What should Willoughby Acres home buyers in Naples, FL know first?
Willoughby Acres is one recorded plat of modest homes, most of them put up between the late 1960s and the 1990s. Every figure here comes from the county roll, county deeds or one MLS export, and each one names its source and its window. Recent county deed counts are small, so read each median beside its count and range.
One plat, one set of homes
Willoughby Acres is a neighborhood of single-family homes in North Naples, north of Immokalee Road in unincorporated Collier County, Naples, FL 34110. The 2026 county roll lists 400 parcels on the Willoughby Acres plat: 397 single-family homes and 3 vacant lots, with no common parcel on the plat.
That gives this page one set to work with. Every home figure below covers those 397 houses and nothing else. The 3 vacant lots keep a line of their own and never enter a home median or a home count. Plats that border the neighborhood, or that borrow its street names, get no share of any figure here, even when a listing describes them with the Willoughby name.
Keeping the set this narrow costs some volume. A wider net would produce bigger counts, but it would mix in homes from other plats with different lot sizes, different years and different price levels. A buyer comparing a Willoughby Acres house against the numbers here is comparing it against its own street grid.
Willoughby Acres county and MLS figures at a glance
The table below lines up the main counts and medians. County rows and MLS rows stay separate, and each row carries its own source and window.
| Willoughby Acres figure | Source and window | Value |
|---|---|---|
| County single-family homes | 2026 county roll | 397 |
| County vacant lots | 2026 county roll | 3 |
| County deeds | September 2025 through August 2026 | 10 at a median of $680,000 |
| County deeds | September 2024 through August 2025 | 18 at a median of $623,500 |
| County deeds | September 2021 through August 2026 | 73 at a median of $635,000 |
| MLS closings | October 29, 2026 export | 9 at a median of $710,000 |
| MLS active and pending | October 29, 2026 export | 2 active, 1 pending |
Read the rows across, not down. A county median and an MLS median come from different record sets over different windows, so setting one beside the other says little about whether prices moved.
How we counted Willoughby Acres
We tracked 10 qualified county deeds on the Willoughby Acres plat from September 2025 through August 2026, 18 in the prior twelve months and 73 across 60 months. A qualified deed is one the county property appraiser treats as an open market sale; transfers between relatives, to a trust or by court order drop out. Each deed was matched to a parcel on the plat, so a sale on a street of the same name in another subdivision does not count.
We tracked 18 MLS rows filed under the Willoughby Acres subdivision name in the October 29, 2026 export and set aside 6 of them that sit on other plats. The remaining MLS rows were joined to parcels on the plat by address. Only those joined rows feed the MLS table and the MLS bands further down.
Every county window runs from September through August. The county counts and the MLS counts are never added together.
What this page leaves out
Some numbers are missing on purpose. This guide does not print:
- a price for each unit of floor area, which swings hard on a small count;
- any forecast of where prices will go next;
- figures from plats next door blended into a Willoughby Acres median;
- a ranking against other neighborhoods;
- vacant lots inside any home count or home price.
Where a fact can only be settled by address, such as a flood zone, a school assignment or the utility provider, the page says so and points to the office that holds the answer.
What homes are for sale in Willoughby Acres, Naples, right now?
Only a few Willoughby Acres homes are on the market at any one time. The live search below pulls from the MLS by subdivision name inside a map box, and the October 29, 2026 export gives a fixed count to compare it with. Check every result's street and plat before you book a visit to the house.
Search the live listings
The MLS search label Willoughby Acres also reaches homes on other plats, so the search below pairs the label with a map box, and each result's street and plat still need a check.

The four searches update on their own through the day. The split price for the last two does not match any recorded county deed on the plat, so no single past sale tips a home into one search or the other. You can widen the hunt across the county on our property search.
Listings in the October 29, 2026 export
To give the live search a fixed reference, we pulled an MLS export on October 29, 2026. The same MLS export shows 2 Willoughby Acres listings active and 1 pending on October 29, 2026.
Three homes on the market out of 397 is a thin slice. On a plat this size, one new listing or one accepted offer changes the picture inside a week. Treat the export as a snapshot of a single day and the search above as the current view.
Both active listings in that export were priced inside the $600,000 to $699,999 band of the MLS price table below. The pending sale had not closed by the export date, so it does not appear in any closing figure on this page.
What the search label returns
The subdivision name in the MLS is typed by listing agents, and not every agent types it the same way. In the export, 6 of the 18 rows filed under the name turned out to sit on other plats. Some of those plats share street names with Willoughby Acres, and some carry the Willoughby name with a different ending.
The map box trims most of those strays but cannot catch all of them, since a few separate parcels sit inside the same outline. When a result looks right, check two things: the street, and the legal description on the county property appraiser record. The legal description names the plat, and that settles the question.
Questions to ask before a showing
A short call to the listing agent can save a wasted trip. These questions fit an older house on this plat:
- Does the legal description name the Willoughby Acres plat?
- What year was the house completed, and what has been replaced since?
- How old are the roof, the air conditioning and the water heater?
- Were any additions, pool work or enclosures permitted with the county?
- Is there an elevation record on file for the house?
- Who provides water and sewer, and can you see the last bills?
- Does the seller hold a homestead exemption today?
Write down each answer. They feed straight into the offer and the inspection list.
Where is Willoughby Acres in North Naples, FL 34110?
Willoughby Acres sits north of Immokalee Road in North Naples, in the 34110 ZIP code. It lies outside the Naples city limits, so Collier County handles its zoning, permits and code matters. Eight streets run through the plat, and each of those street names also turns up on other plats nearby.
North of Immokalee Road in unincorporated Collier County
The neighborhood is in unincorporated Collier County. None of the 400 parcels is inside the Naples city limits. Building permits, zoning questions and code complaints go to the county, not to City Hall.
All 400 parcels share the 34110 ZIP code. Immokalee Road to the south is the main east to west road that most trips start from. Distances to shops, the hospital and the beach appear in the route table later on this page.
Eight streets on one plat
The plat holds eight streets: Erie Dr, Johnnycake Dr, Kirtland Dr, Madison Dr, Mentor Dr, Wickliffe Dr, Willoughby Dr and Willowick Dr. Most lots on them sit near the plat's median of about a quarter acre.
Those eight names are not unique to the plat. Separate subdivisions nearby use some of the same street names, so an address on Mentor Dr or Kirtland Dr might belong to a different plat with different records. A street table later on this page gives county figures for each of the eight streets, counting only homes on the Willoughby Acres plat.
Plats next door that are not counted
Willoughby Pines, Willoughby Place and Willoughby Preserve are separate plats, and their homes are not counted in any Willoughby Acres figure on this page.
Listings and websites sometimes describe one of those plats in terms that suggest a section of Willoughby Acres. On the county record they are different subdivisions with their own legal descriptions. Their homes appear in one labelled row lower on this page, set apart from every Willoughby Acres figure, so you can see them without mixing them in.
The parcels on the 2026 roll
Of the 400 roll parcels, 397 are single-family homes and 3 are vacant. The roll shows no shared tract, park parcel or retention parcel held in common on the plat. Every figure on this page therefore traces back to an individual house lot.
The county roll is a tax record, not a survey. It reports what the appraiser has on file for each parcel, including a main residence row, any pool or deck rows and the land area. A buyer should still order a survey for the specific lot.
What have Willoughby Acres homes sold for in county records?
County deeds give the plainest record of what Willoughby Acres homes changed hands for. County deeds show 10 Willoughby Acres home sales from September 2025 through August 2026 at a median of $680,000, from $520,000 to $759,000. With a count that small, read the range alongside the median.
County deeds on Willoughby Acres, September 2025 through August 2026
Each row below is one qualified county deed on the plat in the latest twelve-month window, listed by the month it was recorded.
| Recorded month (county deed) | Price | Year built | Base area | Street |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| County deed, September 2025 | $635,000 | 1979 | 1,465 sq ft | Mentor Dr |
| County deed, October 2025 | $607,000 | 1980 | 1,597 sq ft | Johnnycake Dr |
| County deed, November 2025 | $710,000 | 1972 | 1,758 sq ft | Erie Dr |
| County deed, November 2025 | $750,000 | 1987 | 2,041 sq ft | Erie Dr |
| County deed, January 2026 | $759,000 | 1983 | 2,023 sq ft | Madison Dr |
| County deed, February 2026 | $545,000 | 1975 | 1,655 sq ft | Willowick Dr |
| County deed, March 2026 | $650,000 | 1988 | 1,668 sq ft | Wickliffe Dr |
| County deed, April 2026 | $520,000 | 1987 | 1,582 sq ft | Johnnycake Dr |
| County deed, June 2026 | $753,000 | 1985 | 1,749 sq ft | Wickliffe Dr |
| County deed, June 2026 | $710,000 | 1985 | 1,668 sq ft | Willoughby Dr |
Seven of the eight streets recorded a deed in this window; Kirtland Dr did not. The top county price came on Madison Dr in January 2026 for a 1983 house with 2,023 square feet of base area. The low county price came on Johnnycake Dr in April 2026 for a 1987 house of 1,582 square feet. Size and year built alone do not sort these deeds by price; condition, updates and the lot itself sit behind the gap.
