Tucked beneath a canopy of grand oaks on 30+ acres of pristine Marion County soil, this distinctive equestrian estate is a rare gem that blends functional design with a luxurious lifestyle— all just minutes from HITS, World Equestrian Center, and Sweet Dixie South. At the heart of the property lies a custom 2-bedroom, 3-bath residence with character and craftsmanship at every turn. From the welcoming covered front porch to the dramatic domed skylight in the living room, the home is filled to the brim with mid-century architectural detail. Cathedral ceilings, wood-accented finishes, and tile flooring enhance the sense of openness, while abundant natural light from the new windows and french doors connects each space with the outdoors. A semi-open layout allows for effortless flow—perfect for both quiet living and lively gatherings. Designed for both functionality and style, the kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances, a flat cooktop, wood-front refrigerator, center island, and generous cabinetry. A cozy breakfast nook with bay windows offers a peaceful spot to enjoy morning views of the covered side patio. Just off the kitchen, the family room invites relaxation with a fireplace flanked by built-in shelving and French doors that open to the patio for seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining. A flexible bonus room nearby is ideal for a home office, creative space, or private sitting area. The primary suite offers its own fireplace, an oversized walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired en-suite bath complete with dual sinks, a garden tub, walk-in shower, and private patio access. On the opposite wing of the home, the second bedroom includes its own full bath and walk-in closet, ensuring privacy for guests. Connected via a covered breezeway, the cottage/garage includes a separate 1-bedroom, 1-bath apartment with kitchenette area and separate office with its own patio,ideal as guest quarters or an in-law suite. For the equestrian, the facilities are second to none. A 5-stall center aisle barn features a tack room, feed room, bathroom, and hot water, while a separate 4-stall barn provides plenty of additional room for further stalls to be added. Training options abound with a 125’ x 250’ irrigated arena, round pen, and 12 paddocks including pastures with run in sheds— each set against a backdrop of sprawling oaks and lush soil. A large storage building includes concrete floors and 2 RV hookups with well and septic, adding even more options for seasonal use or long-term guests. Good perimeter fencing and thoughtful layout make this a truly functional farm for multiple disciplines. Located in a desirable, non deed restricted area which is highly convenient to both Ocala and Gainesville. This property is a rare blend of charm, beauty, and possibility.
