Lake Park at Tradition, Port St. Lucie, FL

  

Port St. Lucie, FL  (Jan.  27, 2016) – Minto Communities announces six new fully furnished models for its premier active adult community called LakePark at Tradition. The highly anticipated models include two single-family home options and four villas.

The public is invited to view the new models at the grand opening on Saturday, January 30 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday, January 31 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Light refreshments and hors d'oeuvres will be served on both days of the event, held in the new sales office at 11428 SW Lake Park Drive.

 Steve Svopa, Vice President of Minto Communities, points out that buyers can get a lot more home for their money in Port St. Lucie compared to other cities in South Florida. 

“A recent report suggests that a new 2,300-square-foot home in Tradition is about half of the price of a comparable home in Palm Beach County,” said Svopa.

“With that kind of value in mind, and a quieter lifestyle, many people choose to live in St. Lucie County, which offers golf courses, beaches, shopping and dining.  And all the attractions of the Palm Beaches are less than an hour away.”

Wendover Housing Partners Sparks Growth in Longwood, FL with Opening of Weston Park Apartments

Weston Park at SunRail Station, Longwood, FL

 

Jonathan L. Wolf

ORLANDO, FL, Jan. 27, 2016 – Wendover Housing Partners, a privately held real estate development, investment and management company, today announces the opening of its newest property, Weston Park.

As a premier transit oriented development (TOD), Weston Park offers the first multi-family residential housing directly adjacent to the City of Longwood’s SunRail Station. Now accepting applications for new residents, the 208-unit apartment home community encourages residents to adopt a more car-independent lifestyle.

“As Central Florida continues to grow, access to public transportation will become invaluable to commuters wanting to avoid congested highways and interstates,” said Jonathan L. Wolf, President and Founder of Wendover Housing Partners.

“Wendover recognized the lack of housing in close proximity to stops on the SunRail line, making the option to ride less convenient. Weston Park is a step in the right direction in creating a more transit-friendly city.”

Weston Park, which broke ground in December 2014, is the result of a $30 million investment and multiple government partnerships. In addition to more than 200 temporary construction jobs created by the project, Wendover has hired an in-house management staff to run the property.

 The development also includes a parking structure, which is open to SunRail riders as well as residents, and is within walking distance to local shops and businesses. 

“Whether or not you sign a lease at Weston Park, the property benefits the Longwood community as a whole. 

"Non-residents wanting to ride SunRail will be able to utilize the parking garage with easy access to the station and local shops,” said Wolf. “Not only has the development created new jobs, it will also enhance the city’s culture and drive new business.”

Weston Park offers residents access to exclusive comforts including concierge services, as well as superior community amenities such as a luxury clubhouse, pool, fire pit, game room and dog park. The TOD community is now leasing one, two and three bedroom units, ranging from $953 to $1,460 per month.

 or call (407) 260-2642.