County deeds in the prior twelve months
In the prior twelve months, September 2024 through August 2025, county deeds show 18 Willoughby Acres home sales at a median of $623,500, from $460,000 to $875,000.
| Recorded month (county deed) | Price | Year built | Base area | Street |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| County deed, September 2024 | $585,000 | 1985 | 1,434 sq ft | Madison Dr |
| County deed, September 2024 | $875,000 | 2014 | 2,294 sq ft | Erie Dr |

| County deed, November 2024 | $460,000 | 1968 | 1,121 sq ft | Johnnycake Dr |
| County deed, December 2024 | $770,000 | 1984 | 2,115 sq ft | Willowick Dr |
| County deed, December 2024 | $600,000 | 1988 | 1,524 sq ft | Wickliffe Dr |
| County deed, January 2025 | $520,000 | 1978 | 1,268 sq ft | Mentor Dr |
| County deed, February 2025 | $630,000 | 1980 | 1,261 sq ft | Erie Dr |
| County deed, March 2025 | $798,100 | 1995 | 2,127 sq ft | Madison Dr |
| County deed, June 2025 | $732,500 | 1988 | 1,709 sq ft | Willowick Dr |
| County deed, June 2025 | $580,000 | 1996 | 2,164 sq ft | Kirtland Dr |
| County deed, June 2025 | $600,000 | 1979 | 1,733 sq ft | Mentor Dr |
| County deed, July 2025 | $635,000 | 1968 | 1,712 sq ft | Mentor Dr |
| County deed, August 2025 | $525,000 | 1971 | 1,677 sq ft | Willoughby Dr |
| County deed, August 2025 | $570,000 | 1973 | 2,091 sq ft | Mentor Dr |
The prior window held more deeds and a wider spread. Its top county price was a 2014 house on Erie Dr with 2,294 square feet of base area, the newest house among these rows. Its low county price was a 1968 house on Johnnycake Dr with 1,121 square feet. Mentor Dr and Willowick Dr each recorded four deeds in this window, more than any other street.
Why the twelve-month medians are midpoints
Each twelve-month county median falls between the two middle deeds of an even count, so neither $680,000 nor $623,500 is the price of one recorded sale.
With 10 county deeds, the median sits halfway between the fifth and sixth prices in order. With 18, it sits halfway between the ninth and tenth, which in the prior window were the county deeds of $617,000 and $630,000. A midpoint is a fair summary of the middle of a short list, but no buyer paid it, so it should not be quoted as the value of any one house.
Vacant lot deeds
None of the 3 vacant lots on the plat changed hands by a qualified county deed in the latest twelve months, the prior twelve months or the 60 months. Lots therefore add nothing to any deed count or median above. If one of them comes to market, its price will have no recent sale on the plat to measure against, and a buyer would look to the county record and a survey for the details.
How do five years of Willoughby Acres county deeds read?
Over the 60 months from September 2021 through August 2026, county deeds show 73 Willoughby Acres home sales at a median of $635,000, from $395,000 to $900,000. Five years give a steadier base than either twelve-month window, though each sale year still holds fewer than twenty deeds.
Sixty months of county deeds
The 60-month set gathers every qualified county deed on the plat in five September to August sale years. Those five years hold 18, 11, 16, 18 and 10 deeds, which add up to the 73 in the window.
Across those five years the county range runs from $395,000 at the low end to $900,000 at the top, both in the first sale year. A spread that wide on one plat reflects the mix of houses: homes of different sizes, build years and condition all trade under the same name. It is a record of what sold, not a price for any one house.
County deeds by sale year
Each row is one September to August sale year of county deeds.
| County sale year (September to August) | Deeds | Median | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| County 2021-09 to 2022-08 | 18 | $627,500 | $395,000 to $900,000 |
| County 2022-09 to 2023-08 | 11 | $665,500 | $525,000 to $789,000 |
| County 2023-09 to 2024-08 | 16 | $617,500 | $519,900 to $850,000 |
| County 2024-09 to 2025-08 | 18 | $623,500 | $460,000 to $875,000 |
| County 2025-09 to 2026-08 | 10 | $680,000 | $520,000 to $759,000 |
The county medians do not climb in a straight line. The 2022-09 to 2023-08 county year, with 11 deeds, came in at $665,500; the next county year, with 16 deeds, came in lower at $617,500. Swings of that kind are what a short list produces when a few larger or smaller houses happen to sell in the same year.
County deeds by window
This table sets the three county windows side by side, with the vacant lots on their own line.
| County set | Window | Deeds | Prices |
|---|---|---|---|
| County Willoughby Acres homes | September 2025 through August 2026 | 10 | median $680,000 ($520,000 to $759,000) |
| County Willoughby Acres homes | September 2024 through August 2025 | 18 | median $623,500 ($460,000 to $875,000) |
| County Willoughby Acres homes | September 2021 through August 2026 | 73 | median $635,000 ($395,000 to $900,000) |
| County vacant lots | every window on this page | 0 | no lot deed |
The 60-month window contains both twelve-month windows, so its 73 deeds include the 10 and the 18. The windows overlap; they are not three separate samples.
Reading thin counts
A median from 10 deeds can move a long way when a single sale is added or dropped. If the next house to close on the plat is a large one, the county median for the next window could jump; if it is a small original house, it could fall, with no change in what similar houses are worth.
Three habits help. Read the count before the median. Read the range before deciding what a house should bring. And compare a home with the deeds most like it in year built, base area and street, not with the median alone. A comparative market analysis built on the right handful of deeds will say more about one house than any summary line on this page.
What does the MLS show about Willoughby Acres homes in Naples?
The October 29, 2026 MLS export shows 9 Willoughby Acres closings in its twelve-month window at a median of $710,000, from $492,000 to $759,000. Those closings come only from MLS rows joined to parcels on the plat. The MLS window ends later than the county windows, so the two sets cover different months.
MLS closings in the October 29, 2026 export
The table lists the MLS figures for the joined Willoughby Acres rows on the export date.
| MLS figure, October 29, 2026 export | Willoughby Acres |
|---|---|
| MLS closings, twelve-month window | 9 |
| MLS median sold price | $710,000 |
| MLS sold range | $492,000 to $759,000 |
| MLS median days on market | 63 |
| MLS median living area, sq ft | 1,744 |
| MLS median sale to list price | 97.2% |
| MLS active listings | 2, median list $657,000 |
| MLS pending listings | 1 |
In the MLS export, the median closing took 63 days on market and sold at 97.2% of its last list price. MLS living area is entered by the listing agent and can include rooms the county does not count, so it is not the same measure as the county base area used elsewhere on this page.
MLS price bands
The bands sort the MLS active list prices and the past year's MLS sold prices into price ranges.
| MLS price band (export October 29, 2026) | Active list prices | Sold prices, past year |
|---|---|---|
| under $500,000 | 0 | 1 |
| $500,000 to $599,999 | 0 | 2 |
| $600,000 to $699,999 | 2 | 1 |
| $700,000 to $799,999 | 0 | 5 |
| $800,000 to $999,999 | 0 | 0 |
| $1,000,000 or more | 0 | 0 |
Five of the 9 MLS closings were in the $700,000 to $799,999 band, and none reached $800,000. Both active MLS listings sat in the band just below. No MLS closing in the export window reached $1,000,000 or more.
Sales that sit in both records
Most home sales on the plat leave two trails: a listing in the MLS and a deed at the county. Several MLS closings in the export match county deeds in the tables above by price, street and month, which is what one sale looks like when it shows up in both places.
That overlap is why the two sets should never be added together. Counting a house once as an MLS closing and again as a county deed would double it. On this page each figure names one set, county or MLS, and the matching sales stay inside their own tables.
Why county and MLS figures differ
The two sets differ for plain reasons. The county windows end in August 2026, while the MLS twelve-month window runs to the export date in late October. Some county deeds show sales that never went through the MLS, such as sales arranged directly between owners. Some MLS rows were set aside when their parcels sat on other plats.
