River Ridge North, a 2,069-acre plantation in Leon County, Florida, has sold for the highest price per acre of any comparable tract in the Red Hills region — privately brokered by The Wright Group from introduction to closing. The property's signature 1.5-mile live oak canopy drive opens onto classic piney woods managed in the time-honored Red Hills tradition, with wild bobwhite quail, four professionally managed lakes totaling nearly 100 acres of world-class bass fishing, a dedicated duck pond, and exceptional deer and turkey habitat. More than 3.5 miles of the Ochlockonee River wind through the property, anchoring a living ecosystem of bottomland hardwoods, cypress flats, and wetlands, while a boardwalk through virgin hardwoods leads to a thriving wading bird rookery. A conservation easement held by Tall Timbers Research Station and Land Conservancy ensures this irreplaceable landscape endures in perpetuity.
