Property Description

Here’s an opportunity to secure approximately 33 acres of prime land along one of Central Florida’s fastest-growing corridors! Comprising six parcels with an impressive ±1,426 feet of frontage on State Road 44, this property enjoys exceptional visibility just minutes from The Villages. An additional ±7-acre parcel (MLS #: G5053829) is also available, offering even greater potential for development. Currently zoned Agricultural, the property is ideal for future development. Annexation into the City of Leesburg, along with zoning and land use changes, would be required to fully realize its potential. Surrounding properties are zoned Industrial, and the Future Land Use designation of Urban Low Density provides flexibility for a variety of uses. The location is a standout—just five minutes from The Villages and Lake Deaton Plaza, featuring Publix, Walgreens, and the newly opened Hooters. A new Walmart Supercenter is nearing completion, enhancing the area’s commercial appeal. Downtown Leesburg is 10 minutes away, with easy access to US Hwy 27 and the Florida Turnpike to the west, placing Orlando just an hour away and Tampa within 90 minutes. Whether you're planning to develop, invest, or hold, this property offers strategic positioning in a thriving market with strong commercial and residential demand. Contact us today to explore the possibilities.
