Minutes from the World Equestrian Center, this 6+ acre Ocala equestrian property offers a rare combination of a private horse farm, gated community living, 7-stall barn, fenced pastures, and direct ride-out access within Saddlebrook Equestrian Park with miles of bridle trails. Designed for both horses and everyday living, the property captures the Ocala horse-country lifestyle while keeping WEC, Golden Ocala, veterinary services, feed stores, shopping, and everyday amenities within convenient reach.

Major improvements add to the property's move-in-ready appeal, including an updated roof (2024), well pump (2025), septic system and drain field (2025), windows (2022), and Icynene attic insulation. The home and grounds have also been freshly power-washed, mulched, and landscaped. The equestrian facilities include fully fenced and cross-fenced pastures and a center-aisle 7-stall barn with tack room, wide breezeways, and exterior stall doors providing convenient access to turnout. One of the property's standout features is access to the community bridle path that circles the neighborhood, allowing riders to leave the farm and enjoy private ride-out access without trailering their horses. Inside, double entry doors open to a light-filled great room with soaring ceilings and expansive views across the pastures. The island kitchen combines functionality with warm character, featuring granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, stone accents, and generous gathering space for everyday living and entertaining. Dual staircases positioned on either side of the home add architectural interest and provide convenient access between levels. Adding significant flexibility is the spacious studio apartment above the garage. Complete with a full bath, dishwasher, sink, cabinetry, and private balcony overlooking the farm, the space is well suited for guests, extended stays, or additional accommodations. Saddlebrook Equestrian Park offers the increasingly hard-to-find opportunity to own acreage and keep horses within a gated Ocala equestrian community while remaining just minutes from the World Equestrian Center. With 6+ acres, established equestrian infrastructure, ride-out access, significant recent improvements, flexible additional living space, and a location in the heart of Ocala horse country, this property is ready for its next chapter.
