Seville, FL

Seville is a quiet rural community along US 17 in northwestern Volusia County. Founded as a citrus and railroad town in the late 1800s, it has settled into a peaceful countryside filled with small farms, quiet roads, and plenty of room to spread out. There is little in the way of shopping or dining in town, so residents usually make the short drive south to Pierson or down to DeLand for groceries and everyday errands.

The biggest draw for newcomers is the surrounding nature. Just west of the highway, Lake George State Forest stretches toward the St. Johns River, providing thousands of acres of protected woods for hiking, horseback riding, and fishing. Lake George itself sits right at the edge of the community, giving boaters and anglers easy access to one of the largest freshwater lakes in Florida. It is an ideal spot for anyone looking for unhurried country living surrounded by open water and wilderness.
