Price Improved – Country Charm Meets Modern Luxury in Gated Irish Acres Now offered at $579,000, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath retreat sits behind the gates of Irish Acres in NW Ocala on nearly three-quarters of an acre, with manicured landscaping, landscape lighting, and a fully fenced backyard for privacy and play. Inside, the open-concept great room and kitchen were built for gathering — granite counters, a massive center island, stainless appliances, under-cabinet lighting, and a walk-in pantry. A custom wood accent wall in the breakfast nook and wood-beamed ceilings in the dining and great room add warmth you won't find in a builder-grade home. The split floor plan keeps the primary suite a private escape, with tray ceilings, two walk-in closets with custom finishes, dual vanities, and a walk-in shower. Thoughtful extras run throughout — custom pantry shelving, built-in storage in the hub room and laundry, ceiling fans, and window treatments in every room. Outside, unwind on the covered lanai overlooking the fenced yard, with irrigation, exterior lighting, rain gutters, a laundry utility sink, and extended garage storage. Minutes from Ocala, Gainesville, and I-75 — all the peace of country living, none of the drive-time trade-offs. With this price improvement, this move-in-ready home is a stronger value than ever.
