Property Description
Set on 16.7 rolling acres just 7 miles from I-20, this rare estate transforms a former elementary school into a versatile equestrian and multi-functional property offering over 37,000 square feet of space across multiple buildings.
The expansive main building blends historic charm with modern amenities, featuring 7 flexible rooms ideal for bedrooms, offices, or studios. A private one-bedroom apartment with a full kitchen offers comfortable onsite living. Two former classrooms have been converted into a spa area with an indoor hot tub and spa pool (may convey). A full-size gymnasium includes a professional basketball court, bleachers, locker rooms, and a concession stand. Two kitchens, six bathrooms, and 10 individual showers support large groups or commercial use. Dedicated office space and preserved classroom architecture add character.
The secondary building is designed for horse lovers with 7 extra-large stalls, 2 bathrooms, rustic living quarters with pine-accented walls, a full kitchen, game room, bunk room, tack room, and spacious hay storage. Additional concrete-floored barn stalls increase boarding capacity.
Outdoor features include a spring-fed stocked pond, abundant wildlife, agricultural workshop with bathroom, secure Ponderosa fencing with electric gate, asphalt circle drive for easy access, and a five-foot no-climb fence enclosing the rear pasture.
This exceptional property is ideal as a luxury equestrian center, rehabilitation facility, sports camp, retreat venue, or multi-family rural homestead. Offering a unique blend of history, function, and expansive space, 15520 Hwy 9 is a rare investment opportunity.
