Shaw Farms Single Family Homes For Sale in Alachua - 4 homes

Remarks: Virtually Staged. Some properties check a box or two. This one checks the whole list. Tucked into Shaw Farms — one of Alachua County's most respected equestrian communities — this 6.28-acre hilltop property delivers the kind of setup that takes most horse owners years to piece together. The community sits along the edge of San Felasco Hammock Preserve State Park, putting miles of dedicated equestrian riding trails within reach without ever loading a trailer. On the property itself, you have a jumping course, a dressage arena, paddocks, and a barn that means business. Six 12x12 stalls with automatic waterers and attached 12x12 individual turnouts. Two tack and storage rooms. Three separate entries. High ceilings. Already plumbed for a future bathroom and laundry. This barn was thought through — not thrown together. The home sits at the top of the hill where the views do the talking. Both the front and back porch look directly out over the riding facilities and pasture. Inside, AquaGuard Performance Flooring covers every room — waterproof, pet-proof, and kid-proof, which is exactly what you want on a working horse property. Soaring ceilings with exposed hardwood beams anchor the great room. The dining room has a custom chandelier worth a second look. The kitchen is built around SMEG stainless steel appliances, generous counter space, and windows that pull the outside in from every angle. There are 2 primary bathrooms each with an oversized walk-in closet have their own en-suite baths. The dual vanities have marble counters, and tile throughout with a separate tub and shower. The backyard is no-climb fenced, keeping dogs safe and well away from the paddocks. When you are ready to leave the property, everything you need is close. Downtown Alachua and the Town of Tioga are minutes away for everyday shopping, dining, and errands. Gainesville is a short drive south, putting you near Fresh Market, Celebration Pointe, and Butler Plaza for retail and restaurants. Ichetucknee Springs State Park is roughly 30 miles northwest — one of Florida's most popular tubing and swimming springs. Ginnie Springs is about 25 miles away. For beach days, both the Gulf Coast and Atlantic Coast are within two hours. For competition, the World Equestrian Center in Ocala is 52 miles south — close enough for regular show seasons without paying Ocala prices for the land. HITS Ocala is approximately 45 miles away, making this location practical for serious competitors on both circuits. UF Health Shands Hospital and North Florida Regional Medical Center are both a short drive from Shaw Farms. This is the kind of property that does not need much of a sales pitch. The land, the infrastructure, and the location make the case on their own.