Size is measured differently too. The county records base area from its own files; the MLS records living area as the listing agent enters it. Neither is wrong, but they are not interchangeable, and a gap between them on the same house is common. When a figure matters to your offer, ask which record it came from.
What do homestead and pool counts say about Willoughby Acres homes?
On the 2026 roll, 303 of the 397 Willoughby Acres homes carry a homestead exemption. Most houses on the plat are the owner's main residence. The roll also records a pool row on many of the homes, though a roll entry describes a structure on file, not its condition or the date it was last updated.
Homestead counts on the 2026 roll
A homestead exemption goes to an owner who lives in the house as a permanent residence. It lowers the taxable value and limits how much the assessed value can grow each year while the same owner holds the house. The count on the roll is a fair sign that most of these homes are lived in year round by their owners.
The exemption does not pass to a buyer. After a sale, the assessed value can reset toward market value, and the new owner applies for an exemption in their own name with the Collier County Property Appraiser. A seller's current tax bill is a poor guide to a buyer's first full bill; the tax section of this page shows worked examples.
Pools on the county roll
The 2026 roll shows a pool row on 222 of the 397 homes. A pool row is a building record the appraiser keeps for a structure on the lot, the same way it keeps rows for a screen enclosure, a deck or a spa.
A pool row is not a community feature; each pool belongs to its own lot. It also says nothing about when the house was built, since a pool, cage or deck added years later gets its own date on the roll. Ask the seller when the pool and its enclosure were put in, and whether the county issued permits for the work.
Where the windows end
Each record on this page stops at a set date. The county deed windows end with August 2026, so a sale recorded in September or October 2026 is not in any county table. The MLS figures stop at the October 29, 2026 export. The homestead, pool and parcel counts come from the 2026 county roll.
Anything that closed or listed after those dates will show up in the live search but not in the tables. For a current read, ask a Domain Realty Group agent to pull the latest closings for the plat.
What the counts do not show
Roll counts describe what is on file, not what a house is like inside. They do not show the condition of a roof or an air conditioner, whether a kitchen was redone, how the house handled past storms, or whether an addition was permitted.
Those answers come from the seller's disclosures, the permit history, an inspection and the insurance quotes for the specific address. To start on a specific house, or to compare Willoughby Acres with other Naples neighborhoods, contact our team and we will pull the records with you.
What homes are in Willoughby Acres, Naples?
Willoughby Acres holds one kind of home: detached single-family houses on one county plat in North Naples. The 2026 county roll counts 397 single-family homes, plus 3 vacant lots, spread over eight streets. Every home figure in this part draws on those 397 houses alone, so a count in one section lines up with a count in the next.
Single-family homes on one plat
The roll gives the plat a single product. There are no attached homes, no villa rows and no second line of a different home type to keep apart, so this page reads one set of houses from start to finish. Plans, finishes and the work done over the years vary from one house to the next, so two homes on the same street can be very different buys.
That single set makes the plat easier to read than many North Naples neighborhoods. A median on this page means the same thing in every section: the middle value across the 397 homes on the Willoughby Acres plat, taken from the 2026 county roll unless the sentence names a different source. When a seller, an ad or a report quotes a figure for the area, ask whether it covers only these 397 homes or reaches into the plats around them.
Vacant lots on their own line
The 3 vacant lots on the plat are counted on their own line and never inside a home figure, and no lot deed was recorded in any window on this page.
A vacant parcel has no residence row on the roll, so it carries no year built and no base area, and folding it into a home count would distort both. If one of these lots comes up for sale, treat it as a separate question from a home purchase. Ask for a current survey, any recorded restrictions in the title work, and the county's present rules for building on that parcel before you weigh an offer.
Streets on the county roll
The eight streets below are the ones the 2026 county roll lists on the plat. Each row is the county figure for the homes on that street only. Mentor Dr has the most homes, 62, and Willowick Dr the fewest, 41. The base area and lot columns are in square feet, the tax column is the median 2026 county bill, and the deed columns count county deeds on that street.
| Street (county roll) | Homes | Year built range | Median year built | Median base area | Median lot area | Homestead | Median 2026 tax | T12 deeds | 60-month deeds | 60-month median |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| County Mentor Dr | 62 | 1968 to 2007 | 1982 | 1,615 | 10,890 | 44 | $3,718 | 1 | 14 | $608,500 |
| County Johnnycake Dr | 57 | 1968 to 2011 | 1980 | 1,698 | 10,890 | 43 | $2,810 | 2 | 9 | $640,000 |
| County Erie Dr | 57 | 1968 to 2024 | 1986 | 1,686 | 10,890 | 42 | $2,732 | 2 | 10 | $680,000 |
| County Madison Dr | 53 | 1971 to 2005 | 1981 | 1,718 | 10,890 | 42 | $3,330 | 1 | 6 | $624,950 |
| County Kirtland Dr | 43 | 1972 to 2002 | 1979 | 1,774 | 10,890 | 35 | $3,141 | 0 | 6 | $652,500 |
| County Wickliffe Dr | 42 | 1968 to 2003 | 1987 | 1,779 | 12,197 | 30 | $3,112 | 2 | 11 | $650,000 |
| County Willoughby Dr | 42 | 1967 to 1996 | 1986 | 1,672 | 12,197 | 35 | $3,306 | 1 | 6 | $717,500 |
| County Willowick Dr | 41 | 1972 to 2001 | 1980 | 1,762 | 10,890 | 32 | $3,116 | 1 | 11 | $650,000 |
Read the deed columns with care. A street with one or two county deeds in the last twelve months has a price picture built on very few sales, and the 60-month median on a short street rests on a handful of closings. The rows are a way to see where the homes sit and how they differ by street, not a guide to what any one house will bring.
Lot sizes on the plat
Most lots on the plat are about a quarter acre. The lot column in the street table gives the county median for each street, and two streets, Wickliffe Dr and Willoughby Dr, show a somewhat larger median lot than the other six. Those are county figures from the 2026 roll, and an individual parcel can be larger or smaller, especially on a corner or at a bend in the street.
A lot size on a listing can differ from the county figure, and neither replaces a survey. Before you plan a pool, a fence, a shed or an addition, have the survey show the lot lines, any easements along the back or side of the lot, and the drainage path the county expects water to follow.
When were Willoughby Acres homes built, and how large are they?
The 2026 county roll puts the houses of Willoughby Acres between 1967 and 2024, with most of them dating from the 1970s and 1980s. Most houses have a modest main living space on a lot of about a quarter acre. The year built, decade and size figures below all come from the roll.
Year built on the county roll
On the county roll, Willoughby Acres homes were built from 1967 to 2024, with a median year of 1985, and 396 of the 397 were built before 2016.
The earliest year on the roll, 1967, belongs to a house on Willoughby Dr, and the latest, 2024, to a house on Erie Dr, as the year built ranges in the street table show. The median years by street run from 1979 on Kirtland Dr to 1987 on Wickliffe Dr, so no street stands far apart from the rest. A buyer looking here is, in nearly every case, looking at a house that has stood for several decades.
A year built on the roll is the year the county records for the main residence. It does not tell you when the roof, the windows, the air conditioning or the plumbing were last replaced. Those dates come from permits, receipts and the seller's disclosure, and they matter more to the condition of a house than the year it was first finished.
Decades on the county roll
The table counts the 397 homes by the decade of their main residence on the 2026 county roll, with the median base area for each decade in square feet.
| County decade (main residence) | Homes | Median base area |
|---|---|---|
| County 1960s | 9 | 1,169 |
| County 1970s | 137 | 1,668 |
| County 1980s | 199 | 1,680 |
| County 1990s | 37 | 1,921 |
| County 2000s | 12 | 2,184 |
| County 2010s | 2 | 2,179 |
| County 2020s | 1 | 2,562 |
The 1980s hold the largest share, 199 homes, and the 1970s come next with 137. The 1960s, 2000s, 2010s and 2020s together hold only a small number of houses. The 2010s and 2020s rows rest on 2 homes and 1 home, so their medians describe those few houses and nothing wider.
County base area
The county's base area, the roll's measure of a home's main living space, has a median of 1,709 square feet across the 397 Willoughby Acres homes, on a median lot of 10,890 square feet.
Base area is not the same as the living area on a listing. A listing may count space the county treats separately, and an addition finished without a permit may not appear on the roll at all. If the two numbers differ by much, ask the listing agent where the difference comes from and check the permit history with Collier County before you rely on either figure.
The street table shows a narrow spread in median base area from one street to the next, with Mentor Dr at the low end and Wickliffe Dr at the high end. A buyer comparing two houses on different streets is usually comparing homes of similar size, and the plan, the condition and the lot will often matter more than the street name.
