A pair of spectacular properties in Florida, as seen in Country Life
As the August rain continues to hammer down across Britain, the thought of a home in sunnier climes seems all the more alluring.


Marion County, Florida — $9,800,000
This breathtaking 602-acre Florida property features rolling hills, mature oak trees and high elevations.
'Your dreams will come true' say the agents of a property which includes its own clubhouse.
The estate also includes five townhouses, barns, pastures and gorgeous parkland.
For sale with Valhalla Estates. See more pictures and details about this property.
Vero Beach, Florida — $6,000,000
Comprehensively renovated in 2019, this light-filled oceanfront home features professional interior design and is offered furnished.
Entering through the front garden, a central courtyard features a 36’ swimming pool surrounded by a beautiful trellis-covered lounge area.
The living room, kitchen and master suite are all situated on the house's second storey in order to make the most of the location: all three rooms open on to a deep, full-width covered porch overlooking the dunes and the Atlantic Ocean.
Exquisite houses, the beauty of Nature, and how to get the most from your life, straight to your inbox.
For sale with Windsor. See more pictures and details about this property.
Country Life is unlike any other magazine: the only glossy weekly on the newsstand and the only magazine that has been guest-edited by His Majesty The King not once, but twice. It is a celebration of modern rural life and all its diverse joys and pleasures — that was first published in Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee year. Our eclectic mixture of witty and informative content — from the most up-to-date property news and commentary and a coveted glimpse inside some of the UK's best houses and gardens, to gardening, the arts and interior design, written by experts in their field — still cannot be found in print or online, anywhere else.
