Completed in 2025 by Corey Amira Custom Homes and offered well below current cost to build, Kirby's Manor is a rare combination of architectural pedigree, premium materials, and turnkey acreage — a 2,581 sq ft European-influenced modern farmhouse sitting privately behind a fully perimeter-fenced 9.7-acre parcel between Alachua and High Springs, FL.
The home opens to a great room anchored by 21-foot vaulted ceilings and skylights, with 10-foot ceilings throughout the rest of the floor plan. Five commercial-grade Kolbe glass doors and Kolbe casement windows draw the outdoors in, while an Italian-made Domadeco entry door secured by a high-security ISEO locking cylinder sets the tone the moment you arrive. Standing seam metal roof, Hardie architectural panel siding, and a deliberate, minimalist exterior speak to a build executed without compromise.
Inside, the kitchen is built around a generously scaled island under pendant lighting, with quartz counters, Thermador appliances, and an LP Thermador cooktop and oven. All cabinetry and wardrobes are fully custom by Straw Woodwork with multiple wood species used including Red Elm in the kitchen and Ziricote in the guest bath. Hardwood floors run throughout the home, with terrazzo tile at entries and bathrooms, and a modern ventless LP fireplace anchors the living area. Two bedrooms on the main floor feature high-end ensuite baths and a versatile loft serves as a home office or third bedroom.
Beyond the residence, the property is engineered for self-reliance and lifestyle flexibility.
400-amp electrical service paired with a 26 kW whole-home standby generator on a buried 500-gallon LP tank | Two independent HVAC systems for the home with mini-splits in the oversized garage and barn | Oversized garage with epoxy floor and a dedicated EV charger plug | Private well with full water treatment including softener and iron filtration | 50-amp RV hookup with its own dedicated small septic just north of the barn slab with water nearby | Two separate Starlink terminals available to transfer with the property
The back three acres — separated from the main grounds by a 12-foot gate — has been thoughtfully configured for farm-animal rescue, equestrian use, or any serious hobby-farm pursuit. Improvements include a 20x18 metal barn on slab with two lean-tos (electrical, water, a 220V dryer plug, and cold-water washer hookup), an 8x8 hut on slab, and an 8x24 chicken coop and run by Carolina Coops with a rain-collection and recirculation drinking-water system. A small dedicated fenced backyard with two gates keeps dogs close to the house.
Less than 30 minutes from the University of Florida, Shands Hospital and HCA North Florida Hospital and only minutes from the springs of the Santa Fe corridor, Kirby's Manor delivers a turnkey luxury home on nearly 10 acres with an A+ location — for less than what the structure alone would cost to build today.
