About 7780 N Whippoorwill Terrace

Welcome to Eagle’s Rest Equestrian Estate – A Premier Horse Country Retreat! Nestled just 22 miles from the World Equestrian Center and the vibrant heart of Ocala, this exceptional estate offers the ultimate in equestrian living. Enter through a picturesque drive lined with grand oaks and classic 4-board fencing, and you’ll immediately sense the beauty and tranquility of this one-of-a-kind property. As you approach the main residence, you’ll pass the impressive 35-stall barn—just one of the estate’s standout features. Inside the custom-built home, soaring pine ceilings, a dramatic 23-foot fireplace, and polished cherry wood floors set the stage for both elegant entertaining and relaxed country living. The spacious living area includes built-in entertainment, a wet bar, and a cozy loft, all framed by a wall of French doors offering stunning views of the aquifer-fed pond and gently rolling hills. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream with granite countertops, custom wood cabinetry, dual ovens, a large gas cooktop, and a convenient breakfast bar. Adjacent to the kitchen, a charming dinette and formal dining room both offer scenic views and artistic touches. The owner’s suite is located in a private wing, featuring two walk-in closets, a luxurious en suite bath with dual vanities, jetted tub, and walk-in shower. A connected office/sitting room with panoramic windows leads to the upper deck and pool area. Also in this wing is a flexible bonus room ideal for a gym, studio, or additional bedroom. The lower level offers two guest bedrooms with private baths, a game room, wet bar, and direct access to the pool, spa, and a pool house/studio. Outdoor living is just as impressive with an expansive upper deck, built-in grill, lanai with brick oven, cabana, and two spiral staircases for convenient access between levels. In addition to the main home, the estate includes a spacious 2,340 sq ft guest house, two separate 2-bedroom apartments, two barns with a total of 43 stalls, 19 turnouts, four fenced pastures, and miles of paved driveways and fencing. Recent upgrades include new asphalt roofs (2023) and state-of-the-art Trane 454B HVAC systems (March 2025), along with many more 2025 improvements too numerous to list. Eagle’s Rest is a rare opportunity to own a turnkey equestrian estate in one of Florida’s most sought-after horse country locations.
