Humble homes, humble lifestyles

The main entrance to Clermont's Greater Hills neighborhood is tucked between a Shell gas station and a small business center humble on Highway 50, so it might almost be easy to miss. But the tree-lined drive down Greater Hills Boulevard transforms the humdrum business energy from the highway into the restful vibe of the neighborhood, with its freshly cut lawns and family cars parked in driveways. “Greater Hills was the first Greater Construction subdivision to be built for the opening of Clermont into the Orlando market,” says Matthew Mobley, broker/owner at Hancock Realty Group. “People might live here and drive into Orlando to work and get a house for cheap”

Prime area for young families

Homes here are ranch-style houses built in the 1990s. Each prominently features front-facing one- and two-car garages framed by neat lawns and sidewalks. Various trees, from palm trees to towering oaks, provide shade to the neighborhood. Columns and arched entrances are common. Homes come in all colors, and some homeowners opt for solar panel roofs to make full use of Florida’s sunny weather. The neighborhood has a recreation area at its center, with a pool, tennis courts, scenic lake and playground for use by residents. “The homes were originally purchased by a lot of young families. Those people raised kids there, then you had a season where there weren’t as many kids in the area,” Mobley says. “When the homes turn over they turn over to new young families, and it ebbs and flows.” Prices range from $375,000 to $450,000. HOA fees are around $45 a month.
