The Fessenden Elementary zone sits on Ocala's west side, in the part of Marion County where wide lots and horse-country quiet still shape daily life. Families here move between the neighborhood elementary and the larger campuses nearby — this attendance area feeds toward WEST PORT HIGH SCHOOL and LIBERTY MIDDLE SCHOOL, with DUNNELLON HIGH SCHOOL and adult programs at the Community Technical & Adult Education Center rounding out the options. It's a spread-out, unhurried corner of the wider Ocala market.

Right now there are 203 active listings with a median list price of $425,000, and the spread is dramatic — from $89,900 starter homes up to a $9,500,000 estate. Homes are taking a median of 58 days to sell, and sellers who close are getting about 97% of asking, so there's room to negotiate without expecting a fire sale. With 54 new-construction listings and 53 gated properties on the market, buyers have real variety at both ends.

Fessenden Elementary School is an attendance zone in Ocala, Florida.
