Cherished Homestead and Equestrian Dream on 10 Acres! Nestled in serene Lakewood Ranch, discover a unique and sprawling estate where rustic charm marries modern convenience, offering a lifestyle filled with unparalleled opportunity and comfort. Once a sizable horse barn featuring 10 full-sized stalls, this property has beautifully evolved, connecting the original structure and the residence with a breezeway, creating a sanctuary of warmth and charm. Equestrian Excellence: Horse enthusiasts will be captivated by one of the area's finest-built barns, featuring nine 12x24 stalls, customizable to eighteen, with a separate ½ acre pasture and a dividable stall. Ride under the stars, illuminated by 30-feet tall halogen arena lights, and enjoy the convenience of a supreme 4-horse walker. The estate boasts an air-conditioned lounge/office, spacious tack room, large feed room, automatic waters, and a hot-water wash rack. With meticulously designed fences and cross-fenced pastures, designated trailer platform parking, hay storage, and a shavings bin, the equestrian offerings are truly unparalleled. Home Comforts & Modern Updates: The residence is a haven of modern updates and timeless comforts. With an open plan, spacious living areas, and a master suite with en-suite bathroom, it’s designed for ultimate relaxation. The kitchen and bathroom, remodeled in 2022, a new metal roof in 2021, and a new air conditioner installed in 2023, exemplify the commitment to quality and convenience. Extensive covered outdoor spaces, including a screened porch off the kitchen, provide the perfect setting for family gatherings, complemented by two secure rooms tailored for Florida’s unpredictable weather. Lightning protection on all buildings and a new Mighty Mule gate opener with in & out keypads ensure security and smooth access. RV Hospitality, Large Shop & Income Potential: Two separate RV hookups, complete with 50 amp electric hookup and water connections , offer a welcoming spot for friends or a potential income source for the new owners. Additionally, the property boasts a large 3,000 sqft shop/outbuilding, perfect for storing tools, toys, and more, enhancing the estate’s versatility and potential. Prime Location & Connectivity: Strategically located in the desirable Lakewood Ranch, the estate offers proximity to a myriad of amenities and locales—from the Fort Hamer Bridge and vibrant UTC to downtown Sarasota and an array of beautiful beaches. Easy commutes to St. Pete and Tampa International Airport epitomize convenience. With the Lakewood Ranch Polo grounds just a short drive away, it’s a dream scenario for boarding, training, breeding, and most equestrian activities.
