Thoughtfully designed for active equestrians in NW Marion County's illustrious Horse Country, this farm has plenty to offer those looking to run a professional or private operation. Protected by a gated entry and new perimeter fencing, a tree-lined drive passes multiple pastures and brings you to the main areas of the farm. For equestrians, property has extensive amenities– a total of 8 pastures are established on the farm and include run-in sheds in the fields and gentle shade from large oaks. A 16-stall shed row style barn includes 12x12' stalls with mats, fans, and a fly spray system. Wash racks and grooming stalls are located at each end of the barn for added convenience, and there's a large feed room, tack room, laundry, and bathroom in the barn as well. Ride day or night in the professionally installed 125 x 230' riding arena that is outfitted with 6 high output quartz lighting poles, a viewing stand, hedge border, and railroad ties. A new 50' round pen and a gated 4 horse eurociser/walker are also present on the property. The farm is well laid out and is designed for the efficiency of use– and there are so many extras that the farm really must be experienced in person. A 4-bay equipment shed is perfect for trailer, tractor, or equipment storage. Near the barn is an additional 1-bedroom apartment with new AC and septic. Surrounded by mature landscaping with lots of curb appeal, the 3-bedroom, 2-bath CB home features a newer metal roof and gutters, a covered front porch, and gentle shade.

The living area is wonderfully spacious and includes stately french doors that lead out to a lovely back patio. All bedrooms are nicely spacious, though the primary suite is the true stand-out with a larger layout and private en-suite with dual vanities, garden tub, and glass-door shower. Those who enjoy hosting will love the large stone paver patio to the back of the home which includes a stone wall and firepit with stunning views of pastures beyond. Two generators are present on the property, one for both the barn and the home. Olive, avocado, and lemon trees are also established on the property, adding even more to enjoy.
