Now $539,900 — 5 Acres with Pool, Barn & No HOA | 15 miles to WEC This ranch-style 4-bedroom, 2-bath home delivers true Florida country living on 5 fully fenced acres—solid, move-in ready, and packed with versatility. Inside, you’ll find approx. 1,400 sq ft with a formal dining room, fresh paint, a whole-home water softener, and a built-in safe room for peace of mind. Major updates include metal roofs (2021) on both the home and the pavilion and HVAC (2011). Best of all, the house has already passed a Four-Point inspection—a big plus for buyers and insurers alike. Outdoors, the oversized pool + pavilion (with grill/storage) set the stage for family reunions, get-togethers, and weekend gatherings. Prefer improvements your way? Sellers are offering a $5,000 credit toward buyer’s closing costs or projects such as resurfacing the pool—your choice. Purpose-built and infrastructured for the equine lifestyle, the property features a barn with stalls, multiple paddocks with water to each, a Hay Hut, chicken coop, dog run, and an RV hookup. There’s even a trail just behind the property where you can ride and practice with natural obstacles—a perfect bonus for horse owners. With level acreage and no HOA, there’s room to expand—guest house, workshop, or studio—and you’re only ~15 miles to the World Equestrian Center (WEC), plus convenient to shopping and dining. A turnkey farm setup with pool, pavilion, safe room, equine infrastructure, and acreage—one of Marion County’s best values. Schedule your showing and see why this property stands out.
