Why families come to Greater Pines
Tucked away in the meandering hills of Clermont is Greater Pines, a peaceful residential neighborhood surrounded by solid schools, ample lakes, and well-kept parks. The neighborhood was developed in 10 phases by Greater Construction. “[They] did a great job with the neighborhood,” says Matthew Mobley, broker/owner at Hancock Realty Group. “It’s transitioned over the years.” Mobley says that young families have made the neighborhood their home since its establishment, with its family-friendliness being its greatest draw.
