Investment Highlights

  • 305-acre parcel with 92 acres deemed developable.
  • Located across from Meritage Homes’ Silver Lakes community with utilities extended to the entrance.
  • Positioned within an active development corridor featuring national homebuilders.
  • Current zoning allows 1 unit per 5 acres; potential rezoning could allow up to 4 units per acre.

  • Approximately 45 minutes from Orlando International Airport and 38 minutes from Walt Disney World.

Executive Summary

This rare 305-acre land offering along HWY 557 in Polk City, Florida, presents a significant development opportunity in one of Central Florida’s fastest-growing corridors. Currently zoned for agricultural use, the property allows for one dwelling unit per five acres, yielding approximately 20 lots under existing conditions. However, its adjacency to Polk City creates a clear path for annexation and rezoning to Village Residential, which permits up to four units per acre. This change could unlock the potential for approximately 408 residential units, dramatically enhancing the site’s value and development scope.
The property benefits from its strategic location, just 45 minutes from Orlando International Airport and under 40 minutes from Walt Disney World. HWY 557 is slated for expansion to a four-lane roadway, with construction beginning in summer 2025, further improving accessibility and traffic flow. A roundabout and a five-acre retention pond are also planned, supporting future infrastructure needs. Surrounding development activity is robust, with major builders such as Meritage Homes, Pulte, DR Horton, and American Homes actively building in the area. Utilities, including water and sewer, are being extended nearby by external developers, reducing upfront costs for future projects. This offering represents a compelling opportunity for residential developers seeking scale, connectivity, and long-term growth potential in Central Florida.
