Roberts plans to develop the land as a dual-purpose property with a 200-acre equestrian complex and 400 acres of high-end residential development.

The land Brunetti sold to Roberts, zoned primarily for agricultural use, is located near the Golden Ocala Golf & Equestrian Club.

Roberts’ purchase was his latest property acquisition in a recent series, mostly parcels south of the Golden Ocala Golf & Equestrian Club.

The Ocala Star Banner reported that Roberts has paid $28.74 million since last summer to acquire about 1,600 acres. [Ocala Star Banner] – Mike Seemuth
