Nearly 10 Acres of Equine-Country Living in Equine Acres Discover the rare combination of space, privacy, and convenience in Equine Acres, a desirable deed-restricted community of larger homesites where expansive acreage and a peaceful country lifestyle are the norm. Set on 9.93 cleared and fenced acres, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offers approximately 3,088 square feet of heated living area and 4,995 square feet of total space, providing plenty of room to live, work, entertain, and enjoy the land. The property is already set up for the country lifestyle, with open fenced acreage ready for horses, cattle, gardening, or simply enjoying wide-open space. Mature oaks, magnolias, and established fruit trees add character, shade, and a sense of permanence to the landscape. The home is tucked away along a private asphalt road, offering the peaceful atmosphere of a rural retreat while remaining remarkably convenient to everyday amenities. Inside, the spacious split-bedroom floor plan offers comfortable separation between the primary suite and secondary bedrooms. The heart of the home is a generously sized kitchen with abundant workspace, complemented by both a formal dining room and breakfast nook. A welcoming fireplace creates a natural gathering space in the main living area, while the thoughtful layout provides plenty of flexibility for today's lifestyle. The property also delivers exceptional utility with a two-car attached garage plus a separate two-car detached garage, offering ample room for vehicles, equipment, hobbies, storage, or a workshop. The third full bathroom is conveniently located near the garage within the laundry/mudroom area—an especially practical feature for anyone coming in from the pasture, working around the property, or enjoying outdoor activities. Completed in 1996 and exceptionally well cared for, the home offers the solid proportions, craftsmanship, ample storage and generous spaces that are increasingly difficult to find in newer construction. Its timeless layout and well-maintained condition provide an excellent foundation for a buyer who wants to make the home their own over time, with the freedom to personalize finishes and style according to their own vision rather than paying a premium for someone else's renovations. And the location is hard to beat. Enjoy the tranquility of acreage living while being just minutes from The Villages, shopping, restaurants, medical facilities, and hospitals, with convenient access to I-75 and the Florida Turnpike. From here, Tampa, Orlando, Ocala, and Gainesville are all within an easy drive, making this an ideal home base for those who want the privacy of the country without giving up connectivity. Nearly 10 acres. A substantial home. Multiple garages. Fenced and ready for livestock. Mature landscaping. A private road. And the freedom to create the property you've envisioned. Opportunities to acquire this much land in a well-established, deed-restricted community—while still enjoying easy access to Central Florida's major destinations—are increasingly difficult to find.
