Build your dream barn your way, and bring the horses and chickens! – Overlooking just under 9-acres in the Northern region of Marion County, this charming 2-story cottage-style farmhouse is in an area that is surrounded by gorgeous horse farms. Huge granddaddy oaks dot the property, providing classic Florida scenery and stunning views all over. A covered country-style front porch is ideal for rocking chairs and enjoying sights of galloping horses on the track directly across the road. The kitchen features stainless appliances, breakfast bar, and large windows that provide plenty of natural light. The home has had some recent updates and has a cozy fireplace in the main living space. Offering 3-bedrooms and 2-baths, the home's master suite is located on the first floor and is equipped with a walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom. Upstairs is the second oversized bedroom with two dormer windows with storage bench seat providing a great space to enjoy views of the horse farm across the street. An additional bonus room is also on the second floor, perfect for use as a den, office or nursery. Downstairs, the large bonus room would be a perfect large game room or even could be a small studio apartment with its own entrance. A peaceful screen-enclosed lanai could be used for a scenic workout space, or as additional space for relaxing and taking in the sights of the farm. The picket-fenced back yard and the gorgeous front lawn are irrigated with stunning St. Augustine grass in the front. Mature trees and beautiful landscaping abound, and there's even your own tangerine tree in the pasture. Equine amenities include a carport/shelter for the horses in the additional 2-board fenced corral area within lush, fenced and cross-fenced green pastures. Perimeter pasture fence and cross-fencing is no-climb wire and top board for horses. A large shed is currently used for tack and feed room, and a second smaller attached shed also includes a covered hay storage area. The farm includes a no-salt water softener, leaving valuable minerals in the water for the horses and water purifier. Almost everything you need for the best of relaxed country living is on the property, with a location only minutes to the new Ocala Jockey Club that is coming soon and less than 25 minutes WEC and Downtown Ocala. A short drive will bring you to Indian Lake Greenway Trailhead. Please note, the portable round pen, hay hut and small portable shelter in the back pasture are not included.
