 The new shell buildings that can be purchased with buyer completing their own buildout or by a turn key build-to-suit arrangement with DIX completing buildout, include one with 2,180 square feet priced at $381,500 and a 2,700 square foot building at $472,500.

Eight stand-alone buildings ranging from 1,350 to 3,150 square feet of custom finished offices with reception areas, break rooms and copy centers were designed specifically for the needs of small to medium-sized companies, particularly physicians, medical related businesses and service providers, Dicks explained. 

“Buyers who are business owners see the significant advantages of owning their own facilities with today’s historically low rates, and investors see the potential of leasing to an investment grade tenant in this exceptional office locale,” he said.

Ciara Creek Executive Centre is one of multiple projects DIX Developments is currently developing throughout Central Florida .  The next one to get underway is University Econ Executive Center an office development the company purchased at the prime signalized intersection of University Blvd. and Econlockhatchee Trail one mile west of SR 417.
