Welcome to this charming 5-acre equestrian-ready ranch property offering true horse infrastructure, functional land, and the freedom of no HOA — thoughtfully designed for everyday farm living with room to grow. If you’ve been waiting for an affordable Anthony farm that actually functions, this is it. Now offered at $489,000, this property presents an outstanding opportunity to own one of the lowest-priced true horse farms in Marion County with usable acreage, existing equestrian infrastructure, and long-term potential. The land is flat, functional, and ready for daily use, featuring established perimeter fencing, a barn with two oversized stalls, feed room, wash rack, RV hookup, and two separate driveways designed for convenient farm access. During the summer months, the pasture produces abundant grazing grass suitable for routine equine use, helping support everyday horse care and reducing supplemental feed needs. The 4-bedroom, 2-bath ranch-style home offers a warm, practical layout with wood flooring, solid cabinetry, no carpet, and an enclosed front porch filled with natural light. The home has passed a recent 4-point inspection and includes several major updates, including metal roofs on both the residence and covered pavilion installed in 2021, along with a regularly maintained whole-home water softener system. While currently vacant, the property continues to be actively maintained and is move-in ready. The pool is professionally serviced every two weeks, systems remain operational, and recent seller improvements include repairs to cracking around the pool deck and installation of a new pool timer. The pool does require resurfacing, and pricing reflects the opportunity for a future owner to customize and enhance the space to their own taste. Outdoor living is a standout feature of the property, with a private lap-style in-ground pool and large covered pavilion ideal for entertaining, relaxing, or enjoying the peaceful farm setting after a day with the horses. The acreage also offers long-term flexibility and upside, including the potential to build a larger main residence while retaining the existing home as a guest house, rental, or multigenerational living setup (buyer to verify). 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 future potential in an area where usable equestrian acreage continues to become more difficult to find. Select images have been virtually enhanced to illustrate potential cosmetic improvements and future possibilities. If you’re looking for real land, real function, and a property with solid infrastructure ready for your personal vision, this Anthony farm is absolutely worth a look.
