Meadows
Homes for Sale in Citra, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Meadows sits in Citra, up in the rural north end of Marion County, and the current MLS snapshot is thin — no median price and no amenities are surfacing from active listings as of mid-2026. That means price here is driven by the individual property: acreage, condition, well and septic, outbuildings, and road frontage matter far more than any neighborhood premium.
For a buyer, the practical takeaway is that you evaluate each home on its own terms rather than against a deep pool of comparable sales. For a seller, thin data cuts both ways — there is little to anchor an appraisal, so condition, land, and clean documentation do the heavy lifting on price.
The 60-Second Overview
Meadows market snapshot (as of August 21, 2026): the median sale price is about $150K ($118 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 39 days on market for closed sales.
Meadows is a small Citra pocket in northern Marion County where the rural setting and the specifics of each parcel define value more than any shared community feature — no amenities show up in current listings.
Who Meadows is best for.
Best for
- Buyers seeking rural acreage in Citra who accept a longer drive to services
- Buyers comfortable evaluating well, septic, and land condition on their own
- Cash or well-qualified buyers who can move on a property without a deep pool of comps
Probably not for
- Buyers who want maintained community amenities like pools or gated entries
- Buyers who need walkable errands and a short commute
- Buyers who rely on tight, plentiful comparable sales to justify an offer
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending August 21 of each year, from record-level Stellar MLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($150K) IS the median in the snapshot above.
Windows contain 0 to 4 sales each (4 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings. Based on Stellar MLS data distributed by MLS GRID for the period 2010 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The Meadows buying strategy.
If we were buying in Meadows today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Meadows.
A land-first read
Citra is a rural crossroads in the north of Marion County, and that geography sets expectations: more space, longer drives, and homes that trade on land and condition rather than on shared amenities. No community amenities were identified in current MLS listings, so buyers should not expect gated entries, pools, or maintained common areas to be part of the pitch here.
Because the data is sparse, both sides benefit from doing the legwork. Confirm water source, septic, easements, and outbuilding permits early. On the pricing side, expect a wide spread that reflects each property's acreage and shape rather than a tidy per-neighborhood number.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Meadows. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
Thin markets reward local legwork. We dig into each parcel — utilities, access, land use, and the true condition of the structures — instead of leaning on a comp count that does not exist yet in Meadows. That is the difference between a defensible offer and a guess.
