Property Description
Imagine beginning your mornings with coffee on the wraparound porch or relaxing in the spacious screened lanai as the sun rises over rolling green pastures, majestic oaks cast long shadows across the fields, and the only sounds are birdsong and the gentle rhythm of farm life. Ideally located in the heart of Florida's premier horse country, the property is just minutes from HITS, approximately 20 minutes from the World Equestrian Center, and a short drive to the renowned Goethe State Forest and Black Prong trail systems, offering miles of scenic riding, hiking, and outdoor recreation. This is the kind of address horse enthusiasts spend years searching for.
Beyond the gated entrance, a paved drive framed by mature oaks and lush pastures creates a classic farm-country arrival. Nestled within is a beautifully maintained farmhouse designed for gathering family and friends while embracing the outdoors that make this region so special.
The home offers over 3,300 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, blending comfort with functionality. The open-concept kitchen, dining, and living areas flow seamlessly to the enclosed lanai and expansive covered outdoor entertaining spaces, creating the perfect setting for everything from quiet evenings at home to celebrations after a successful day in the show ring. Four generously sized bedrooms provide comfortable private retreats for family and visitors alike. Practically designed for both everyday living and farm functionality, the home offers an abundance of storage space including an oversized 35x26 garage. The wraparound porch and covered outdoor spaces invite you to slow down and enjoy the views from every direction
Beyond the home, the land tells its own story. Currently configured as a productive cattle farm, the property features pristine, improved pastures with running water, mature oaks, a stocked fishing pond complete with pier and platform, equipment sheds, workshop and an enormous six-bay pole barn. Yet what makes this property truly special is its versatility. Surrounded by some of the finest equestrian facilities in the country, the farm offers ample room to create the horse property you've always envisioned—whether that means a custom show barn, training arena, breeding operation, or private equestrian retreat.
While located in one of Florida's most sought-after equestrian corridors, this property's appeal extends far beyond horses. The rich pastures, mature oaks, and efficient layout offer endless possibilities for cattle, small livestock, hobby farming, gardening, or simply enjoying the privacy and freedom that come with nearly 28 pristine acres. Spend afternoons fishing from your private pond, watching wildlife wander through the shade of the oaks, or gathering family and friends under the pavilion. Blending the beauty of North Central Florida's countryside with convenient access to nearby amenities, this is where lasting memories are made and country living is enjoyed to the fullest.
In a region where location is everything, opportunities like this are increasingly rare. Whether your passion is horses, cattle, outdoor recreation, or simply enjoying the beauty and tranquility of North Central Florida's most desirable farm corridor, this remarkable property offers the space, setting, and lifestyle to make it a reality.
