Welcome to Breath of Life Sanctuary—a truly rare offering of over 40 lush, untouched acres nestled entirely within the historic city of Milton. Set amidst the tranquil waters of the Blackwater River, this private island combines the serenity of secluded living with the unmatched convenience of in-town access. Rich in natural beauty and steeped in local heritage, the island offers a verdant canvas for your dream estate, eco-retreat, or exclusive getaway. Towering trees, winding riverbanks, and native wildlife create a peaceful paradise, just minutes from modern amenities, charming downtown shops, dining, and top-rated schools. Named after the Choctaw word oka-lusa—meaning ''black water''—the Blackwater River has been a lifeline for generations. Its gentle flow, ideal for kayaking, fishing, and paddleboarding, adds both character and charm to the island's scenic setting. Once a vital artery for timber transport in the 19th century, the river still connects Milton to its rich past and vibrant present. This is more than land, it's a legacy waiting to be written. Breath of Life Sanctuary is your chance to own a slice of history, a sanctuary of nature, and a gateway to an extraordinary future all in one. Features: 40+ private island acres within city limits; waterfront access to the Blackwater River; abundant native flora and fauna; direct access to public utilities nearby.
