Property Description

Rare opportunity to acquire a true large scale equestrian property in the heart of Newberry and Jonesville. Situated on 37 acres in highly desirable Marlboro Farms, this 40 stall facility offers a level of infrastructure, functionality, and location that is increasingly difficult to find in Alachua County, approximately 45 minutes from the World Equestrian Center. At the center of the property is a substantial concrete block barn with metal roof and truss construction, built for durability, safety, and long term use. The barn includes 40 stalls, automatic waterers, multiple tack and feed rooms, a fly system, six wash racks including one with hot water, and an efficient layout designed for daily operation. The property features 17 irrigated paddocks with automatic waterers, providing consistent grass and allowing for year round rotation. Additional equestrian improvements include a 150 x 250 irrigated arena with footing, a grass jump field, and an 80 foot round pen with observation deck. A 3,000 square foot metal equipment building with approximately 25 foot ceilings provides substantial storage and operational support. The residential component includes a duplex totaling approximately 2,700 square feet, with a 3 bedroom 1 bath unit and a 1 bedroom 1 bath unit, along with a separate office and bathroom. This allows for staff housing, rental income, or on site management, with the option to build a custom primary residence. Located less than a mile from Publix, Tractor Supply, and restaurants, and just minutes to the Town of Tioga, UF, and Santa Fe College, this property is a rare combination of scale, convenience, and usability within a rapidly growing area. In addition to its current use as a working equestrian facility, the property offers long term flexibility. With the existing plat, there may be potential for additional homesites, subject to county approval, creating further opportunity for future use or investment. Large properties of this scale and capability are rare in this location. This offering presents an opportunity for a trainer, investor, or owner occupant to operate an income producing equestrian business, create a private estate, or capitalize on future potential. Owner financing available.
