Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
Property Entrance
We've lived on the same piece of land since 1975 with 2 vacant parcels joining ours. A Plat
dated 1926 shows two 60' strips of land that were going to be used access streets when subdivision was built. Subdivision never occured and now 80 years later, new owner of one parcel demanding roads to be opened.
These strips have separate parcel #'s in our names (since 1995) when purchaser of ''Estate'' realized he was paying taxes on roads that didn't exist and led nowhere. Can we be made to clear
land and open roads that will destroy our sprinkler systems, lawn, flower beds, shrubs and +80 year old trees?

It depends, but one would need to do a detailed study of the title to give a better answer.