How size reads across the decades
The decade table shows larger homes in later decades. The 9 homes from the 1960s have the smallest median base area on the roll, the 1970s and 1980s medians sit close together, and the 1990s and 2000s medians are larger again. The 1970s and 1980s hold most of the plat, so their medians describe the typical house here.
The later rows are small. The 2000s median rests on 12 homes, and the 2010s and 2020s rows rest on 3 houses between them, so a single house can set the figure. Read the decade table as a picture of what was built when, not as a rule that a later year built always means a larger house.
What do the records say about the history and zoning of Willoughby Acres?
The public record on Willoughby Acres is short. The county roll carries the plat name, 400 parcels and the years the houses were built, but we found no developer history and no published account of how the plat was laid out. Zoning comes from a listing, and the utilities need checking by address.
The plat on the county record
Willoughby Acres is a recorded plat in unincorporated Collier County, and the 2026 county roll ties 400 parcels to it. The roll's earliest year built, 1967, gives the first firm date in the record for a house on the plat. Everything after that comes from the year built column, house by house.
For a purchase, the recorded plat itself is the document that matters. It shows the lot lines, the street layout and any easements dedicated when the plat was filed. Your title company can pull a copy, and your surveyor will work from it. Read it alongside the title commitment rather than relying on a summary.
No developer on record
We did not find the name of a developer or a builder for Willoughby Acres in any source we checked for this page, and we do not guess at one. Listing remarks sometimes repeat a name or a story without a record behind it. Treat any such claim as unconfirmed unless a recorded document or a county file supports it.
What the record does show is that the houses went up over several decades rather than all at once. The decade table makes that plain: homes from the 1970s and the 1980s sit side by side on the same streets, and styles, sizes and materials differ from lot to lot. Each house needs to be judged on its own inspection and permits.
Zoning reported by a listing
A listing reports the lots as zoned RSF-3, a Collier County single-family district; confirm a specific lot with Collier County Growth Management before you plan any work.
We have not confirmed the district on a county zoning map for every lot, and we do not print setback or height rules here. Those rules decide where a pool, a garage, a screened enclosure or an addition can go. If you are planning work after closing, ask the county for the current rules that apply to the exact parcel, and have your contractor or design professional read them before you commit.
Water, sewer and power by street
Listings describe public water and sewer, but the provider is not the same on every North Naples street, so confirm the provider and the connection with the seller's bills.
We have not confirmed the water, sewer or electric provider street by street, so this page does not name one. A recent bill for each service is the simplest proof of who serves the house and that it is connected. If a house uses a well for irrigation or has any older system of its own on the lot, the inspection should cover it, and the seller's disclosure should say so.
What is near Willoughby Acres in North Naples, and how far is it?
Willoughby Acres sits north of Immokalee Road, with groceries, a hospital campus and shopping along the main roads around it. Our route table gives free-flow route miles from the centre of the plat to twelve places, from Immokalee Road to the regional airport. The figures carry no traffic and no travel time.
The route table
The table lists each place with its free-flow route miles from the centre of Willoughby Acres and a short note on what the row marks. The rows are ordered by distance.
| Place | Free-flow route miles | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Immokalee Road at Lakeland Avenue | 0.5 | route geometry only, not an entrance |
| Publix, Strand Boulevard | 1.6 | grocery, labelled by its road |
| I-75 on-ramp at exit 111 | 1.7 | table only: the first I-75 ramp on the free-flow path toward RSW |
| NCH North Naples Hospital, Health Park Boulevard | 2.3 | hospital campus |
| US 41 at Immokalee Road | 3.1 | route geometry only |
| Mercato, Strada Place | 5.1 | shops and dining |
| Vanderbilt Beach public access | 6.1 | public Gulf beach access |
| Waterside Shops, Tamiami Trail North | 7.3 | shops |
| Naples Airport (APF) terminal | 9.7 | general aviation airport |
| NCH Baker Hospital, downtown Naples | 11.8 | hospital campus |
| Fifth Avenue South, downtown Naples | 11.9 | downtown |
| Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) | 24.4 | regional airport |
Two rows mark points on the road, not destinations. Immokalee Road at Lakeland Avenue, about 0.5 free-flow route miles from the centre of Willoughby Acres, is where the measured path meets the main road; it is route geometry, not an entrance. US 41 at Immokalee Road is about 3.1 free-flow route miles from the centre of Willoughby Acres.
Vanderbilt Beach and the parks to the west
NCH North Naples Hospital is about 2.3 free-flow route miles and the Vanderbilt Beach public access about 6.1 free-flow route miles from the centre of Willoughby Acres, per the Domain Realty Group route table.
The beach row points to the public access at Vanderbilt Beach, west along Vanderbilt Beach Road. For the homes, sales and setting of that coastal area, see our Vanderbilt Beach neighborhood page. Check the county's current beach parking rules before a weekend visit.
Three other public places in the area are named here without distances, since the route table has no row for them: Cocohatchee River Park on Vanderbilt Drive and Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park toward the coast, and North Collier Regional Park on Livingston Road. Check each park's own page for hours, fees and what is open before you go.
Groceries, shops and the hospital
Publix on Strand Boulevard is about 1.6 free-flow route miles from the centre of Willoughby Acres in the Domain Realty Group route table.
For a wider choice of shops and restaurants, Mercato on Strada Place is about 5.1 free-flow route miles from the centre of Willoughby Acres, and Waterside Shops on Tamiami Trail North about 7.3. The NCH North Naples Hospital campus is on Health Park Boulevard; NCH Baker Hospital in downtown Naples is about 11.8 free-flow route miles from the centre of Willoughby Acres, and Fifth Avenue South about 11.9.
For flights, the Naples Airport terminal, a general aviation field, is about 9.7 free-flow route miles from the centre of Willoughby Acres. Southwest Florida International Airport is about 24.4 free-flow route miles from the centre of Willoughby Acres, reached by way of I-75, whose first on-ramp on the path appears in the table.
How the distances were measured
Each figure is a free-flow route distance along the public road network, from one point at the centre of the Willoughby Acres plat to one point for each place. Free-flow means the path ignores traffic, signals and time of day, so it is a distance, not a forecast of how long the trip takes.
Your own trip will start from your own house, not the centre of the plat, and may follow a different road. A house at the edge of the plat can sit a few blocks closer to one place and a few blocks farther from another. Use the table to compare places with each other, then drive the routes that matter to you at the hours you would use them.
What shared spaces and streets does Willoughby Acres have?
Willoughby Acres has no shared grounds of its own. The county roll shows no common parcel on the plat, the streets are public county streets, and the parks around it are county and state parks open to everyone. What a buyer gets is the house and the lot, so the lot itself deserves close attention.
No common parcels on the roll
No common parcel sits on the Willoughby Acres plat, so the neighborhood has no community amenities of its own.
That means no shared swimming area, no shared courts and no shared building to budget for or to use. Any pool or recreation space comes with an individual lot, if at all, and its upkeep falls on that owner. When a listing mentions a nearby park, check whether it is a public park off the plat, and look at the county record rather than a map pin.
Public county streets
The streets of Willoughby Acres are public county streets, as the research pack carried for this page records.
Collier County is the public body that answers for street work such as paving, signs and drainage in the right of way. If you have a question about a street, a swale or a culvert in front of a lot, the county's road and drainage offices are the place to ask, and a recent survey will show where the lot line meets the right of way.
Parks open to the public nearby
The parks that serve this part of North Naples are public. North Collier Regional Park, Cocohatchee River Park and Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park are open to the public under their own rules and fees. None of them sits on the Willoughby Acres plat, and none is tied to ownership of a home here.
When a listing or a map shows a park name close to the plat, confirm who owns the land before you count it as part of the setting. A park on county land follows county rules for hours and use, and those rules can change. A buyer who values a nearby park should visit it at the times they would use it.
Questions to ask about a lot
A lot in Willoughby Acres is the main thing you buy along with the house, so the questions below are worth asking before an offer:
- Does a current survey show the lot lines, any easements and any fence or shed over a line?
- Where does rain water drain on the lot, and does the swale in front of it hold water after a storm?
- Are there open or expired permits on the house, the pool, the roof or an addition?
- Which utility providers serve the house, and do the seller's bills show active service?
- Does the title commitment list any recorded restriction or easement that affects the lot?
Your agent can help you gather the answers. See our agents to find someone who works in North Naples, and use our property search to see what is listed now.
Which schools does the district list for an address in Willoughby Acres?
