Property Description
Experience unmatched security, sustainability, and sporting luxury at this one-of-a-kind 17+/--acre "Net Zero" masterpiece. Located in the privacy of Lexington Downs—one of only eight Equestrian Farms in the community—this estate is perfectly positioned just 2 miles from the Florida Horse Park and 18 minutes from the World Equestrian Center (WEC).
Fortified & Future-Proof Living:
Custom-built by Jim Bennett of Bennett Construction Services Inc, and in conjunction with the original owner, the 2,660 sq. ft. residence is a marvel of "over-engineered" construction as was featured in the Parade of Homes and also in Ocalastyle Magazine in March of 2012. The interior boasts high ceilings and spacious room sizes, anchored by a gourmet kitchen featuring granite countertops and solid oak cabinetry. The master suite serves as a true retreat, complete with huge walk-in closets.
Beyond the aesthetics, the home offers Category 5-level peace of mind with poured concrete clad walls, foam-injected concrete block with fiberglass-lined insulation, and argon-filled impact-resistant windows. The infrastructure is designed for total energy independence, with dual 200 Amp feeds for ample power and expansion capabilities, all powered by an 18kW Enphase solar system (45 panels) with 15kW Enphase battery backup and a Water Furnace Geothermal HVAC, resulting in a "zero-bill" lifestyle.
Elite Equestrian Facilities:
This turn-key facility is a dream for competitive riders and breeders.
• The Barn: A 50'x64' custom courtyard-design barn with 18'–24' ceilings, featuring 4 oversized Euro stalls (expandable to 8) with frost-free auto-waterers and premium interlocking fitted Zion cushioned rubber flooring.
• Training & Turnout: 17 acres of fully fenced and cross-fenced "equine paradise" using high-end post and no-climb materials. Includes three external corral pens, a 60' round pen, and ample space for a professional arena.
• Zoning Rare Find: Recent HOA amendments now permit livestock and exotic animals, offering rare flexibility for specialized collectors or high-end breeders.
Outdoor Oasis & Security:
Relax in the massive 2,000+/- sq. ft. screened enclosure featuring a 32-ft heated saltwater pool with a Diamond Brite finish and a luxury mansard roof. The property is buffered by mature oaks and magnolias, bordering a serene 440-acre farm for ultimate privacy. Security is paramount with a 24/7 "Watchman" smart-gate system providing app-accessible monitored entry.
Additional Features:
• Triple oversized garage with insulated attic storage.
• Extra-deep RV housing within the barn including 50-amp service.
• Direct 200-yard access to the Greenway trail system.
• Quick 4-mile access to I-75.
Discover the peak of Ocala's "Horse Capital" lifestyle—where structural integrity meets off-grid luxury."
