About This Home
Tucked within the established Shady Wood neighborhood on the desirable SE side of Ocala, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath pool home offers nearly 1,900 square feet of living space on a generous 0.38-acre lot, creating a private setting where comfort and outdoor living come together.
From the moment you step inside, the home welcomes you with a layout designed for everyday ease and entertaining. Natural gathering spaces flow effortlessly from the living room into the kitchen and toward the sunroom, creating a home that feels both open and inviting. The living room serves as the heart of the home, with a fireplace offering a warm place to unwind or gather with family and friends.
Interior Finishes
The primary suite provides a peaceful retreat, highlighted by a beautifully updated bathroom featuring modern finishes and a sleek glass-enclosed shower. Secondary bedrooms have durability and style with luxury vinyl plank flooring, while the kitchen, bathrooms, and sunroom feature tile, creating practical and low-maintenance living throughout. Stainless steel appliances add a modern touch to the kitchen, making the space both functional and inviting.
Peace of Mind: System Updates
Major systems have already been addressed, including a roof replacement in 2017, an electrical panel upgrade to 150 amps in 2019, and a full HVAC replacement in 2020. These three updates represent the most expensive repairs a homeowner typically faces, and all three are done. The next owner can move in and enjoy the home without the near-term burden of major capital expenses.
The Neighborhood
Shady Wood is one of SE Ocala's most well-regarded established neighborhoods, known for its mature trees, spacious lots, and the kind of settled character that newer developments spend decades trying to replicate. The location places you close to downtown Ocala, shopping, dining, medical facilities, and major roadways, without sacrificing the quiet, private feel of an established residential area. Homes that combine this lot size, these system updates, and this outdoor living potential in SE Ocala rarely come available.

A Private Backyard Escape With Pool, Screened Lanai, and Room to Entertain
The outdoor living at this property is one of its strongest features. A screened pool enclosure, a generous lanai, and a 0.38-acre lot combine to create a private outdoor environment that is genuinely rare at this price point in SE Ocala.
Step outside and the property truly begins to shine. The oversized screened lanai and pool enclosure create a private outdoor escape designed for quiet morning coffee, weekend entertaining, or relaxing Florida evenings under the stars. The screened enclosure keeps insects out while keeping the Florida lifestyle in, making it a usable, comfortable space year-round rather than a seasonal one.
Beyond the enclosure, the 0.38-acre lot provides genuine yard space on all sides, with the mature trees and established landscaping of the Shady Wood neighborhood giving the backyard a natural privacy that new construction simply cannot offer. Pool equipment is operational, and the pool is ready to be customized to the new owner's taste.
The seller is offering a $6,200 credit at closing toward installation of a new pool liner, giving you full flexibility to choose the finish, color, and material that best fits your vision. Rather than receiving a seller-selected liner, you get the pool completed to your exact taste. Pool equipment is operational, so you are starting with a working system and a blank canvas for the finish you want.
Pool credit terms subject to contract negotiation. Verify all details with your agent and review seller disclosures prior to closing.