Collier County Public Schools assigns students by exact address, not by neighborhood name. A carried district lookup at one Willoughby Acres home lists an elementary, a middle and a high school for the 2026 to 27 school year, and each of the three shows an A grade on its own district page. Confirm every address with the district.
The carried school lookup
Veterans Memorial Elementary, North Naples Middle and Aubrey Rogers High were the assigned schools in a carried district lookup at one Willoughby Acres home on Erie Dr, for the 2026 to 27 school year.
That lookup covers one address and one school year. We have not run a second lookup at another house on the plat, so we do not claim that every house shares the same three schools. Boundaries are set by the school board and can be redrawn, and an assignment can also depend on programs a student applies to.
Published state grades
Each of the three schools shows an A grade on its own district web page, read on November 5, 2026.
A school grade is a summary set by the state each year from test results and other measures. It can change from one year to the next, and it says nothing on its own about a particular program, class or teacher. Read the current grade on the school's page when you are deciding, not the date we read it.
Confirming by address
Assignment goes by exact address, so confirm the schools for any home with Collier County Public Schools.
Use the district's own address lookup for the exact house you are considering, and check it again close to the start of the school year. If a particular school matters to your plans, call the school or the district office to confirm enrollment and transport rules for that address before you sign a contract.
What we do not print
We do not print distances to schools, school rankings, test scores beyond the published grade, or the street number used for the carried lookup. We also do not describe who lives in the neighborhood. Those choices keep this page to records a buyer can check, and they follow fair housing rules that apply to every home we list.
If you have a question this page does not answer, contact our team or browse our Naples communities to compare other neighborhoods by the same county records.
Does Willoughby Acres in Naples have an HOA, and what does it cost?
The records we checked show an inactive association and no published charge. A buyer in Willoughby Acres deals with Collier County for zoning, permits and the tax bill, and with the title company for anything recorded against a lot. The sections below set out the association record, the MLS fee fields and the recorded documents worth reading.
The association record
The state corporate register lists Willoughby Acres Property Owners Association, Inc. as inactive, per the research pack carried for this page, and we found no active homeowners association for Willoughby Acres as of November 5, 2026.
That is a record of a filing, not a promise about every lot. An inactive filing tells you the corporation is not current with the state; it does not erase anything that was recorded with the plat or with an older deed. We also ran searches for a civic group, a newsletter or a neighborhood website and turned up nothing active under the Willoughby Acres name.
What governs a home on the plat day to day is Collier County. The county sets the zoning district, issues building permits, runs code enforcement and mails the tax bill. If a neighbor's fence, a parked boat or a shed raises a question, the county code is the rulebook, and a county inspector, not a board, answers the complaint.
Some buyers read "no active association" as "no rules at all." That is not how it works on an older plat. A recorded restriction can outlive the group that once enforced it, and the county code applies to every lot whether or not anyone files a complaint. The cleaner way to read the record is this: there is no board to approve a paint color, and there is still a county and a public record to check.
Fees are not published
No published assessment for Willoughby Acres turned up in the sources we checked on November 5, 2026, so ask the seller and the title company about any recorded charge.
In practice that means three questions at the contract stage. First, ask the seller in writing whether they have paid any neighborhood charge, voluntary or recorded, in the years they owned the home. Second, ask the title company to report any recorded lien, assessment or covenant that touches the lot. Third, read the county tax bill line by line so you can tell a county charge from anything else.
The county bill does carry a non-ad valorem line, covered in the tax section below. It is a county line, billed by the county with the property tax, and it is not an association charge. Keep the two ideas apart when you budget.
MLS fee fields, October 29, 2026 export
Listing agents fill in fee fields when they enter a home in the MLS. The table shows what those two fields held on the Willoughby Acres rows we could join to the plat.
| MLS listing field, October 29, 2026 | Joined rows | Value entered |
|---|---|---|
| MLS HOA Fee/Freq | 12 | $0 |
| MLS Master HOA Fee/Freq | 12 | $0 |
Read the table for what it is: a data entry by each listing agent, not a legal finding. A zero in a listing field does not search the public record, and an agent can leave a default value in place. The rows that sat on other plats were set aside before the count, so the table covers only listings matched to the Willoughby Acres plat. Treat it as one signal among several and let the title commitment settle the question for the home you choose.
Deed restrictions and the title commitment
Any recorded deed restrictions are lot-specific and unverified here, so read the title commitment and the recorded plat before you sign.
Listing remarks for homes on the plat do not agree with each other on this point, which is one more reason to go to the documents. The title commitment lists the exceptions the title insurer will not cover. Each recorded restriction, easement or plat note shows up there as a numbered exception with a book and page reference. Ask the title agent for copies of each one, not just the list.
When you read them, look for setback lines, utility easements along the rear or side of the lot, any limit on the number or type of buildings, and any rule about fences, boats or trailers. If a restriction would block a plan you have, such as a pool, a garage addition or a detached shed, raise it before the inspection period ends. The recorded plat itself shows lot lines, easements and dedications, and the county survey requirements will tell you whether a new survey is needed for your loan.
What Florida laws apply when you buy in Willoughby Acres?
A purchase here runs on the general Florida rules for a single-family home rather than on association statutes. The documents that carry the weight are the property tax disclosure, the seller's disclosures, the title search and the recorded plat, plus county rules on short-term rentals and code enforcement. Each one is covered below.
With no active association on record, the Chapter 720 disclosure summary and estoppel certificate do not come into play, and a buyer relies on the title search, the recorded plat, the seller's disclosures and the property tax summary under s. 689.261.
The property tax disclosure summary
Florida law requires a short property tax disclosure summary in the contract for a residential sale. Its message is simple: do not budget on the seller's current tax bill. The seller's bill reflects their exemptions and any cap on the growth of their assessed value. After a sale, the county reassesses the home, the seller's homestead benefit does not transfer to you, and your bill can come out higher.
For a home on this plat that matters more than it might seem. Many owners have held their homes for years, and a long-held homestead can carry an assessed value well under market. The tax section below gives the 2026 county medians and worked rows at a few prices, so you can see the gap between a long-held bill and arithmetic at a purchase price. Your own figure will come from the appraiser after the sale is recorded.
The seller's disclosures
Florida courts have long required a seller of a home to tell the buyer about known defects that materially affect value and that a buyer could not readily see. Most contracts used in Collier County pair that duty with a written disclosure form. Read it closely and ask follow-up questions about anything marked unknown.
Florida also requires the seller of a residential property to give a flood disclosure at or before the contract under s. 689.302. It asks about past flood insurance claims, federal disaster aid tied to flooding, and whether the home has taken on water. On an older plat, those answers are worth more than a general description of the street.
Useful questions to add in writing:
- Year of the current roof covering, and any permit on file for it.
- Any past insurance claim on the home, for wind, water or anything else.
- Water heater, electrical panel and plumbing updates, with years and permits.
- Any open permit, unpermitted addition or enclosed porch.
- Who supplies water and sewer service, with a recent bill.
Short-term rental registration
Collier County Ordinance 2021-45 asks an owner who rents a home for under 30 days more than 3 times a calendar year to register it, with a one-time county fee and no county minimum stay, per the county rules carried for this page.
The county page on short-term vacation rental registration sets out the steps and the local contact rules. Registration is a county matter, separate from any state license or tax account that a short stay may need. Before you plan on short stays, read the title commitment for any recorded restriction on the lot, confirm the zoning district with the county, and talk with an insurance agent about how the policy treats short stays. A plan that works on paper can fail on a restriction or a policy exclusion.
Code enforcement and liens
Collier County Code Enforcement handles complaints about things like overgrown yards, inoperable vehicles, unpermitted work and structures built without approval. When an owner does not fix a violation, the county can impose a fine, and a recorded order can attach to the land as a lien. That lien can stay with the property after a sale if no one clears it.
Ask your title agent to run a municipal lien search, which reports open code cases, unpaid utility charges and open or expired permits. On an older home, open permits from past work are common: a roof, a pool enclosure or a water heater may have a permit that was never closed. Each one is easier to sort out before closing than after. You can also look up the permit history yourself through Collier County Growth Management.
What are property taxes in Willoughby Acres, Naples, with worked examples?
Every parcel on the plat sits in the same county millage area, so the rate is the same from street to street. The bill a buyer sees will depend on the appraiser's taxable value after the sale and on whether the home qualifies for homestead. The rate, the tax lines, worked rows and the 2026 county medians follow.
One millage area
The 2026 roll puts all 400 Willoughby Acres parcels in millage area 95 at 9.4721 mills, including 1.0000 mills for North Collier Fire Control and 0.1025 mills for a county lighting line, with no community development district levy.
