Brooksville, Florida
Welcome to Cabot Citrus Farms, Cabot’s first American property in its diverse collection of world-class golf and master-planned communities.
Located in the central-west region of Florida, aptly known as the Nature Coast, Cabot Citrus Farms is set across 1,200-acres of pristine natural beauty. Boasting dramatic elevation changes, sandy soil, and rolling hills canopied by towering sand pines, palmetto trees, and century-old moss-covered oaks, the unique landscape is truly enchanting. Previously known as World Woods Golf Club, the newly acquired Cabot property will re-emerge as a vibrant destination known for incredible golf and world-class real-estate, surrounded by a serene natural landscape.
Cabot Citrus Farms is set to open in 2023 with two 18-hole golf courses, a par-3 course, a new 9-hole course, a new clubhouse and an unparalleled practice facility. In addition to golf, the property will offer luxury accommodations, real estate, food and beverage offerings, and amenities.
The Perfect Location for Cabot’s First U.S. Property
Tucked between state forests and nature reserves in the central-west region of Florida, aptly known as the Nature Coast, Cabot Citrus Farms is perfectly situated to enjoy laid-back southern living, while in convenient proximity to major urban centers. The property and surrounding areas embody a comforting feel complete with a notable change of pace. When you are ready to speed things back up, whether to catch a flight, a sports game, or a little nightlife, Tampa and Orlando are both a short drive away at 50 and 80 minutes respectively.
Nestled in a serene and peaceful environment, a collection of two- and four-bedroom residences provide an intimate and cozy atmosphere for those who wish to call Cabot Citrus Farms home.
Composed of world-class luxury residential, resort, and golf destinations, The Cabot Collection includes Cabot Cape Breton in Nova Scotia, Cabot Saint Lucia in the Caribbean, Cabot Revelstoke in British Columbia, Cabot Citrus Farms in Florida, and Cabot Highlands in Scotland.
Those who inevitably fall in love with Cabot Citrus Farms and wish to call it home will have the opportunity to do so through a first-phase ownership offering of 36 cottages. With a collection of two- and four-bedroom residences, this initial release of real estate at Cabot Citrus Farms is rooted in comfortable, relaxed, easygoing living.
The cottages are situated all throughout The Village and offer a trio of distinct orientations: Homes along golf holes face the wooded splendor of nature; homes fronting Main Street embrace the lively camaraderie of passersby; and homes on the edge of the rambling open space permit you to easily step outside and join the fun. Be it a picnic, playdates, or tossing a ball around with your family, the green space at the cottages will allow you to enjoy the outdoors with your family and friends.

Florida Golf, Reimagined
With a natural landscape destined for golf and unlike any other in the sunshine state, Cabot Citrus Farms features sandy soil, 80-foot elevation changes, and expansive natural waste bunkers. Generous rolling fairways are flanked by a unique mix of palm trees, towering sand pines, and one-thousand-year-old oak trees draped in enchanting Spanish moss.
Cabot Citrus Farms will open in late 2023, with world-class amenities including two revitalized 18-hole courses, a 21 hole short course, a new clubhouse and practice facilities with a putting course and driving range.
An 18-hole dynamic and forested layout designed by Kyle Franz, Cabot Barrens will feature rugged aesthetics with wide corridors of play, multiple routes to pins, classical green contours and unique grassing patterns. The course will include varied tee box placements to give players a fresh look at the different features each time they play the course. Thoughtfully planned, the course will reward creative short grass recovery shots around the greens.
Co-designed by Mike Nuzzo and Kyle Franz with Ran Morrissett as Golf Course Architecture Advisor, Cabot Oaks capitalizes on different environments: routing through the sandy, scrubby areas adjacent to Cabot Barrens, rolling meadows and even a 40-foot-deep sink hole. Cabot Oaks will be an 18-hole course encompassing broad fairways, flowering dogwood trees and groves of moss-draped live oaks. The course features ideal topography and soil composition augmented by stately live oaks peppered across the property. With plenty of variety, the course will provide a world-class golf experience for players of all skill levels. A rarity in Florida, the course includes repeated 50-foot elevation changes across the property. The design features elements inspired by Alister MacKenzie and his work at Augusta, in the Australian Sandbelt, and throughout California.
As an exciting challenge, architect Mike Nuzzo has embarked to fit as many great golf holes as possible into 100 acres. Without the restraint of convention, The 21 aptly features 21 holes, many of which are nontraditional half-par holes. A first for the industry, golfers will find a colorful variety of holes, layouts, lengths, strategies, shaping and green complexes. Standout holes include the breathtaking fourth and fifth holes, with the fourth resembling greens and landforms in Ireland, and the fifth reminiscent of the Sandbelt in Australia. The 21 can also be played as two short courses in between or after full rounds. Rough shaping has been completed, and irrigation installation and finish shaping have begun.
A community of its own, Cabot Citrus Farms will feature an abundance of accommodation options as well as a farm, shops, restaurants, fitness facilities, health & wellness amenities, communal gathering points and a farmer’s market. As with all Cabot properties, architecture throughout will feel ‘of the place’ – designed to complement the natural surroundings and reflect the local culture.
At Cabot Citrus Farms, endless adventure awaits. Surrounded by thousands of acres of state forests and Wildlife Management Areas, it’s clear why this region is known as ‘The Nature Coast’. Freshwater tributaries, crystal-clear rivers, rolling hills, and mature forests lend themselves to exceptional fishing, hiking, biking, canoeing, kayaking, paddle-boarding, scalloping and so much more.
