Your list is looking like a good start.
Horses?
You need: a barn, hay supply, farrier three or four times each year, depending upon the ground
and vet. For pasture you should have an acre or two per animal, depending upon the amount of moisture, which affects grass growth. We went all in on electric fences. They are 1/4" braided rope with copper strands woven in. Relatively maintenance free. Posts should be pressure treated with about 30' spacing. Some horses get along well with miniature donkeys. Goats were put on this earth to cause insanity.
