Frequently Asked

Common Questions About Selling Your Home in Citrus Springs

What is the median home price in Citrus Springs, FL?

Newer construction along the western edge of the plat ranges from $300,000 to $450,000. Homes near the country club command a 5 to 10 percent premium.

Are the lots in Citrus Springs really larger than other Citrus County communities?

Yes. The original 1960s Citrus Springs plat used quarter to half acre lots as a default, larger than the standard 60 by 120 foot lots common in Spring Hill and similar developments of that era. Buyers consistently note the breathing room. Larger lots also mean fewer neighbors per acre, a common reason buyers choose Citrus Springs over more dense communities.

Does Citrus Springs have an HOA or deed restrictions?

Most of the original Citrus Springs plat is unrestricted, no HOA, no deed restrictions on color, fencing, or vehicles. This is a major draw for buyers who want freedom on their property. Some newer subdivisions inside the broader Citrus Springs zip codes do have HOAs. Always verify the specific subdivision before contract.

What schools serve Citrus Springs?

Citrus Springs is part of Citrus County School District. Citrus Springs Elementary, Citrus Springs Middle School, and Crystal River High School are the main feeder schools. School ratings via GreatSchools and the Florida Department of Education vary by year. Citrus County also offers school choice options that allow students to attend other county schools with available capacity.

Citrus Springs to Tampa runs about 90 to 105 minutes via US 41 and the Suncoast Parkway. To Ocala via SR 200 the drive is 30 to 40 minutes. To Gainesville, about 70 minutes via US 41. Citrus Springs is geared toward retirees, remote workers, and Ocala based commuters more than Tampa commuters.
