OCALA, Fla. - May 12, 2021 - (Newswire.com)

Ocala Jockey Club, a gated equestrian retreat situated on 922 acres of picturesque countryside, has entered the market for $16.5 million. Steeped in thoroughbred tradition, this magnificent property is a horse-lover's paradise — complete with a 5/8 mile training track and extensive trail system; seven barns, paddocks and grass arenas; and a 10,125-square-foot clubhouse that can be rented for special events or transformed into a luxury estate home. Located at 8720 West Highway 318, this one-of-a-kind property is co-marketed by David Welles, P.A. of Equestrian Sotheby's International Realty of Wellington, Florida and Tasha Osbourne of Premier Sotheby's International Realty's Southeast Orlando office. Additional details can be viewed here.

With 1.5 miles of frontage on a quiet country road, Ocala Jockey Club is set back on a secluded expanse of rolling hills, spring-fed ponds and stunning countryside. The site of many equestrian events over the years, it is the only venue in the southeastern United States to serve as a qualifier for the Olympic games. A haven for raising and conditioning champions, the facilities offer full training services for thoroughbreds in all stages of their careers.

The clubhouse, which serves as an enchanting wedding and special events venue, features a chef's kitchen, large copper fireplace and meeting rooms. Boasting the second-highest elevation in Florida, it showcases breathtaking views of the farm and spectacular sunsets.

"From the abundance of acreage and established horse facilities to its proximity to the World Equestrian Center, this incredible property offers endless possibilities for the discerning buyer who wants to curate an exclusive equestrian lifestyle experience."
