Prime M-2 Industrial Opportunity in North Ocala! Positioned in Ocala's thriving northern industrial corridor, this exceptional 4.42± acre M-2 zoned property offers outstanding potential for a wide range of industrial, commercial, and outdoor storage uses. The site includes a 1,264± square foot site-built residence that presents an excellent opportunity for conversion into office space, a showroom, customer reception area, or other business-related uses. Boasting approximately 624 feet of frontage along NW Gainesville Road, the property provides excellent visibility and accessibility with convenient access to Highway 326 and close proximity to Highway 301, Interstate 75, and other major transportation routes, making it ideal for distribution, service operations, contractors, manufacturing, and industrial users. The existing structure features durable CBS construction, a metal roof, and a newer air conditioning system, creating a solid foundation for redevelopment or adaptive reuse to fit your business needs. Of the total acreage, approximately 3.08 acres lie outside of the flood plain, with approximately 1.34 acres located within the flood plain, providing ample usable land for future improvements and development opportunities. Rarely do industrial parcels with this combination of zoning, visibility, road frontage, and existing improvements become available in this rapidly growing market.
Northwest Ocala, located between State Road 40 and U.S. 27, is a residential and civic Ocala neighborhood with leafy blocks and a strong equestrian edge. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the SR 40 corridor near the I-75 interchange, where travel plazas, local diners, and service storefronts set a steady, on-the-move rhythm. Golden Ocala Golf & Equestrian Club and the Ocala Jockey Club anchor the area’s horse-country identity, while the World Equestrian Center adds a polished, event-day buzz. Streets shift from newer subdivisions to larger-lot properties with pasture views and long driveways. Daily life orbits around trailheads, fairgrounds, and big-sky sunsets over open land.
