For more than 50 years, Curington Homes has built custom homes across Central Florida — and Ocala is where our story began. Known as the Horse Capital of the World, Ocala offers something few places in Florida can: rolling pastures, championship horse farms, a historic downtown, and the world-class World Equestrian Center, all less than a hundred miles from both coasts and Orlando. Whether you’re dreaming of a luxury estate on acreage, a classic country home for your family, or a refined craftsman in an established neighborhood, our in-house design and build team will craft a home that fits your land, your lifestyle, and your budget.
Ocala sits at the center of Marion County's world-renowned horse country, surrounded by rolling pastures and championship thoroughbred farms. It's a rare setting that pairs wide-open land and natural beauty with the conveniences of a growing city.
Ocala is home to the World Equestrian Center, one of the largest equestrian complexes in the world. Beyond the competitions, it brings year-round dining, shopping, and events that have made Ocala one of Central Florida's fastest-growing destinations.
From multi-acre farm parcels to estate lots—many with no HOA restrictions—Ocala gives you space for a barn, a pool, a workshop, a guest house, or simply privacy. A custom home lets you take full advantage of whatever land you choose.
Located less than a hundred miles from both coasts and Orlando, Ocala keeps the beaches and big-city attractions a short drive away while you enjoy the comforts of a quieter, more spacious way of life.
Whether it's orienting living spaces toward your pasture views, designing a screened lanai built for the climate, or planning an outdoor kitchen for entertaining, your home is shaped around how you actually live in Ocala.
Building custom in Ocala means your home is designed around your land and your life—not pulled from a catalog of production floor plans. Every detail reflects your vision.
We offer a personal touch, working with you to design a home that meets your dreams, needs, and desires. We have in-house designers and draftsmen to help design and build your custom home from the ground up. Get a custom home crafted for your family’s unique personality and goals.
Building a custom home involves thousands of details, but we’ll take care of organizing and scheduling all of these, ensuring it’ll get done right, on time, and within your budget. We’ve personally built over 1000 homes since 1972 and have long standing relationships with fantastic subcontractors and material vendors.
A Curington home means a quality home, which starts from the ground up. We combine our 50+ years of homebuilding experience with your vision to make your dream home a reality. This level of experience has given our team the knowledge and know-how to build your home to extremely high-quality standards that, in many ways, highly exceeds standard code requirements.
We stand behind our homes with a 10-year structural warranty through “2-10 Home Buyers Warranty”. The 2-10 HBW also includes a one-year workmanship warranty for things such as roof covering, cabinets, flooring, paint, and more, plus a two-year systems warranty for items such as plumbing, electrical, and mechanical. You can feel confident knowing your home is protected for a full 10 years!

Yes—Ocala is our home. Curington Homes has been building custom homes in Ocala and Marion County for more than 50 years, with over 1,000 homes completed across Central Florida. Every home is fully custom and built on your lot.
Absolutely. Most of our Ocala clients build on their own land—whether it’s a multi-acre farm parcel, an estate lot, or a homesite in an established neighborhood. We start with a site evaluation to determine the ideal placement and design for your property.
Yes. We design homes that take full advantage of larger parcels and farm properties—thoughtful placement for privacy and pasture views, plus the room to add a barn, pool, workshop, or guest house. We’re well versed in the well, septic, and site considerations that come with rural Marion County land.
Cost depends on the size of the home, finishes, and your lot’s conditions (acreage, well/septic, clearing, and access). The best first step is a consultation, where we’ll align your vision with a realistic budget before design begins.
Design and planning typically take several weeks to a few months, and construction generally runs 6–12 months depending on size, complexity, and site conditions. We keep the process organized and transparent at every stage.
We build fully custom homes in a range of styles, including luxury, craftsman, country, farmhouse, and ranch, plus specialty additions like pool houses, in-law suites, and custom barns.
Yes. If you haven’t purchased your property yet, we can help you evaluate potential lots—whether it’s acreage in horse country or a homesite closer to town—so you know how a site’s shape, access, and soil will affect your build before you buy. Our affiliate, Curington Realty, can also assist with finding the right property in the Ocala area.
Absolutely. Every Curington home is engineered to meet or exceed Florida’s building and wind-load codes. We can also integrate features many Ocala homeowners ask for, like impact-rated windows and whole-home generator systems, for added peace of mind during storm season.
