AG-2 Zoning | Equestrian Estate | Redevelopment Opportunity in Alico Growth Corridor
A rare 10-acre offering within Lee County’s AG-2 zoning, allowing for a broad spectrum of high-value uses including equestrian operations, agricultural activities, residential estates, farm-based businesses, and potential future redevelopment. This property is ideally positioned for investors, developers, or owner-users seeking flexibility, scale, and location within one of Southwest Florida’s most active growth corridors.
The site supports equestrian facilities, livestock, crop production, private estates, guest housing, and accessory structures, while also offering strong potential for redevelopment or repositioning as surrounding commercial and residential expansion continues along the Alico Road corridor.
Located just 5 miles from Southwest Florida International Airport and minutes to Alico Road, the property benefits from proximity to I-75, major employment hubs, and continued infrastructure growth. Access is via a private gated entrance on North Mallard Lane, a paved private road with ownership extending to the centerline.
The 10-acre parcel consists of approximately 5 acres that are fully improved and 5 acres that remain buildable, providing immediate functionality with clear expansion potential. The entire property is uplands with no wetlands and is located in Flood Zone X, significantly enhancing usability and reducing development constraints. All existing structures are permitted and grandfathered. The improved compound includes a 5,385 square foot two-story Colonial-style residence built in 2008, along with multiple accessory structures totaling 9 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms. These improvements support a range of uses including multigenerational living, staff housing, or income-producing rentals. Construction includes both wood-frame and AAC block buildings for enhanced durability and efficiency, with average total utility costs of approximately $300 per month.
Equestrian infrastructure is fully established and operational, featuring:
3,780 square foot metal barn
2,160 square foot finished wood barn
Capacity for up to 10 horses
Riding arena and round pen
760 square foot pole shed
A 5,000 square foot former airplane hangar provides exceptional adaptability for commercial-grade storage, workshop space, vehicle or boat storage, or specialized operational use.
Additional site features include two natural ponds, mature fruit trees, a pool, multiple outdoor living areas, and a private residential unit above one of the barns, ideal for rental or caretaker occupancy. City water is available for future connection, further supporting intensified use or redevelopment.
This is a highly versatile asset positioned at the intersection of lifestyle, income potential, and future growth. Ideal for equestrian operators, agricultural users, investors, or developers seeking to capitalize on the continued expansion of the Alico corridor.
