Resting within the often sought-after community of Village of Ascot Heath, this private end-unit villa is located less than two miles from the World Equestrian Center. Offering a total of 2-bedrooms and 2-full and 1-half baths, the villa has had a variety of upgrades made throughout. The interiors are incredibly spacious and feature tall cathedral ceilings, new paint, wooden accents, and travertine flooring throughout. The kitchen has recently been redone and now features quartz countertops, brand new stainless steel appliances, and an adjacent dining area. The laundry area is tucked away just off of the kitchen, providing easy access and nice separation from the bedrooms. The main living area includes a cozy brick-facade wood-burning fireplace for cooler winter nights and large sliding glass doors out to the back patio, all overlooked by the kitchen for flowing conversation. The master suite is located on the first floor, and includes easy access out to the front, private courtyard with paver patio. The suite also includes walk-in closets with built-in shelving and a private en-suite complete with dual sinks and glass-door shower. The two full-bathrooms and additional powder room have been upgraded with new commodes, vanities, shower doors, and lighting. Upstairs is a large loft overlooking the main living area, as well as the secondary bedroom and the second full bath. To the back of the home is a large screen-enclosed lanai that provides ample space for seating and stunning views of the nearby Rees Jones designed Ocala National Golf Course. A detached 1-car garage is accessible via a covered breezeway, providing ample space for additional storage as needed. Additional updates to the home include new lighting, new stackable washer / dryer, new windows as of 2022, and AC replaced in 2013. WEC, HITS, OBS, and the Ocala International Airport are all located just a short drive away from the villa, as are a variety of shopping, dining, event, and medical options. This is a wonderful option for those looking for easy maintenance or seasonal living, as lawn and common area maintenance are included in the HOA fee. If you’re searching for a quiet home near some of the area’s most unique offerings, this is a wonderful option to consider.
