About this property

One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged, AI generated or rendered. Deep in the rolling oak hammocks of Citra, Florida — minutes from the World Equestrian Center and the beating heart of Ocala's world-famous horse country — sits a compound so rare that most buyers will never even hear it exists before it's gone: a private, FAA-approved 3,000-foot grass airstrip, and 174± surveyed acres of fenced pasture and hardwood, all wrapped behind a single gated entry, with 2,800' of road frontage!. Paniola Air Ranch isn't a property. It's a lifestyle most people only dream about — and it's now available to one buyer who refuses to compromise. Build your dream home here! The Property features two miles of walking trail. Fully fenced with board fencing and controlled steel gates, the property is turnkey for a serious equestrian or cattle operation — and it sits inside the single most valuable horse-farm zip code in America. Marion County is home to more than 700 horse farms and 450+ thoroughbred operations, anchored by the World Equestrian Center, whose presence pumps an estimated $4.3 billion a year into the local economy. Buyers aren't just acquiring acreage here — they're buying into the address that the entire equestrian world already recognizes. A PRIVATE FAMILY COMPOUND FLY IN. NEVER LEAVE. This is the feature that stops people in their tracks: a 3,000' × 100' FAA-approved turf runway — FAA designation FD14 — engineered for real private aviation. Land your own aircraft on your own private airstrip, and be home before the engine cools. From this single strip, virtually every corner of Florida — the coasts, the Keys, Orlando, Tampa, and Jacksonville, sit within about one hour's flight. For the aviator who has always wanted an estate built around the runway instead of squeezed beside one, this is as close to unicorn as Central Florida real estate gets. Road Access 4,000'+ paved private road from gated entry to runway Land Fenced pasture, mature live oak & hardwood, ponds & nature preserve Three-bedroom caretaker residence 5,000 SF hangar/maintenance building with two studio units Location 12 mi to Ocala · ~30 min to World Equestrian Center · ~30 min to Gainesville/UF WHY NOW ? Marion County's market is on fire — the past year has seen sizable equestrian estates across Marion County command premium pricing, with luxury horse-farm listings in the 190–400± acre range routinely asking $7M–$9M+ and legacy ranches drawing national attention. Fly-in estates are vanishingly rare — an FAA-approved private runway paired with equestrian-ready acreage is a combination almost never offered publicly — most trade quietly, off-market, among aviation and horse-world insiders. Demand spans multiple buyer pools — pilots, equestrian operators, family offices, hunting-land buyers, and conservation groups are all active in this market right now — Paniola Air Ranch is positioned to draw them all at once.