A mill is one dollar of tax for every thousand dollars of taxable value. Since every parcel on the plat shares one millage area, two homes with the same taxable value and the same exemptions get the same ad valorem tax, whatever street they are on. Differences between neighbors' bills come from taxable value and exemptions, not from the rate.
The plat is in unincorporated Collier County, so there is no city millage line on the bill. The county's general and unincorporated lines, the school lines, the water management lines, fire control and the smaller county programs make up the total.
Of the 397 homes on the 2026 roll, 396 carry a $269.77 non-ad valorem charge, a county line on the tax bill.
Non-ad valorem charges are flat amounts, not a rate on value, and they appear on the same bill. Read the county bill for a given home to see the line as billed.
Millage lines for area 95
The table lists each 2026 county millage line for area 95, as the roll reports them.
| County 2026 millage line | Area 95 (400 parcels) |
|---|---|
| County line: General Fund | 3.0107 |
| County line: Water Management Fund-South FL | 0.0948 |
| County line: Big Cypress Basin | 0.0978 |
| County line: School Board State Law | 1.8990 |
| County line: School Board Local Board | 2.2480 |
| County line: Collier County Lighting | 0.1025 |
| County line: Collier Mosquito Control | 0.1331 |
| County line: North Collier Fire Control | 1.0000 |
| County line: Unincorp Gen MSTD | 0.6844 |
| County line: C.C. Water Pollution Control Program | 0.0246 |
| County line: Conservation Collier | 0.1772 |
| County millage, all lines | 9.4721 |
The two school lines together make up a large share of the total. That matters for homestead: the first homestead exemption applies to every line, while the additional exemption does not apply to school taxes, which is why the homestead column in the worked rows does not drop by a flat rate.
Worked tax rows at county medians
The worked rows below apply 9.4721 mills in millage area 95 to the county twelve-month median of $680,000 and to four round prices; they are arithmetic only, and the appraiser sets taxable value.
| Example | Price | Millage area | Mills | No exemption | With homestead | Non-ad valorem |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| County T12 Willoughby Acres median | $680,000 | 95 | 9.4721 | $6,441.03 | $6,063.58 | $269.77 |
| Round-number illustration | $500,000 | 95 | 9.4721 | $4,736.05 | $4,358.61 | $269.77 |
| Round-number illustration | $750,000 | 95 | 9.4721 | $7,104.07 | $6,726.63 | $269.77 |
| Round-number illustration | $1,000,000 | 95 | 9.4721 | $9,472.10 | $9,094.66 | $269.77 |
| Round-number illustration | $1,500,000 | 95 | 9.4721 | $14,208.15 | $13,830.71 | $269.77 |
Walk through the first row. It treats the county deed median for September 2025 through August 2026 as if it were the taxable value. With no exemption, the 2026 mills in area 95 produce $6,441.03 in ad valorem tax. With homestead, the arithmetic lands at $6,063.58. Either way, the flat county line shown in the last column is added on top.
Two cautions keep the rows honest. The county median is a midpoint between two recorded deeds, not the price of one home. And the appraiser's taxable value is set from the appraiser's own work as of January 1, so it rarely equals a contract price. Use the rows to size a budget, then ask the appraiser's office for an estimate on the specific home.
Median tax bills and homestead
The median 2026 county tax bill for a Willoughby Acres home is $3,047.30; homesteaded homes have a median of $2,623.41 and the rest $4,867.41.
Those medians are well below the worked rows, and the gap is the point of the disclosure summary above. Most homes on the plat carry homestead, and many owners have held their homes long enough that the cap on assessed value growth has kept their taxable value low. A buyer starts fresh: the assessment resets after the sale, and your first full bill reflects your own exemptions.
The Collier County Tax Collector mails notices around October 31 and lists taxes as due November 1. Paying in November earns a 4 percent reduction, which falls by 1 percent each month through March, when the full amount is due. Unpaid taxes become delinquent April 1 with a 3 percent penalty, and a tax certificate sale follows on or before June 1, per the tax collector's page read on November 5, 2026. Homestead applications go to the property appraiser; ask about the filing deadline for the year after you close.
Is Willoughby Acres in Naples in a flood zone?
Flood zones here are set address by address, not for the whole plat. The only carried map reading puts one Erie Dr home in a high-risk zone, and a FEMA letter covers one lot on Kirtland Dr. Every other lot needs its own check on the FEMA map before you price insurance or plan a remodel.
Flood zones by address
A FEMA map point check carried from October 21, 2026 found Zone AE at 82 Erie Dr on panel 12021C0194J, effective February 8, 2024; zones vary by lot, so check each address on the FEMA map and ask for an elevation certificate.
A high-risk zone on the federal map is a special flood hazard area. If you buy there with a federally backed mortgage, the lender will require flood insurance. Outside it, flood insurance is optional but still worth pricing, since flood claims come from moderate and low risk areas too.
We have one reading on one address, so this page makes no claim about any other lot. Some listing remarks describe a home as outside a flood zone; we did not print those, since they are not map readings and we could not check them. Enter the exact address on the FEMA Flood Map Service Center, print the result, and keep it with your contract file.
Collier County has also published proposed new flood maps for public review. Until a new map takes effect, the current map governs insurance and permits. Ask your agent and insurer whether a proposed change touches the address you are buying.
The lot with a map letter
A FEMA LOMR-F list names one Willoughby Acres lot on Kirtland Dr; such a letter covers that one lot and says nothing about its neighbors.
A LOMR-F, or letter of map revision based on fill, is issued when fill raised a lot or a structure above the base flood elevation on the effective map. FEMA only issues one where the map shows a high-risk area, so the letter is also a sign that the map shows that risk nearby. If the home you want has such a letter, ask the seller for a copy and give it to your insurer and lender.
Substantial improvement rules
In unincorporated Collier County, when the cost of improving or repairing a home reaches 50 percent of the structure's market value, the work must meet current floodplain rules, and the test reads the building alone, not the lot.
This rule is easy to overlook on an older plat. On many homes here the land makes up a large share of the appraiser's total value, so the structure value used in the test can be modest. A large renovation, an addition, or repairs after a storm can reach the line sooner than an owner expects. If they do, the home may need to be raised or otherwise brought up to current flood rules.
Collier County publishes a substantial improvement packet and cost worksheet. Before you write an offer that depends on a big remodel, ask a contractor to price the work and ask the county how the test would apply to that building.
Elevation certificates
An elevation certificate records how high a building's lowest floor sits relative to the base flood elevation. It is drawn up by a licensed surveyor and is used by insurers and the county.
We found no elevation certificate on file for any home on this plat in the sources carried for this page. Ask the seller whether one exists. If not, a surveyor can prepare one during the inspection period, and the cost is usually small next to what the document can tell you. Pair it with the FEMA map reading for the address and, where one exists, any FEMA letter on the lot. Never assume that one house sits higher or lower than the next; elevation is measured house by house.
How do storms and insurance work for a home in Willoughby Acres?
Storm records name areas, not single streets, and insurance is priced home by home. For a plat of mostly 1970s and 1980s homes, the roof, the openings and the paperwork carry much of the weight. Here is what the records show, the questions to bring to an insurer, and the inspections that usually come first.
What the records show about storms
The National Weather Service report on the September 2022 hurricane named areas along the Cocohatchee River in North Naples among places with significant storm flooding; no source we found names Willoughby Acres or any of its streets.
That sentence is about the area, not about these homes. A storm's effect on one house depends on its elevation, its construction and its repairs, none of which a regional report can tell you. The useful step is to ask the seller directly whether the home took on water or filed a claim in any storm, and to read the flood disclosure the seller provides.
Evacuation zones are a separate map from flood zones. Look up the address on the state's evacuation zone map rather than relying on a neighbor's answer, and keep the two maps apart when you plan.
Insurance questions to ask
Ask for quotes early, ideally before the inspection period starts, since insurability can shape the contract. Useful questions:
- Will you write this home, given its year built, roof and openings?
- What documents do you need: four-point, wind mitigation, elevation certificate, FEMA map reading?
- Is flood coverage required by the lender for this address, and is private flood an option alongside the federal program?
- What are the hurricane deductible and the roof settlement terms?
- Does the policy carry over any credit from the seller's wind mitigation report?
Citizens Property Insurance Corporation, the state-backed insurer, writes policies where private carriers do not. Your agent can tell you whether it is the right fit for a given home.
