About this home
9601 SW 65TH PLACE
One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. **NEW ROOF--WARRANTY TRANSFERS** Solar Removed! Nestled within one of Ocala’s most sought-after 55+ communities, this residence delivers more than beautiful design, it offers a lifestyle you intentionally choose. You wake naturally as soft morning light filters through windows, the air calm, the day unhurried. You notice neighbors passing by, some heading out for a walk, others toward the golf course, all moving with that easy confidence. As you step into your day, you realize how effortless life can be here. A refreshing swim, a fitness class, or a game of pickleball fits naturally into your routine. Lunch becomes a reason to connect at the onsite restaurant, and afternoons turn into new interests as you find yourself drawn into one of the many clubs and social gatherings that give this community its warmth and energy. Everything feels welcoming, familiar, and vibrant. Inside, the home supports that same sense of ease. The open kitchen becomes the natural gathering point, where conversations unfold, laughter carries, and entertaining feels effortless. The walk-in pantry keeps life organized and uncluttered, while the spacious layout allows each area to flow exactly as you need it to. Bedrooms afford a peaceful privacy, the flex room quietly adapts to your lifestyle, whether that’s work, creativity, or quiet focus, and the extended lanai invites you outside, where mornings start slower and evenings linger longer under the Florida sky. Perfectly positioned to feel serene yet connected, this is a place where neighbors quickly feel like friends, where days feel intentionally lived, and where life feels lighter without trying.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
