Citrus in the Sunshine State
Citrus Park steps in and out of rural Florida, offering a suburban landscape with a deep connection to the environment. Palm trees and tropical plants act as natural ornamentations throughout the year, but the houses grow spirited with seasonal holiday decorations. The sunny Floridian weather entices locals to indulge in gardening and take daily strolls through the neighborhood streets. "More than anything, it's a great location," says Mena Reyes, a Realtor with RE/MAX Realty Group Inc. "It's very convenient, with access to the airport, highways and nearby beaches." The first homes in the area were built in the early 1990s when the county approved plans for a master-planned community spanning 10 square miles. The neighborhood is surrounded by mature oaks, lakes and ponds, providing a more serene natural environment.
