Description for 3040 NE 97th Street Road, Anthony, FL, 32617
Under contract-accepting backup offers. AMAZING HORSE FARM! Welcome to this charming 5-acre equestrian-ready, ranch-style property offering fully functional land, true horse infrastructure, and the freedom of no HOA — thoughtfully designed for everyday farm living with room to expand. The main residence and the covered pavilion both feature metal roofs replaced in 2021, providing long-term durability and peace of mind. Offered at $499,000. If you’ve been waiting for an affordable Anthony farm that actually functions, this is it. This 5-acre equestrian property is among the lowest-priced true horse farms in Marion County, offering real-world functionality — not just acreage on paper. The land is flat and fully functional, featuring established perimeter fencing, a barn with two oversized stalls, a feed room and wash rack, an RV hookup, and two separate driveways designed for everyday farm use. During the summer months, the pasture produces abundant grass suitable for equine grazing, supporting routine horse care and helping reduce supplemental feed needs. The 4-bedroom, 2-bath ranch-style home is solid, warm, and practical, and has passed a 4-point inspection. Interior features include wood flooring, solid cabinetry, no carpet, and an enclosed front porch filled with natural light — a comfortable space that feels lived-in and welcoming. Major updates include a whole-home water softener that is regularly maintained, along with well-kept systems that provide peace of mind for the next owner. While the home is currently vacant, it is move-in ready and has been consistently maintained, making it easy to show and ready for its next owner. The pool is professionally serviced every two weeks, the water softener remains on a regular maintenance schedule, and the property continues to be cared for so systems and features stay in good working order. This creates a smooth, easy transition for a buyer seeking immediate enjoyment with the opportunity for thoughtful personalization and future enhancements to reflect their own vision. Outdoor living is a true highlight, featuring a private lap-style in-ground pool and a large covered pavilion — ideal for entertaining or unwinding after a day with the horses. Recent seller updates include installation of a new pool timer (with a new cover on order) and repairs to cracking around the pool deck. The pool does require resurfacing; pricing reflects current condition and allows for customization. The acreage offers long-term flexibility and potential, including the possibility of building a larger main residence while retaining the existing home as a guest house, in-law suite, or rental (buyer to verify). This property provides a solid foundation with the opportunity to add your own style, vision, and future improvements. Located approximately 20 minutes from the World Equestrian Center, with paved road access, low taxes, and no HOA, this Anthony horse farm delivers freedom, functionality, and long-term upside in an area where fully functional acreage continues to grow more scarce. Select images have been virtually enhanced to illustrate potential cosmetic improvements. If you’re looking for real land, real function, and a property ready for your personal touch, this is a must-see Anthony horse farm.
