Residential Land for Sale in Ocala, Florida

Note: This parcel is not currently buildable under its existing Future Land Use designation. Wooded 0.75-acre greenbelt lot in the established Marion Oaks subdivision, Ocala. Features 130' of frontage and 250' depth, zoned R1 but carries a Preservation (PR) Future Land Use designation — a Future Land Use Amendment would be required for residential development. Under the current designation, permitted uses are limited to passive recreational purposes such as public trails or parks; no fences or accessory structures are permitted. The last known amendment attempt for a Marion Oaks greenbelt was denied in 2006, as confirmed by Marion County Planner Jared Rivera, Growth Services Division. However, the parcel is completely surrounded by single-family homes including homes built in 2023 on adjacent lots, and Marion Oaks is considered one of Ocala's top growth corridors. Some buyers may view this as a speculative opportunity, though approval is not guaranteed. A Small Scale FLU Amendment fee is approximately $3,000, requires two public hearings, a certified survey, and a traffic impact analysis. Flood Zone X. Public water, sewer, and SECO Electric available in area. Buyer is encouraged to consult a qualified real estate attorney prior to purchase to evaluate feasibility and navigate the amendment process.
