Description of Property
One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Back on the market—and this time, It's Your Opportunity! Sometimes a property comes back around not as a setback, but as a gift to the next visionary buyer ready to unlock its full potential. As you turn off the highway and travel down the quiet private drive, the outside world fades away. Open paddocks greet you, balanced beautifully by mature oak trees that shade the homestead and create a peaceful, park-like setting. The land is fully fenced (with wire and board), thoughtfully laid out, and well-suited for horses, cattle, or a variety of other livestock. Each paddock includes a natural water reservoir, reinforcing the property’s strong agricultural roots. This is an estate rich with infrastructure and possibilities. Improvements include two homes, a 6-stall horse barn, paddocks, chicken coops, feed house, hay barn, equipment storage, a pole barn, workshop and woodworking shop, boat house, and even a historic syrup mill—an authentic nod to the property’s past as a working homestead and gathering place for generations. Electricity is provided by Ocala Utilities, with a generator in place for added peace of mind. The main residence features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, highlighted by a large covered back porch overlooking the paddocks—ideal for morning coffee or sunset views—and a spacious fire pit area perfect for entertaining. The second home features two upstairs rooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath and is adorned with warm, timeless pine paneling, lending it undeniable character. Yes—there is deferred maintenance, and that’s exactly where the opportunity lies. A remodel or restoration allows the next owner to reimagine the property while preserving its soul—whether as a working farm, private family retreat, equestrian estate, income-producing venture, wellness or rehabilitation center, or forest escape. Set on just over 32+ acres of truly private land tucked within the Ocala National Forest, this rare farm offers a level of seclusion that is increasingly hard to find—yet remains conveniently located just 2.5 miles from the Ocklawaha River, 15–20 minutes to dining and shopping, and approximately 35 minutes from the world-renowned World Equestrian Center. Once a cherished homestead… now ready for its next chapter. Privacy. Acreage. Infrastructure. Vision. Opportunities like this don’t come around often—and rarely come back twice. **Some photos have been digitally enhanced and AI-rendered to illustrate potential updates and improvements.
