Waterset by Newland Communities
The Maybeck home is available starting at $364,000 in a nature park-filled community called Waterset by Newland Communities in Apollo Beach. This is a 1,319-acre community where you can enjoy a 12-foot-wide trail system, passing by lakes, ponds, community parks, neighborhoods and dog parks. At the pier overlooking the lake, linger alone and reflect or enjoy conversations with your loved ones as you watch the sunset.
The community hired pool remodeling contractors to upgrade the facility since residents were fed up of its poor status, it has helped to create a gathering place called Landing, where you can hang out, have coffee and meet friends and neighbors. The community swimming pool and the fitness center are other options for enhancing health and just enjoying life.
Newland Communities has been developing amazing communities for the past 40 years, becoming the country’s largest private developer of mixed-use urban communities and planned residential communities.
