12345 & 12350 SW 140TH LOOP

Welcome to a one-of-a-kind equestrian estate in Bel-Lago, the exclusive gated community whose name translates to “beautiful lake” in Italian. Nestled in the heart of Ocala’s horse country, Bel-Lago is a premier enclave offering lakefront and equestrian properties. Here, a rare opportunity awaits: a lakefront estate paired with a buildable equestrian lot, complete with a custom 2-stall block barn built in 2022. Bring your horses, and enjoy the stunning lakefront views. Originally crafted as the developer’s own residence, this Modern Mediterranean masterpiece was designed to capture sweeping lake views from nearly every room. Every inch of its 4,000+ sqft is marked by distinctive details and elevated finishes, even including a 500+ sqft detached guest casita. The main home offers 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, a private dining room or den, and a 3-car garage. The garage features custom shelving and a Culligan water system with charcoal filters. The casita provides a 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom suite with kitchenette, currently enjoyed as a home theater. Step inside to discover timeless craftsmanship paired with modern luxury: an arched impact-rated glass front door, soaring ceilings with coffered and tray detailing, Travertine and white oak floors, rustic beams, and graceful archways – all accentuated by a modern white, black, and gold color palette. Entertain with ease with a whole-home surround-sound system, a private courtyard with fountain, and a brand-new (2025) outdoor kitchen fully equipped with refrigerator, reverse osmosis ice maker, dishwasher, and high-end gas grill. Outdoors, enjoy a heated saltwater pool and spa as the sun sets across the lake. Set on 1.40 acres of manicured grounds shaded by Live Oaks and citrus trees, the property overlooks a fully stocked lake that attracts waterfowl and even Bald Eagles – your own private bird sanctuary. On your spacious equine lot, you’ll find a buildable homesite, creosote 3-board fenced paddock, and an impressive 2-stall barn. Designed with durability and functionality in mind, the barn features inset rubber pavers, metal barn boards, sealed LED lighting, and a Hardie board ceiling. Each 12×12 stall includes custom steel doors, Nelson automatic waterers, and sloped flooring for a no-shaving and easy-drain environment. Behind an arched wooden door, an A/C tack room and office with custom shelving awaits, along with an A/C feed room with half bath. A wash rack and fly spray system complete the setup. With a blend of elegance, functionality, and exclusivity, this estate offers the very best of both worlds – waterfront serenity and equestrian excellence – in one of Ocala’s most coveted communities.
