Executive Summary

This premier opportunity presents an exceptional chance for national or regional homebuilders to tap into two highly desirable single-family development projects in DeFuniak Springs. Located in the flourishing Florida Panhandle region, the developments include a full set of approved engineering design plans, which are fully entitled, with a development order already in place. The projects encompass Wildwood Lakes Phase I and II, featuring 90 acres of prime development land. This phase allows for the construction of 55 single-family homes on spacious sites of over 1 acre each. Additionally, McCarthy Estates offers 7.5 acres of premium land for 29 individual home lots.

While the land remains raw and will require infrastructure development, its strategic location ensures swift access to essential amenities and connections. Residents will benefit from proximity to employment and recreational hubs, with Destin and Fort Walton Beach less than an hour away and Tallahassee, Mobile, and Panama City within a two-hour drive. Convenient access to Interstate 10 and the historic downtown DeFuniak Springs area further enhances the appeal, while the picturesque Emerald Coast beaches and State Road 30A roadway are roughly 30 miles from the sites.

The region has abundant natural beauty, including clear, cold water springs and white sand beaches, offering endless outdoor recreation opportunities. The nearby Eagle Springs Golf and Recreation Park is 5 miles away, accessible via US Highway 90. The area also boasts high-quality shopping and dining options, with major national retailers such as Walmart Supercenter, Winn-Dixie, Lowe's, Walgreens, and Starbucks within 10 miles.

With a population of over 28,000 within a 10-mile radius, growing at an average annual rate of 3.1% since 2010, and single-family homes comprising 74% of local housing, this development opportunity is positioned to meet the rising demand for new housing in this thriving community.
