Foxbrook Parrish FL – Acreage Homes & Community Guide
Foxbrook is a custom home community in Parrish, Florida with 1 to 5 acre lots, peaceful nature views and plenty of room for RVs, boats and outbuildings. This is your complete local guide to living, buying and selling in Foxbrook.
What makes Foxbrook different from other Parrish neighborhoods
If you are looking for wide open space instead of zero lot line living, Foxbrook should be on your short list. Large custom homes, mature landscaping and low density give the neighborhood a quiet, rural feel while still keeping you close to shopping, schools and the interstate.
Foxbrook is an acreage community tucked along County Road 675 in Parrish, Florida. Instead of rows of near-identical houses, you find custom-built homes, long driveways and plenty of room between you and your neighbors. Lots are typically one acre or more, with some parcels closer to five acres, which is rare in this part of Manatee County.
Many homes were built from the early 2000s onward, with a mix of classic Florida architecture and newer estate-style properties. You will see side entry 3 car garages, barns, workshops and outbuildings, along with fenced pastures, horse-friendly areas and private ponds. It is a good fit for people who want to spread out but still be within a short drive of I-75, Lakewood Ranch, Bradenton, St. Pete and Tampa.
As your local Parrish Realtor who knows Foxbrook and the surrounding communities, I keep a close eye on new listings, price reductions and off-market opportunities so you do not miss the right home when it appears.
Country feel, outdoor living and room for everything you love
Foxbrook is not a resort-style community with a huge clubhouse. Instead, it focuses on land, privacy and practical amenities that support an active, outdoor lifestyle.
Everyday life in Foxbrook
Residents often choose Foxbrook because they need space: room for kids to play, a place to store a boat or RV, a workshop, or even small-scale equestrian use on certain homesites. Wide streets and long setbacks give the community a peaceful, low-traffic feel.
Evenings are for watching sunsets over pasture or lake views, walking the dog on the neighborhood trails, or hopping in the car for a quick drive to dinner and shopping along US-301 or at nearby North River Ranch.
- Low density, quiet streets and larger lots keep things peaceful.
- Plenty of room for boats, trailers and toys on many parcels (confirm rules for each property).
- Horse-friendly on certain sites with appropriate fencing and HOA approval.
- Strong sense of community among long-term residents.
Community amenities & trails
Foxbrook’s amenities are designed for people who love being outside. Instead of a formal clubhouse, you get practical spaces that encourage neighbors to gather and kids to burn off energy.
- Full basketball court and open soccer field.
- Playground with pavilion and picnic tables.
- Bike and walking paths that wind throughout the neighborhood.
- Nature and equestrian trails on and around the community.
- Several lakes for catch and release fishing.
If trails, space and starry nights matter more than a resort-style pool, Foxbrook is a strong fit.
Rural setting, minutes from US-301, I-75, shopping and schools
Foxbrook sits just east of US-301 off County Road 675, giving you a true country setting that is still convenient to Parrish, Ellenton, Lakewood Ranch, Bradenton, Tampa and Sarasota.

Median values and how they affect you
As of late 2025, Foxbrook’s median listing price sits in the low $1.1M range, with some properties closing well above that number when they combine acreage, upgrades and newer construction.
The broader Parrish market has also matured, with average sale prices in the mid to upper $400Ks depending on whether you look at new construction or resale homes. Foxbrook sits above the overall Parrish average because of its larger lots and custom builds.

- Architectural review for new construction, additions, barns and outbuildings.
- Rules regarding RVs, boats, trailers and horses that help preserve the neighborhood character while still allowing flexibility.
