Description

One of 4 contiguous parcels that make up Oak Lane Farm, this property personifies the Ocala horse country landscape with its rolling green pastures, grandaddy oaks, and a plethora of wildlife, including deer, fox squirrels, turkey, quail, Sandhill Cranes, and many other species of birds. With 165 acres, you will have your own private horse park. Walking or riding the gently rolling fields and woodland trails with your dog running freely by your side, under the farm's expansive "big skies", is so peaceful and yet exhilarating, you will not want to leave. But, should you prefer to venture out, this farm is truly the epicenter for all Central Florida has to offer. Load up the horses, and in less than 30 minutes you'll find yourself at the doorstep of the esteemed World Equestrian Center, where you can always expect first class horse events, fine food as well as pub fair, and other year-round festivities. The new WEC at Ocala Jockey Club is just 5 miles away, as is Orange Lake, one of the top rated lakes in the country for bass fishing. Also, Gainesville, with its exciting nightlife, museums, parks, highly rated medical facilities, airport, and of course, football games, is just 20 minutes away, and downtown Ocala, brimming with unique shops and eateries, is also just a short drive. Major airports, parks and trails, and both the East coast with available beach horseback riding, and the West Coast, are all day trips, and easily accessed from this very central location. This farm includes the Oak Hammock House which provides 2 ensuite bedrooms, 2 additional bedrooms, and one additional bath. There is also a 2 BR/4 BA Clubhouse, which features a great room, open bar with seating for 7, dining area, kitchen, and upstairs loft with plenty of room for guests. This is a fantastic place to hold events, parties, and entertain in a wonderfully spacious, functional, and fun setting that provides panoramic views from every room. The carriage house provides an office and a studio with 1/2 bath and laundry on the first floor, and a 2 BR/1 BA apt on the second floor, with spectacular views. This farm also provides a 12-stall barn with an open central area for grooming, drying and saddling. It also features matted 12x12 stalls, wash rack, equipment storage and workshop, a garage, and a 2-story apartment with windows overlooking the stalls. There is also a 24-stall center aisle barn w/feed and tack rooms, wash rack and hay storage, and a large 4-bay equipment building. Electric and board paddocks serve both barns. Adjoining acreage is also available.
