Most equestrian properties make you choose between the horse life and the good life. This one never asks you to! Tucked inside a gated Moore County community with resort-style amenities -- swimming pool, lakes, private beaches, tennis, pickleball, basketball, bocce ball courts, stables, and a clubhouse -- this 9.1-acre equestrian estate is the rare property that works as hard as you do and rewards you just as well. The private olympic-sized, laser-leveled clay and sand riding ring with evening lights means your ride doesn't end when the sun does. The Bermuda pastures are lush, the bridle trails are waiting, and the orchard -- apple, pear, persimmon, blueberries, blackberries -- reminds you every morning that this is not a compromise. This is the upgrade. The gated community wraps this property in something most equestrian estates and equestrian communities can't offer -- a life beyond the barn. Swimming pool, private lakes and beaches, tennis, pickleball, basketball, bocce ball courts, a full clubhouse, and community stables mean your family has as much to do as your horses do. This is Moore County at its most complete -- the barn you've always wanted, the home you deserve, and a community that makes you wonder why you waited this long to make the move. The house sits on 9.1 acres of PVC fenced Bermuda pastures, attached 4 stall barn, tackroom, feed room and hay storage barn designated laundry room and half bath is fiited throughout with Barnware components (saddle an blanket racks, gate latches, hooks etc) and Equitter Flooring systems, has overhead fly spray system, hot and cold washing area, and electric run to stalls for fans/water heaters etc. Stalls open to aisle with sliders, and to outside turnout paddocks with tongue and groove dutch doors. Barn aisle sliding doors have plexiglass panels to let natural light in without posing a hazard. Tons of storage area for feed, & barn accessories. 50x50 detached garage has oversized doors to house all farm equipment. Outdoor laser-leveled clay based unwashed sand riding ring has lights so you can ride before or after the daylight to fit around busy schedules or hot days of summer. And because it's private, you decide when the lights go out. Bridle trails surround. Pastures have water running to them from the well. House has county water and septic, 3beds, 2.5 baths iin the house with an extra half bath in the attached adjacent barn. an office on a split ranch floorplan. 2nd and 3rd bedroom share a ''Jack & Jill'' bathroom, while primary has master bath and wak-in closet. LVP in open concept kitchen/living/dining with carpet in bedrooms, tile in baths. Master Bed carpet is being replaced at owner's move-out. Mulitple patios allow sun/shade chasers to find the perfect spot to sit all day, whether the desire is view horses in the pasture, flower gardens, or mindblowing sunsets. Granite counter tops and stainless steel applainces, vaulted ceilings, stone firelace and plenty of natural light make for cozy relaxation. The Starlink setup home office is perfect for telework. This house offers plenty of space and storgae without being so big that it takes away from time doing what you want to do, whether its riding, swimming, fishing, playing pickleball or tennis. Like golf? No problem. There is a public Peter Tufts III course just outside the gates of the community with easy to get teetimes. Wanta more formal fitness center or the ability to swim in winter? No problem, there is a private gym in the community with an indoor pool. Too hot for pickleball in July? No worries, The Pickle Place is Moore County's only temp controlled indoor pickleball facility & is literally 5 minutes away. It's easy enough to find horse farms and horse communities, and its easy enough to find resort like neighborhoods with lakes and pools, but its very rare to find them together. Where else can you find a working horse farm in immaculant condition inside a resort like community?
