually be lived in. Cook. Gather. Host. Work. Relax. And when the doors open to the outdoor living area, the home becomes part of the larger resort experience.
Building Two · The Flex Building
3,000 Square Feet
of Possibility.
Business-grade infrastructure, fully separate from the residence.
The second building on the estate is its own destination: approximately 3,000 square feet of substantial, business-grade space. A commercial-grade private gym, an executive office with a full bath and shower, and a generous garage and storage facility give equipment, vehicles, inventory, client work and collections a proper home, entirely apart from daily life in the house.
The space isn't defined by what it used to be.
It's defined by what you can make it next.
Ways the Next Owner Could Use It
Buyers should independently verify zoning, permitting and suitability for any intended use. No HOA exists at the estate, but county regulations apply as they do anywhere.
Building Three · The Third Building
And Then There's
Even More Room.
The third building is a separate three-stall garage that has been adapted as a versatile flex environment of its own. High vaulted ceilings, epoxy floors and finished, livable spaces make it suitable as a content studio, a command center, a private lounge or additional operations space, whatever the next owner needs.
At most homes, you ask: "Where would I put it?" Here, the better question may be: "What would I finally have room to do?"
Outdoor Living
Your Evenings Look Different Here.
Florida living should happen outdoors. Here, your backyard becomes part resort, part gathering place and part escape. Spend the afternoon around the pool, slip into the spa as the day winds down, prepare dinner in the outdoor kitchen, gather around the fire, entertain friends without leaving home, or enjoy the entire space with nobody else around.
Why leave home to escape when home already feels like the destination?
Privacy
Room to Breathe.
More than five acres changes the way a property feels. There is room between you and the rest of the world. Room for vehicles. Room for projects. Room for entertaining. Room for pets. Room for hobbies. Room to create. And sometimes, simply room to hear yourself think.
For buyers coming from tightly packed luxury communities, that freedom may be the greatest amenity of all.
Possibilities
What Would You Do With It?
This estate doesn't tell you how to live. It gives you enough room to decide for yourself.
The Entrepreneur
Significant flexible space steps from your residence, without automatically turning the home itself into the workplace.
The Collector
Cars, motorcycles, equipment or collections deserve more than overflow parking. Give them their own space.
The Creator
Photography. Video. Art. Design. Production. Projects. Create a space that works the way you do.
The Executive
Work privately, entertain comfortably and return home without ever leaving the estate.
The Hobbyist
The project you have never had enough room for may finally have a home.
The Entertainer
Residence, pool, outdoor kitchen, multiple buildings and acreage made for bringing people together.
The Family
Five bedrooms, multiple buildings and flexible areas allow the estate to change as life changes.
The Privacy Seeker
Maybe you do not need the buildings for anything complicated. Maybe you simply want land, quiet and privacy. That is enough.
The Value Story
Try Recreating This Somewhere Else.
When comparing 28154 Gopher Hill Road to another luxury home, price per square foot tells only part of the story. Start with another high-end residence. Then add more than five acres. Then build additional substantial structures. Add garage capacity. Add flexible conditioned space. Add the pool and spa. Add the outdoor kitchen. Add extensive outdoor living. Add the gated setting. Add landscaping, infrastructure and years of improvements. Suddenly the comparison changes.
You aren't simply buying a house.
You're buying an entire estate that already exists.
Location
Privacy Without Giving Up
the Life Around You.
The appeal of Myakka City is not that it's another master-planned community. It's precisely the opposite. Here, acreage, open space and privacy provide a different Florida experience while keeping Lakewood Ranch, Sarasota, Bradenton and the Gulf Coast within reach.
Spend the morning surrounded by your own acreage and still head into Lakewood Ranch for dinner, Sarasota for an evening out, or the Gulf Coast when the water is calling.
