luxury farmhouse for sale Citra, United States

A truly unique and versatile property with the potential to become so much more than a private horse farm. Previously operated as a horse rehabilitation facility, this 9.34-acre property near WEC and HITS offers an exceptional foundation for a variety of ideas, from a private equestrian estate or horse retirement setup to a boutique wellness retreat for people and horses, an Airbnb concept or a completely different creative business. The infrastructure is already here; the next chapter is yours to create. The farm features eight stalls, a laser-levelled riding arena, shaded pastures and large dry lots, providing a flexible setup for everyday riding, controlled turnout, easy keepers, senior horses and horses with more advanced management needs. The entire facility was thoughtfully designed with Florida's heat and humidity in mind. The barn features a misting system and multiple fans to help keep the horses cool and comfortable, with the adjacent dry lots also benefiting from the cooling mist. A pasture horse shower on one of the turnout areas gives horses an additional way to cool off while spending time outside. Two climate-controlled wellness spaces add another layer of versatility rarely found on a horse property. One is a Himalayan salt room designed for horses with respiratory, allergy or skin-related concerns. The second was designed as a full-body red light therapy room and features a dedicated horse standing area. The red light panels may be available separately. Without them, the climate-controlled room remains incredibly useful for grooming, farrier work, veterinary visits or simply handling horses that are more comfortable in a cool, enclosed space. It could also easily be converted into a tack room, additional storage, office or almost anything else your vision requires. The three-bedroom, two-bath home offers 2,372 sq. ft., with a new roof in 2023 and new A/C in 2024. This is the kind of property that can evolve with its owner. Keep it private, build a business around it, create a wellness destination or take it in an entirely different direction, the possibilities are already built in.

Fenced and cross-fenced with good access, the property is both functional and scenic. Conveniently located just minutes from downtown Bushnell and I-75, the property sits roughly 5 miles from Withlacoochee River access and about an hour from Crystal River, Tampa, and Ocala.

Set atop the high, rolling elevations of Dade City, Sheik Island Farm is a rare 267±-acre equestrian estate where intentional design and natural beauty align. The land's broad contours create steady breezes and sweeping vantage points, while mature oaks and 100-foot elevations frame uninterrupted views across manicured paddocks and the shimmering waters of Buddy Lake and Lake Pasadena. The elevated setting gives the farm a sense of openness and tranquility that endures throughout the year. Developed in the late 1990s by a family deeply involved in competitive equestrian sport, the estate was crafted over several years in partnership with Blackburn Architects, the nation's leading experts in equine-safe, performance-focused design. Their influence is evident throughout: purposeful sightlines, natural ventilation, intuitive circulation patterns, and structural features tailored to high-level equine care. Conceived from the outset as a complete equestrian destination, the property integrates roads, paddocks, barn orientations, natural drainage systems, and residential placements with deliberate operational flow. Paddocks are arranged for efficient movement and supervision; barns are positioned to capture prevailing breezes; and residences offer privacy while remaining closely connected to the daily workings of the farm. A network of resurfaced shell and grassed roadways ensures smooth access between barns, arenas, and pastures in every season. Horses, staff, vehicles, and equipment move through dedicated lanes without interference, and the alignment of barns reduces steps, improves oversight, and streamlines daily routines. The result is an estate that delivers both beauty and dependable functionality-day after day, year after year.