Wind and roof questions
A wind mitigation inspection records features that resist wind: roof covering, roof deck attachment, how the roof is tied to the walls, roof shape, and whether windows and doors have opening protection. Insurers use the form to set credits on the wind part of the premium. On a home from the 1970s or 1980s, a recent re-roof with updated attachment, or windows and doors rated for wind, can change the result.
Ask the seller for any wind mitigation report on file and check its date. If it predates the current roof or any new windows, order a fresh one. The state also runs a home hardening grant program; check whether applications are open before you count on it, and read the eligibility terms with care.
Older roofs and inspections
Most homes on the plat were built well before the current Florida Building Code, so expect your insurer to ask for a four-point inspection. It covers the roof, the electrical system, the plumbing and the HVAC system, and it notes the year and condition of each. Carriers often look hard at the roof's year, older electrical panels and older supply lines.
A full home inspection goes further, and a separate wood-destroying organism inspection is common in Florida. On an older home, ask for permits on the roof and any additions. Put every inspection inside your contract's inspection period, so you can renegotiate or walk away if a finding changes the numbers.
What is new around Willoughby Acres in North Naples in 2026?
The 2026 news near the plat is about roads and a hospital campus along the Immokalee Road corridor. None of it names Willoughby Acres, and none of it changes a home's records. Each item below is area news, dated, with no promise about when work will finish or how it might touch a given street.
Immokalee Road and Livingston Road
WINK News reported on July 31, 2026 that design work is under contract for a Livingston Road flyover over Immokalee Road, with construction still years away; this is area news, not news about Willoughby Acres.
The intersection is a busy one on the corridor, and a design contract is an early step. Funding, right of way and construction schedules can change before a shovel goes in. Treat the report as background for your drive, not as a reason to buy or sell.
Airport-Pulling Road
A Collier County project handout, covered in an April 2025 local news report, describes a six-lane widening of Airport-Pulling Road between Vanderbilt Beach Road and Immokalee Road, with a raised median. The county's own project pages are the place to follow the schedule. This is area news only: the handout does not name Willoughby Acres, and work on a nearby arterial road says nothing about a specific home.
If you commute on Airport-Pulling Road, expect lane shifts while work is under way. Ask the county transportation office for the current phase rather than relying on older articles.
The hospital campus nearby
NCH announced on January 20, 2026 a new pavilion at its North Naples hospital campus, with no construction dates given; this too is area news only.
The NCH North Naples Hospital campus sits on Health Park Boulevard, about 2.3 free-flow route miles from the centre of Willoughby Acres. An announcement is a plan, not a schedule, and fundraising and permits come before construction.
What area news does not tell you
Road and hospital plans make headlines, but they rarely answer the questions that decide a purchase. They do not tell you a lot's flood zone, a roof's year, a title exception or a home's tax after the sale. The records in this part, along with the county sales and roll figures elsewhere on this page, do that work.
When you are ready to look at homes, start with the listings on our properties page, and talk with one of our agents about any address. For questions about records, taxes or flood checks on a specific lot, contact Domain Realty Group. To see how this plat sits among other neighborhoods we cover, browse our Naples communities, or read about our team.
How is Willoughby Acres different from look-alike names?
Several Collier County names start with Willoughby or borrow its street names, and none of them is this plat. Every Willoughby Acres figure here comes from one county subdivision number on the 2026 roll, so a listing, deed or map pin under a similar name needs its own check first.
Willoughby Acres is not Willoughby Pines, Willoughby Place, Willoughby Preserve or Willoughby Gardens, and none of them shares its county figures.
Willoughby Pines, Place and Preserve are separate plats
These three names sit beside Willoughby Acres on the map, yet the county records each under its own plat. Their homes, deeds and tax lines stay out of every count, median and range above, and appear once, in a labelled county row further down.
A separate Willoughby Pines Replat also exists on the county record. It is folded into that same separate row, never into a Willoughby Acres number. When a seller says a home is "in Willoughby," ask which plat the deed names.
Plats that share the street names
Cape Cod Estates, Chatham Woods, Euclid Estates, Gates Mills, Johnnycake Cove, Kirtland Pines, Madison Estates, Madison Meadows, Mentor Pines, Willow West and Macedonia are separate plats that share street names with Willoughby Acres, so a street name alone never proves an address is on this plat.
Some of these small plats run along the same through streets as the grid, and some unplatted acreage parcels on Kirtland Dr, Willoughby Dr and Madison Dr also sit among the homes without belonging to the set. The legal description on the county parcel record, naming plat, block and lot, is the test.
Other places named Willoughby
Willoughby Gardens is a different name: it is a planned development on another tract, not this neighborhood, and the Mirage homes that sit there are separate too. Willoughby Cay is not this plat either, and the Willoughby Business Park and Willoughby Business Centre buildings are commercial property with no link to these homes. Towns called Willoughby elsewhere are not this place either.
What the MLS name returns
Agents type a subdivision name into each listing by hand, so the MLS label is a start, not a boundary. Some rows filed under the Willoughby Acres name sat on neighboring plats once matched to the roll, and they were dropped from every MLS figure.
How do Willoughby Acres prices compare with nearby Naples communities?
Nearby North Naples neighborhoods with their own pages on this site are listed below with county deed counts and medians from the same twelve-month window. They differ in home size, lot size and year built, so the table is a starting point for a buyer's search, not a verdict on which area offers more for the money.
County peer table
The peer table lists county figures for single-family neighborhoods with their own Domain Realty Group pages, with straight-line miles from the centre of Willoughby Acres, and it does not rank them.
| Community | Line | Straight-line miles | Homes | County T12 deeds | County T12 median | Median year built | ZIP |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| County peer Carlton Lakes | Four by distance | 0.94 | 170 | 9 | $785,000 | 2002 | 34110 |
| County peer Palm River | Four by distance | 1.11 | 605 | 19 | $645,000 | 1979 | 34110 |
| County peer Imperial Golf Estates | Four by distance | 1.28 | 631 | 24 | $1,030,000 | 1987 | 34110 |
| County peer Longshore Lake | Four by distance | 2.28 | 474 | 28 | $862,500 | 1995 | 34119 |
| County peer Palm River | Older-stock line | 1.11 | 605 | 19 | $645,000 | 1979 | 34110 |
| County peer Imperial Golf Estates | Older-stock line | 1.28 | 631 | 24 | $1,030,000 | 1987 | 34110 |
| County peer Longshore Lake | Older-stock line | 2.28 | 474 | 28 | $862,500 | 1995 | 34119 |
| County peer Naples Park | Older-stock line | 3.16 | 2701 | 114 | $850,000 | 1981 | 34108 |
Separate plats next door
The separate plats next door appear in one labelled county row below and are never added to a Willoughby Acres figure.
| County neighbor plats, not Willoughby Acres | Homes | Year built | Median year built | Median base area | County T12 deeds | County T12 median | T12 range | County 60-month deeds | County 60-month median |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| County Willoughby Pines, Pines Replat, Place and Preserve (separate plats) | 49 | 1985 to 2023 | 1991 | 1,912 | 3 | $1,050,000 | $550,000 to $1,500,000 | 13 | $780,000 |
That row groups four small plats so their thin deed counts read together, for context only.
How the peers were chosen
Candidates were North Naples neighborhoods of detached homes with a page on this site. Each needed at least 20 homes and at least 3 qualified county deeds in the twelve-month window. The first line takes the four with the shortest straight-line distance; the second takes the four with the shortest distance among those whose median year built falls in 1995 or earlier.
Distances run in a straight line from the centre of the Willoughby Acres footprint to the centre of each peer's home parcels. They are inferred map figures, not road routes.
Peer pages on this site
Carlton Lakes is a separate neighborhood with its own county set. Palm River is separate, with its own plats. Imperial Golf Estates has its own records page. Longshore Lake is a separate neighborhood in ZIP 34119. Naples Park is a separate, much larger grid closer to the Gulf.
How do you buy a home in Willoughby Acres, Naples, step by step?
Buying here runs on four checks: confirm the plat before you tour, order a title search early, price flood and wind cover by address, and close with the county and seller records in hand. Each step names the record to ask for, so nothing rests on a listing description alone.
Set the search
Start with the MLS label and the map box together, then read every result's street. Open the property appraiser's parcel page for each home you like and confirm the legal description names Willoughby Acres, noting year built, base area and lot size.
Order the title search
Once an offer is accepted, the title company searches the recorded plat, prior deeds, liens and any recorded restrictions on the lot. Read every exception listed in Schedule B of the commitment; an open permit or unpaid county charge can surface there.
Check flood and insurance by address
Look up the exact address on the FEMA flood map and ask the seller for an elevation certificate. Request homeowners, wind and flood quotes during the inspection period, so the yearly carrying cost is known before the deposit goes hard.
