Perfectly placed between both Ocala and Gainesville, this stunning 3+ acre mini-farm offers lots of updates and a fantastic location. Fenced and gated off of a shared road, the 5-bedroom, 2-bath home is immediately eye-catching with tasteful landscaping, a brand new roof, and a large covered front porch. Stepping inside, the interior of the home features an open, split-bedroom floor plan with high cathedral ceilings, tasteful paint choices, new wood-look tile flooring, and new interior doors throughout. The combination dining and main living area currently features a lovely accent wall, contemporary fixtures, and lots of natural light. A cozy wood-burning fireplace serves as the focal point to the family room beyond, which also includes easy-access out to the back patio. Central to the main areas of the home and well-equipped for those who enjoy cooking, the kitchen offers lots of storage space, new granite counters, stainless steel appliances, skylight for natural lighting, a large breakfast bar, and additional pantry. While all bedrooms are spacious with lots of closet room, the primary bedroom is especially notable with separate access to the patio via a set of french doors, large windows, walk-in closet, and a private en-suite with dual sinks, garden tub, and glass-door shower. The bedrooms also offer potential for other uses if needed, including the possibility for use as an office, playroom, or den as desired. At the back of the home is a large covered patio with ceiling fans and plenty of space for seating, all overlooking a large back yard. 3 paddocks are currently established on property, all with top-board-and-wire fencing and gentle shade from mature trees. A barn could be established on-property if desired, with plenty of areas that could accommodate this structure. This property has a great location minutes from both Majestic Oaks and the Ocala Jockey Club, while both HITS and the World Equestrian Center are about 30 minutes away. Both Ocala and Gainesville are a short, scenic drive away for a variety of shopping, dining, event, medical, and veterinary options. Those looking to explore the area’s many outdoor opportunities will also love the close proximity to nearby lakes, including Orange Lake and Hawthorn Prairie! This mini-farm is a wonderful opportunity for those looking for a quiet estate to enjoy the area’s year-round warm weather and convenient location!
