Description

RESIDENTIAL and COMMERCIAL - Best of Both Worlds!
This property is a beautiful 14+ acre Ocala horse farm — but so what!? There are lots of beautiful horse farms around Ocala; it is, after all, the Horse Capital of the World. What sets this one apart is location and potential. Situated within a mile of the Florida Horse Park and the Trailhead, this farm offers potential direct access to the Florida Trail System, easy access to I-75, and a prime setting on 475A — perfect for a quick 20-minute drive to the World Equestrian Center, downtown Ocala, or The Villages.
What makes it unique, the property is Zoned A1 with a Future Land Use designation of Employment Activity Center / Equine Commercial Support District — a rare opportunity for those seeking a private equestrian retreat with strong long-term commercial investment potential. Perfect for the equestrian lifestyle today, with exciting potential for tomorrow!
The site allows for multiple opportunities including commercial, manufacturing, multi-unit residential, and more. Property features include a grassed arena of dressage size plus five paddocks, with room to add additional turnout areas. A 60 ft x 30 ft pole barn includes five stalls, water, feed, and tractor storage. Current income is generated through horse boarding. There is also an additional two-stall stable with automatic waterers and electric, along with an extensive concrete area ideal for feed storage and wash rack.
The main home features a split, open floor plan with two master suites—one with a walk-in shower and jacuzzi bath, the other with a walk-in shower. Both have walk-in closets. The third bedroom is served by a full bath with an over-tub shower. The kitchen offers stainless appliances, wood cabinetry, and granite countertops, and opens to a spacious great room/dining area that leads through disappearing sliders to a lovely covered lanai and a screened, solar-heated 28 ft long, 10,300-gallon kidney-shaped pool with salt chlorinator and waterfall.
Additional highlights include dual HVAC systems, dual hot water systems, and two wells.
The property also includes a 2004 recently renovated 3/1 mobile home (The Lone Pine Lodge), currently leased for additional income, a 30 ft x 12 ft office adjacent to the main house with full utilities, and an extra storage shed.
Surrounded by A1 properties to the north up to the Horse Park (none of which have future commercial zoning) and positioned for commercial growth to the south toward CR 484, this property truly sits in the sweet spot for both immediate enjoyment and future development. Definitely the best of both worlds!