Close with the right records
Before closing, review the property tax disclosure summary, the seller's disclosure form and the most recent county tax bill. Confirm the water, sewer and power accounts with the seller's bills, and check the county permit history for the roof, windows and any additions.
After closing, file for homestead with the property appraiser if the home will be your permanent residence. The filing deadline is March 1 for the following tax year.
Frequently Asked Questions about Willoughby Acres homes for sale in Naples
These answers draw on the 2026 county roll, county deed records, the October 29, 2026 MLS export and the public sources listed at the end of this page. Figures name their source and window each time. Where a fact depends on the exact lot, the answer says so and points to the office that holds the record.
How many homes are in Willoughby Acres in Naples?
The 2026 county roll counts 397 detached homes on the Willoughby Acres plat, plus 3 vacant lots that stay outside every home figure. The plat holds 400 parcels in all, and no common or association parcel appears on it. Homes on neighboring plats with similar names are never added to that count.
Are there homes for sale in Willoughby Acres right now?
On October 29, 2026, the MLS export showed 2 active Willoughby Acres listings and 1 pending sale. Listings change daily, so use the live search on this page and check each result's street and plat. A result can carry the Willoughby Acres label and still sit on a separate plat next door.
What do Willoughby Acres homes sell for in county records?
Willoughby Acres county deeds recorded from September 2025 through August 2026 number 10, with a midpoint median of $680,000 and a range of $520,000 to $759,000. Over the full 60 months ending August 2026, 73 Willoughby Acres county deeds give a median of $635,000.
What does the MLS show for Willoughby Acres sales?
In the October 29, 2026 export, the MLS twelve-month window holds 9 Willoughby Acres closings with an MLS median of $710,000 and a span of $492,000 to $759,000. Rows filed on other plats were removed before these figures were set.
Why do county and MLS figures for Willoughby Acres differ?
The two records cover different windows and different sales. County deeds run September through August and include sales that never went through the MLS, while the MLS export counts only listed closings in its own twelve months. A deed can also record weeks after a closing, which moves it between windows.
Why is the twelve-month county median not a sale price?
Both twelve-month county windows hold an even number of deeds, 10 and 18. With an even count, the median is the midpoint between the two middle prices, so the figure can land on a number no single buyer paid. Read the range and the full deed table beside it.
What ZIP code is Willoughby Acres in?
Every parcel on the Willoughby Acres plat carries ZIP code 34110 on the 2026 county roll. That ZIP covers much of North Naples, so a 34110 address alone does not place a home on this plat. Confirm the plat name in the legal description on the county parcel record before you rely on it.
Is Willoughby Acres inside Naples city limits?
No. Willoughby Acres sits in unincorporated Collier County, outside the Naples city limits, even though its mailing city reads Naples. Property taxes follow the county millage area for the plat rather than any city levy, as the tax section above shows.
When were Willoughby Acres homes built?
County roll records show the first homes on the plat dating to the late 1960s, with most built through the 1970s and 1980s. The median year built is 1985. Only one home on the roll carries a year built of 2016 or later, so most buyers here are looking at homes several decades old.
How large are Willoughby Acres homes on the county roll?
The county base area, which measures a home's main living space, has a median of 1,709 square feet across the 397 homes. Homes recorded in the 1990s and later tend to show more base area than those from the 1960s and 1970s.
How big are the lots in Willoughby Acres?
The median lot on the plat measures 10,890 square feet on the county roll. Street medians sit at 10,890 or 12,197 square feet, with Wickliffe Dr and Willoughby Dr at the larger figure. Individual lots vary, so read the dimensions on the county parcel page or a survey for the exact home.
Are there vacant lots in Willoughby Acres?
Yes, the 2026 county roll lists 3 vacant lots on the plat. They sit on their own line and are never folded into a home count, median or range on this page. No vacant lot deed was recorded in any window we tracked, so there is no lot sale price to report.
Does Willoughby Acres have a homeowners' association?
We found no active homeowners association for Willoughby Acres as of November 5, 2026. The state corporate register shows an older property owners' group for the plat as inactive. Ask the seller and the title company whether any recorded document still ties a charge or rule to the lot you want.
Are there association dues in Willoughby Acres?
We found no published assessment for the plat in the sources checked on November 5, 2026. Ask the seller in writing about any recorded charge, and read the title commitment, which lists recorded liens and obligations tied to the lot before closing.
Are there deed restrictions in Willoughby Acres?
Recorded restrictions, if any, attach lot by lot, and we have not verified them for this page. Read the recorded plat and the title commitment for the home you want before signing. Your title agent can pull any restriction document listed there and tell you how it applies to that lot.
How is Willoughby Acres zoned?
One listing reports a county single-family district for the lots; we have not confirmed it for every lot. Before planning a pool, an addition or other work, ask Collier County Growth Management to confirm the district and setbacks for the exact parcel.
What are property taxes like in Willoughby Acres?
The 2026 roll places the whole plat in millage area 95 at 9.4721 mills. The median 2026 county tax bill for a home on the plat is $3,047.30, and homesteaded homes run lower than the rest. A buyer's bill resets after purchase, so use the tax section's worked rows as a guide.
Is there a community development district in Willoughby Acres?
No community development district levy appears on the 2026 county roll for the plat. The tax bill carries the county millage lines for area 95 and one county non-ad valorem charge. Check the most recent bill for the exact home, since the tax collector's record shows every line that applies.
What is the $269.77 line on a Willoughby Acres tax bill?
It is a county non-ad valorem charge that appears on 396 of the 397 homes on the 2026 roll. It is billed by the county with the property taxes, not by any association. Read the line description on the tax collector's bill for the exact home to see which county service it funds.
Is Willoughby Acres in a flood zone?
Flood zones on the plat vary by lot, so the answer depends on the exact address. Check the home on the FEMA flood map, ask the seller for an elevation certificate and request a flood quote during the inspection period.
What does a LOMR-F letter mean for a Willoughby Acres lot?
A LOMR-F is a FEMA letter that changes the flood map for one property after fill raised the ground. It applies to the lot it names and to nothing beside it. If a seller mentions one, ask for a copy and confirm it on FEMA's map service before relying on it.
Can I rent out a Willoughby Acres home for short stays?
Collier County asks owners who offer short stays above a set frequency to register the home with the county and pay a one-time fee. Recorded restrictions on a lot could add limits, so read the title commitment and ask the seller before planning short stays.
Which schools serve Willoughby Acres addresses?
A district lookup at one home on the plat named one elementary, one middle and one high school for the 2026 to 27 year, listed in the schools section above. Assignment follows the exact address and boundaries can change, so check every home with Collier County Public Schools before you buy.
How far is Willoughby Acres from Vanderbilt Beach?
The Vanderbilt Beach public access is about 6.1 free-flow route miles from the centre of Willoughby Acres, per the route table on this page. Travel varies with season and traffic, so test the drive yourself at the hours you expect to go.
How far is Willoughby Acres from Southwest Florida International Airport?
Southwest Florida International Airport is about 24.4 free-flow route miles from the centre of Willoughby Acres, per the route table on this page. Naples Airport, a general aviation field, is about 9.7 free-flow route miles from the centre of Willoughby Acres.
Is Willoughby Preserve a separate plat from Willoughby Acres?
Yes. Willoughby Preserve is a separate plat on the county record, grouped with Willoughby Pines and Willoughby Place in one labelled neighbor row on this page. None of its homes or deeds is counted in any Willoughby Acres figure. Check the legal description on the parcel record for any home you consider.
Why can a listing on another plat appear in a Willoughby Acres search?
Agents enter the subdivision name by hand, and some homes on small neighboring plats share the same streets, so a listing on another plat can carry the Willoughby Acres label. The search on this page pairs the label with a map box, but each result still needs a parcel record check.
Does a street name prove a home is in Willoughby Acres?
No. Several separate plats and some unplatted acreage parcels sit on the same street names as the grid, from Mentor Dr to Kirtland Dr. Only the legal description on the county parcel record proves the plat. Read it for every address before you treat a home as part of this set.
What should I check before buying an older Willoughby Acres home?
Order a full inspection, a four-point inspection and a wind mitigation report. Check the county permit history for the roof, electrical, plumbing and windows. If you plan major work, ask the county how its floodplain improvement test would apply to that building before you commit.
How do I start a home search in Willoughby Acres?
Open the live listings on this page, then set an alert for new results. For each home, read the street, then open the county parcel record and confirm the plat. Our Naples team can pull deed history, tax bills and permit records for any address and walk you through a showing.
