Some properties feature a beautiful home. Others provide the freedom of acreage, privacy, and room for the things you love. Rarely do you find one that brings it all together-with the major improvements already completed. Privately situated behind a gated entrance on 4.23 fully fenced acres in Ocala's Crosstie Ranches, this exceptional estate combines a beautifully updated 3,269-square-foot residence, approximately 2,000 square feet of substantial barn and garage improvements, and the kind of space and flexibility that are increasingly difficult to find. From the moment you arrive, there's a sense of privacy and possibility. The expansive wraparound porch, encompassing nearly 1,100 square feet of covered outdoor living, invites you to slow down, enjoy the peaceful surroundings, and experience a lifestyle that simply isn't possible on a typical residential lot. Inside, the home blends architectural character with thoughtful modern improvements. Ten-foot ceilings, a dramatic two-story foyer, decorative aluminum railings with an elegant iron-look finish, a stone fireplace, and generous living spaces create a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The beautifully renovated 2025 kitchen is a centerpiece of the home, featuring quartz countertops, a large island, solid-wood cabinetry, farmhouse sink, beverage bar, and premium 36-inch appliances. Just as impressive are the improvements you don't have to make. A 2023 roof, two HVAC systems replaced in 2025, updated water heaters, and new Energy Star windows with a transferable warranty provide valuable peace of mind and help reduce the uncertainty of purchasing an existing home. Beyond the residence, the property truly distinguishes itself. Approximately 2,000 square feet of barn and garage improvements include four horse stalls, substantial concrete-block construction, a spacious three-car garage, and covered equipment or trailer storage. Two fenced paddocks, established infrastructure, and water access make the property ready for horses while providing exceptional versatility for vehicle enthusiasts, hobbyists, and anyone who values functional space. And unlike properties where the next owner must invest considerable time and money creating these improvements, much of that work has already been done. Here, you can enjoy the privacy of country living without giving up convenient access to Ocala's shopping, dining, medical services, and everyday amenities. The World Equestrian Center is approximately 20 minutes away. Whether your vision includes horses at home, room for a collection of vehicles, peaceful mornings on the porch, or simply the freedom to enjoy your own acreage, this property provides the opportunity to make that lifestyle your own. **The real value isn't just in what this property provides today. It's in everything the next owner won't have to build, replace, or start from scratch.** Schedule your private showing and experience the difference firsthand.
