Welcome to a truly extraordinary opportunity to own a luxurious executive equestrian property
in the heart of Central Florida. This private 21+ acre estate is a haven designed for ultimate
comfort and self-sufficiency. The property, equipped with a fully functioning solar system,
generates and stores more power than it consumes. In addition, a whole property Generac
generator and buried propane tank ensure an uninterrupted power supply. At the same time,
the deep water well boasts five independent redundant power systems. Conveniently located,
the estate is a mere 30 minutes from the prestigious World Equestrian Center Ocala, a short 38-
minute drive to Gainesville and the University of Florida, and less than 2 miles from the
esteemed Black Prong Equestrian Resort. With fiber optic internet availability through AT&T,
this property is an ideal telecommuter's dream, offering a seamless blend of work and
relaxation.
Ensuring your privacy and security, the estate features a gated entrance and a fully fenced
perimeter with no climb wire adorned with fresh, painted wood. As you enter through the
Japanese-inspired gate, you'll be greeted by the serene beauty of native plants and flowers,
creating an oasis that attracts butterflies and hummingbirds. A paved road winds through the
landscaped woods, leading you to the main house, a two-car garage, and a luxurious guest
cottage. The cottage, complete with a kitchenette, spa-like bath, and screened porch
overlooking a charming bamboo garden, offers your guests a unique and private experience. No
expense has been spared in the main house's meticulous design and appointment, providing a
lavish retreat from the everyday hustle and bustle. Upon entering, you'll be bathed in natural
light streaming through skylights in the vaulted tongue and groove wood ceiling. Floor-to-
ceiling glass, Pella doors, and windows offer stunning views of the stables and pasture. Relax
day or night on the fully screened back porch, observing hummingbirds, butterflies, and your
horses or cattle grazing. The open floor plan is perfect for entertaining, with dining options
inside the elegant dining room or al fresco on the screened patio, conveniently adjacent to the
kitchen. The chef's dream kitchen features an eat-in island, ample storage, a new stainless steel
Forno® gas stove, an LG® craft ice refrigerator, and exquisite imported quartz countertops. The
outbuildings are equally impressive, including a 5-stall horse barn with a heated and cooled
office, gym, storage/tack room, half bath, and washer and dryer.
A full RV hookup provides water, internet, 30- and 50-amp power connections, and a direct link
to the septic system. Three expansive grazing pastures, with newly planted and fertilized
paddocks, offer easy access to the barn. A custom irrigation system ensures ample water
delivery during dry periods. The estate also boasts an 8-foot fence surrounding an impressive
garden, safeguarding your raised bed vegetables, roses, beehives, fruit orchard, 24x60
greenhouse, walk-in processing cooler, and 24x60 shade house. You can ride your horses
directly into Goethe State Forest from this exclusive community, further expanding your
equestrian opportunities. Take advantage of the chance to own your Florida Dream Property.
