Lake County Florida Vacant Land

Before 1989, much of Lake County Florida was covered in citrus groves and vegetable farms. The back to back freezes of 1988-89, changed the economic landscape forever and opened large tracks of land to development. Many a former Lake County orange grove is now covered in single family homes, especially in South Lake where the opening of a new Florida Turnpike exit brought unprecedented growth and its close proximity to the Orlando theme parks brought jobs and economic opportunity.

Lake County contains many large parcels of vacant land and land prices are still relatively low. In addition, Lake County is becoming the new "Crossroads of Florida". The Florida Turnpike runs directly through Lake County and the new Wekiva Parkway will connect northern Lake with both I-4 and I-95. Currently under construction, this extension of the 429 expressway will bring visitors and commuters directly from I-4 to the door steps of Mount Dora and complete the final leg of an expressway that circles the entire perimeter of the Greater Orlando area. This change alone will open up North Lake County to development and its economic impact will create vast opportunities for investors and entrepreneurs.

Lake County, being 67 miles long from the Southern most tip to the Northern most tip, provides plenty of opportunities to acquire acreage, whether it is a 5 acre parcel or a tract of vacant land with hundreds of acres.
