Subdivisions beneath the Florida oaks
In Ormond Lakes, custom homes draw from Spanish and Mediterranean Revival styles, with tiled roofs and domed archways. Many are adorned with pastel paint over stucco exteriors, and lots are large and well-maintained. "It's all new construction, built since 2000. They have several builders designing custom homes," says Lancelot Lenard, Realtor with Florida Homes Realty and Mortgage; he's been selling homes in the area for nearly a decade. "The HOA really keeps the neighborhood maintained, and most homes there are big, with amenities like pools. So it's pricier, but you get a lot for your money." Smaller custom homes sell between $400,000 and $500,000, while large custom homes, especially ones with lake views, sell between $600,000 and $900,000. Jackie Thompson, member of the Ormond Lakes Homeowner's Association, mentions that landscaping is part of the appeal.
