We are thrilled to announce the successful closing on one of the most remarkable large-acreage land deals in Osceola County — 285 acres of prime pasture land along Holopaw Groves Road in St. Cloud, Florida. This exceptional property sold on October 23, 2024 for $975,000, representing a significant investment opportunity in one of Central Florida’s fastest-growing corridors.
Spanning two parcels totaling 285 acres, this expansive Central Florida land tract had been operating as productive pasture and was previously a thriving orange grove. The property features a remarkable 800-foot deep well equipped with a 12-inch turbine — a serious infrastructure asset for any ranching or agricultural use. The land is fully fenced and sits in the north-central region of Osceola County, positioned just south of US Highway 192 and west of US Highway 441.
What makes this Holopaw acreage stand out is its strategic location. Despite being accessed via a dirt road easement at the end of Holopaw Groves Road, this property sits within striking distance of some of Florida’s most important destinations — Orlando International Airport, Disney World and the broader Orlando entertainment district, and Melbourne Beach via a straight shot east on US 192. As Osceola County continues to grow outward from the Harmony community and St. Cloud, land like this is only going to become more valuable.
This property is a genuine blank canvas. Whether you’re a rancher seeking a sprawling private estate, an investor positioning for long-term appreciation, or someone envisioning a County park or conservation use — 285 acres in this corridor checks every box.

Mitigation Bank & Conservation Easement Potential
One of the most compelling — and increasingly valuable — aspects of this 285-acre Osceola County tract is its suitability for a wetland mitigation bank or conservation easement. With a significant portion of the property falling within AE and X flood zones, and with the presence of natural wetland features consistent with this Central Florida corridor, the land may qualify for mitigation credit generation under Florida’s Environmental Resource Permit (ERP) program. Landowners and investors seeking mitigation banking opportunities in Florida, or those looking to place acreage into a conservation easement with a land trust or government entity, will find this property’s size, hydrology, and location highly favorable. Florida mitigation bank credits are in consistent demand from developers and municipalities throughout the I-4 and US-192 corridors who need to offset wetland impacts — making this a strategically positioned asset for environmental land banking in Osceola County.
