Description

Fenced and gated on just under 5-acres, this turn-key horse farm is located just beyond the Alachua County line into Gilchrist County escaping high property taxes. Resting at the heart of the property and surrounded by mature landscaping is the 3-bedroom, 2-bath home. A country-style covered front porch is an inviting first impression of the home and provides ample space for a set of rocking chairs to sit and enjoy life on the farm. Stepping inside, the interiors of the home feature an open floor plan, high cathedral ceilings, tasteful paint choices, tile floors and lots of natural light throughout. The kitchen is well-equipped with lots of counter and cabinet space, a center island, and adjacent breakfast nook with french doors leading out to the lanai. A cozy gas fireplace in the living room provides the perfect ambience as well as heat during cooler winter nights and the open layout keeps conversation between the kitchen and living space flowing. All bedrooms are nice and spacious, but the master suite includes a private en-suite and walk-in closet. To the back of the home is a large screen-enclosed lanai that provides plenty of opportunity to enjoy views of the surrounding farm. Nearby is the nicely laid out 2-stall barn that includes equipment storage, feed room, wash rack and room for more stalls. 3 paddocks are currently established on the property and are board-and-wire fenced. Also on property is a large detached building that includes a two-car carport and built-in workshop or large equipment storage. This stunning turn-key horse farm is just 5 miles outside of Newberry and 15 minutes to Gainesville, giving the property a highly convenient location to a variety of shopping, dining, entertainment, and medical options. A short 8.4 mile drive will also bring you to the Canterbury Equestrian Showplace, which features a variety of competition opportunities all year long. Black Prong Equestrian Village and HITS are both less than an hour away, providing even more equestrian opportunities to explore in the nearby area!
