Moving to Gainesville for professional, personal or educational purposes? You’ll need a new custom Florida home there, and we know exactly the place — Oakmont.
Oakmont is Gainesville’s top master-planned community. It boasts the top resident amenities, the most convenient location, and homes by Gainesville’s top builders. Plus, its size (550 acres) means no shortage of lots and floor-plan choices for future residents.
There are many reasons people are moving to Gainesville. It’s the hometown of the University of Florida and Santa Fe College. The UF Health system is one of the region’s top medical and research institutions, and Gainesville’s history, its downtown arts, dinning and culture scenes are renowned throughout north central Florida.
Don’t forget this region is home to some of Florida’s top outdoor recreation draws. Sparkling freshwater springs, and state parks and preserves keep enthusiasts busy every season with cycling, fishing, hiking and camping activities.
Here’s why Oakmont should be your choice in Gainesville.
Meet Oakmont
Oakmont is located on Gainesville’s booming southwest side, with easy access to Interstate 75, university campuses and museums, and downtown. It’s located at the southwest quadrant of the Parker Road and Southwest 24th Avenue intersection.
Alachua County public schools are right down the street. Celebration Pointe — a signature Gainesville-area shopping, entertainment and dining enclave, is only minutes east of Oakmont.
Four top builders in Gainesville — AR Homes, Barry Bullard Homes Inc., ICI Homes and Tommy Waters — offer everything from versatile one-and-two-level, single-family homes, to estate homes and complete custom creations.
Inventory homes are a strong selling point at Oakmont. These are popular floor plans designed with neutral, classic interiors and interiors, to appeal to the large possible number of potential buyers. Customers can choose from this always-changing selection, or have one of Oakmont’s builders erect a chosen floor plan on a chosen lot.
Pluses galore to explore
Maturity is one of the biggest benefits of building a new custom Florida home at Oakmont. The community has been open for several years and already has completed neighborhoods and phases. Many of your future new neighbors already are in residence.
The amazing community amenities also are fully available. Oakmont’s Residents Club features stunning social and meeting spaces, two resort-style swimming pools, a fitness center, event lawn, a playground, and basketball and tennis courts.
It’s all gorgeous and fully operational. Which means you can enjoy all of it the moment you move in rather than stare at a concrete hole in the ground and wait on those resort-style pools.
Oakmont also boasts an amenity that’s totally unique to the community. The Gopher Tortoise Reserve is a 46-acre slice of Oakmont terrain that protects its namesake — gopher tortoises — a species native to the southeastern U.S. The pedestrian-only Reserve features a two-mile trail through mid-Florida forests and grasslands.
And, lest anyone need more amenity options, an onsite lifestyle director oversees a busy calendar of seasonal festivals, family movie nights, and much more for community enjoyment.
