DeLand, Florida has a way of hiding its best-kept secrets in plain sight.
That's one of the things I love most about this market, you think you've seen everything, and then a property surprises you. You walk a yard that looks like it ends… and then it doesn't. There's more. There's always more.
It's like that with so many homes across DeLand and West Volusia County. The character. The charm. The little details tucked behind the trees, past the brush, around the corner. Homes here have stories, and most buyers never slow down long enough to discover them.
Country Club Estates is full of those stories. And this one? You're going to want to watch until the end. 👀

This weekend we took advantage of the sunshine and explored Green Springs in Deltona/Enterprize as a family before the next cold spell rolled in. Rosie and Allen even “met a local” while admiring the springs… turns out he had scales and a tail. 🐊
If you haven’t been yet, we highly recommend checking it out! There’s a cute playground for the kids, shaded pavilions for resting, and plenty of walking paths to explore. The spring itself is the main attraction. Yes, you’ll notice the sulfur smell (totally normal!) and while no swimming is allowed, the resident alligator helps reinforce that rule.
We even spotted wild orange trees along the trails, still full of fruit. It was a great day all around, and yes, even Baby John enjoyed the views. 🌿

💡 Thinking of buying a home?
Before you fall in love with that dream kitchen or backyard oasis… get pre-approved.
🔑 Pre-approval shows sellers you’re serious, gives you a clear budget, and makes your offer stronger—especially in competitive markets.
