Dozens of people interested in buying a home in Medley at Mirada toured the new active-adult community and spent the day exploring the Metro Lagoon by Crystal Lagoons® in the nearby Epperson community Nov. 14. Attendees included people vacationing from out of state, along with Florida residents who came from as far away as The Villages.
Lennar’s Medley at Mirada celebrated its grand opening in July and will feature the Tampa Bay area’s third and largest Metro Lagoon by Crystal Lagoons®. Because Mirada’s Lagoon is under construction, interested homebuyers were shuttled to the Epperson Lagoon to experience first-hand what they can expect when the Mirada Lagoon is complete.
“Medley at Mirada is the perfect fit for active-adult buyers who want a coastal lifestyle in west-central Florida, and the Crystal Lagoon is a big part of that experience,” said Mike Bachman, Director of Sales of Medley by Lennar. “We’re happy to take our customers to the Epperson Lagoon so they know exactly what they can look forward to when the Mirada Lagoon is open.”
At nearly 15 acres, the Lagoon planned for Mirada will be the second-largest in the United States. Similar to the 7.5-acre Lagoon at Epperson, Mirada’s Lagoon will feature a beach, swim-up bar, and kayak and paddleboard rentals.
Lennar’s Medley communities, built for residents 55+, are known for diverse homeowner activities, from day trips and cooking classes to wine tastings and dinner cruises. Medley at Mirada is a gated community that will have, in addition to the Lagoon, a private clubhouse with a fitness center, a resort-style pool, and tennis and pickleball courts. Residents can also take advantage of trails, bocce ball courts, an event lawn, and dog parks.
A wide range of activities has proven extremely popular for buyers at Medley’s other community, Medley at Southshore Bay, which launched over a year ago in south Hillsborough County. The second phase is now open for sale and the first phase is almost sold out. A Crystal Lagoon is expected to open in Southshore Bay in 2020.
“Home buyers want much more than a home,” Bachman said. “They also want a wide range of exciting amenities and activities to keep them engaged, and our Medley communities are designed with that in mind.”
In Pasco County, Medley at Mirada offers nine single-family home designs and three styles of low-maintenance villas. Single-family homes are priced from the $300s and are 1,683 to 2,775 square feet with two or three bedrooms. The two-bedroom attached villas are 1,398 to 1,747 square feet, with some featuring a flex room that can be a third bedroom, office or den, and start in the mid $200s.
Medley at Mirada is located within the larger, multi-generational Mirada community, off State Road 52 just east of I-75. The Mirada community will have an estimated 5,000 homes.
