Equestrians, get your riding boots on for this epic spread in Eustis, Florida . Located between Ocala and Orlando, the 70-acre estate at 22422 Lake Seneca Road features spacious main and guest houses, plus two barns for your herd and other creative endeavors. The 10,000-square-foot mansion at the center of the property was designed to house a “multi-generational family,” the listing notes, and with six bedrooms that each include an en suite bath, residents have ample space to separate and reconnect.
Now listed for $8.45 million , the stately property offers a wealth of additional amenities for your thoroughbred companions, too. Past the decorative entry gates and tree-lined drive is a fountain-clad circular motor court.
The home’s two-story facade spreads out wide, with expansive wraparound porches on both the upper and lower floors. Inside the foyer, a spiral staircase sits beneath a stylish light fixture hung from a domed ceiling with coffered detailing. There’s also a stone fireplace between built-in display shelves in the double-height living room, and stainless-steel Viking appliances enhance the gourmet kitchen that includes an oversized island with a wooden base and a casual dining area.

In the primary bedroom, which opens to a patio, wood floors lead to an bathroom with a spacious vanity, free-standing tub, and separate rain shower. The adjoining walk-in closet is decked out with gray-hued cabinetry.
Other amenities featured in the main residence include a gym and a movie theater. A waterfall trickles down into an oasis pool in the home’s backyard, next to an alfresco dining area. A large red barn adapts to any hobby or interest, such as restoring cars or making art, while its second floor contains a western-themed saloon for getting the party started.
The revitalized horse barn features 12×12 stalls, as well as a kitchen and a bathroom. Eight newly fenced paddocks, a lighted outdoor arena, and 20 acres of private riding trails wind through the property. A 2,100-square-foot, five-bedroom and three-bath guest house, which includes a library and home office, rounds out the property.
