Oakmont is a master-planned community in Southwest Gainesville, Florida, developed by ICI Homes and built around a central amenity campus with a clubhouse, resort-style pool and fitness center. Spanning several hundred acres and planned for roughly a thousand homes at build-out, Oakmont sits near Haile Plantation and the Town of Tioga, with the University of Florida, UF Health/Shands and major shopping all a short drive away.
Because Oakmont is a newer, still-growing community, buyers will find a mix of newly built and recently built homes from a number of respected area builders, along with resale homes as the community matures. Homes range widely in size, style and price, from comfortable family homes to larger custom residences, many set on tree-lined streets near parks and green space.
For buyers exploring homes for sale in Oakmont, understanding the community’s amenities, its homeowners’ association, and the differences between new-construction and resale homes matters just as much as comparing square footage and price. Rabell Realty Group helps buyers and sellers navigate Oakmont and the broader Gainesville and Alachua County real estate market.
Oakmont Real Estate: New Construction & Resale Homes
Oakmont offers both new-construction and resale single-family homes. Because the community is still being built out, buyers may be able to build a home from the ground up, purchase a move-in-ready or “spec” home already under construction, or buy a resale home from a current owner. Each path comes with different timelines, selections and considerations, and your agent can help you find what’s currently available.
Homes in Oakmont span a range of sizes, floor plans and architectural styles. When comparing properties, it’s worth looking beyond the purchase price to the builder, the age and condition of the home, the lot and its location within the community, and the homeowners’ association obligations.

What Is It Like Living in Oakmont?
Life in Oakmont centers on its amenity campus and an active, community-oriented lifestyle. The community was planned around a clubhouse, resort-style pool, fitness center, sports courts and gathering spaces, with an on-site activities director and community events helping bring neighbors together throughout the year.
Located in Southwest Gainesville, Oakmont offers convenient access to the University of Florida, UF Health/Shands, Butler Plaza, Celebration Pointe and Interstate 75, typically a short drive away depending on the exact location and traffic. Everyday shopping and dining are close at hand, with Publix, restaurants and the shops of nearby Haile Plantation and the Town of Tioga a short drive from the community.
Oakmont Amenities & Recreation
Oakmont’s amenities have included a clubhouse with a rentable gathering room, a beach-entry resort-style pool with lap lanes, a fitness center, tennis and basketball courts, a playground, an amphitheater and a multi-purpose activity field, along with an on-site activities director who organizes community events. Access to these amenities is typically included in the community’s homeowners’ association dues.
The community is also home to a sizable gopher tortoise preserve with a hiking trail, adding a natural amenity and green space within Oakmont. Amenities and their availability can change over time, so buyers who prioritize specific facilities should confirm what is currently open and included during their search.
Oakmont HOA: What Buyers Should Know
Oakmont is a deed-restricted community with a mandatory homeowners’ association. Association dues have commonly covered access to the community amenities — the clubhouse, pool, fitness center and recreational facilities — along with common-area and green-space maintenance and community management, though specific obligations can vary.
Before purchasing a home in Oakmont, buyers should review the applicable association documents, current assessments, budgets, covenants and any pending or approved special assessments, as well as any builder or new-construction considerations for a newly built home. Rabell Realty Group can help you request and review the right documents during the buying process.
Schools Serving Oakmont
Oakmont is served by Alachua County Public Schools. Addresses in the Oakmont area have commonly been associated with Chiles Elementary or Terwilliger Elementary, Kanapaha Middle School and Buchholz High School. School assignments are made by specific property address and can change over time, so verify the current attendance zones for a particular home directly with Alachua County Public Schools before making a decision based on schools.
Oakmont Home Prices & Market Trends
Home prices in Oakmont vary by home type, builder, age, square footage, lot, condition, finishes and whether the home is new construction or resale. Because the community includes a range of homes and continues to grow, an overall average price doesn’t always reflect the value of an individual property.

Buying or Selling a Home in Oakmont
Whether you’re weighing a new-construction build against a resale home, or comparing Oakmont with other Southwest Gainesville communities, the specific home, builder, lot and location within the community can make a meaningful difference in your search — in amenities, timeline and price.
For sellers, pricing an Oakmont home takes more than looking at a community-wide average. Comparable sales should reflect your home’s builder, age, size, condition, finishes, lot, association obligations and the features that set it apart from competing listings and new-construction inventory.
