Nestled on a quiet stretch within the neighborhood of Shady Road Ranches, this stunning estate offers the perfect combination of private, picturesque, and convenient! Fenced and gated, the property has a picturesque setting and lots of curb appeal with just under 5-acres of gently shaded countryside adorned with professional landscaping. At the heart of the estate is the stunning 3-bedroom, 3-bath multi-story home. The first floor features the main spaces of the home, offering high ceilings, lots of natural light, and a spacious layout. A cozy fireplace serves as the focal point in the primary living area, making it the perfect place to relax on cooler winter nights. For those who enjoy cooking, the kitchen is well appointed– there is abundant cabinet and counter space, stainless steel appliances, tiled backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, and a large center island. Another unique feature in the kitchen is the pass-through window that directly connects to the Sun Room– a wonderful option that makes hosting a true breeze. The formal dining area is directly connected to the living area and features lovely built-in shelving units with plenty of space for displaying collectibles, books, photos, and everything in between. The master suite is also located on the first floor, offering a stunning retreat that features a huge layout that includes a hallway with built-in shelving units, a private seating area with fireplace, a huge walk-in closet with shelving, and private en-suite with linen closet, large vanity, a large tub, and glass-door shower. If hosting is a passion, the back of the home is a perfect oasis to take advantage of. Outfitted with huge windows and ample space, the Sun Room is air conditioned and provides a built-in wet bar, entertainment area with TV, lots of space for seating, and ceiling fans to keep things cool. A pair of french doors open up to the expansive pool deck which surrounds the sparkling in-ground pool with diving board, all overlooked by an upper balcony with an exterior spiral staircase. Beyond is a huge backyard that has been meticulously maintained and landscaped. On the second floor are the remaining bedrooms and a shared bathroom. Both bedrooms feature direct access to the expansive second floor balcony, which directly overlooks the backyard and pool area, as well as attic access. Beyond the main home is a private studio-style apartment, which could be used for guest accommodations, in-laws, or even as a separate entertaining space or office if desired. Fully equipped with its own kitchen, a full bath, and ample space, there is tons of flexibility to how this space could be used! This property is located just minutes from the Florida Horse Park and a short drive from Ocala’s variety of shopping, dining, entertainment, and medical options, giving it the perfect blend of quiet and convenient! A must-see property that shouldn’t be overlooked, this charming estate is a true Ocala gem!
