Description

At the heart of Ocala’s storied horse country, this ideally located mini-farm is the perfect retreat for equestrians looking to get the most out of Ocala’s desirable NW region. Situated amongst established horse farms with NO HOA, the farm is perimeter fenced and gated with 5.58 acres of land that features large grassy areas and shade from mature trees. The custom-built home rests at the center of the acreage, surrounded by an inviting country-style wrap around porch that runs the full perimeter of the home. Offering a total of 3-bedrooms and 2-baths with over 2,100 sqft, the interiors feature thorough updates and high-end finishes in most areas. Tile flooring runs throughout the majority of the home and large windows let in plenty of natural light. The kitchen is a dream for those who enjoy cooking, coming fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, abundant cabinet storage, tiled backsplash, a pantry, and a large center island. The dining area rests between the kitchen and the living area, fully open to both to allow for conversation to flow easily between spaces. All bedrooms are thoughtfully appointed, though the master suite is especially inviting with a larger layout complete with a private en-suite bathroom. A large flex area on the lower floor would be perfect for use as an office or sitting area, while the second story hosts an additional flex space that could be perfect as a private office, den, craft space, and everything in between. For equestrians, the property features a 3-stall CB barn with mats. The ‘walk out’ style barn opens to the one large established pasture, which provides options for those who would like to further divide it into smaller paddocks as desired. Highway 27 is just down the road, opening up easy access to the area’s many tack and feed retailers, veterinary providers, and equine service providers. Both HITS and the World Equestrian Center are just a short 10 minute drive away for those looking to experience some of the area’s most exciting competition and spectating options. If you’re searching for your place in the Horse Capital of the World®, look no further.
