Just south of Wellington is a hidden gem of a community called Homeland, a bit off the beaten horse path, yet beloved by top riders, as well as regular horse-loving folks. Divided into five-acre lots, the community is currently made up of more than 50 percent equestrians. There is a trail behind each home which, taken together, form miles and miles of peaceful and serene riding trails. This particular Homeland residence, located next to the guard-gated entrance, has an open floor plan, soaring ceilings, four bedrooms, three baths and a den. The entire property is fenced and features beautiful equestrian amenities.

The single-story home is located on a brick-paved circle drive where, just across a sunny exercise field, an eight-stall barn with a full bath of its own awaits. The barn also has two covered wash stalls, an air-conditioned tack room, a feed room with a roll-up door and a laundry room. Overhead ceiling fans and a cupola offer maximum air flow, while a fly spray system adds an extra layer of comfort.

Kitchen: The home’s stunning black-and-white kitchen features a stainless steel double wall oven with a contemporary range hood, an oversized refrigerator, a farmhouse sink, a glass tile backsplash and quartz countertops. An island with a step-up top allows for seating on one side and food prep on the other.
Master Bath: The privacy wall behind this Jacuzzi tub hides a walk-through shower with dual showerheads. His-and-hers quartz-top vanities with sinks are located and to the left and right of the tub. Cool ceramic tile flooring extends throughout the house, with a wood plank look warming up the bedrooms.
Barn: The exercise field offers plenty of room for a jump arena or dressage ring. Hurricane-proof shutters on both the barn and house (as well as impact-resistant glass windows and doors) assure that the entire property locks up safe and sound while the residents are away.
Family Room: This cheerful, glassed-in area is the family room, where indoor activities will never detract from outdoor activities taking place in the riding area and barn.
Mudroom: Because the laundry room door exits not into the three-car garage but into the yard, it doubles as a mudroom. Shed those dirty clothes here and pop them right into the washer!
