Discover leisure, luxury and unfettered comfort in the heart of Parkland, FL. 

Every year, spring surprises our senses with new sights and scents. This spring, Lennar promises to delight new homebuyers with an oasis for resort-style family living at MiraLago in the heart of Parkland. MiraLago fuses small neighborhood charm with Mediterranean accents and a refreshing Florida take on coastal living – oversized homesites and quaint cul-de-sacs are quietly nestled on peninsulas flanking stunning lake views that capture the best of the south Florida sunshine.

Spring is a time for growth, and there’s no doubt that wide-open spaces were top of mind when MiraLago was built. The nearly 5,000 square feet of smartly-designed living space – including more than a dozen designs featuring three- to six bedroom, two- to three car garage options and loft designs in select homes – is a nod to the inspiration behind Parkland’s rated-number-one luxury community: an unencumbered and all-inclusive family lifestyle. So you and your crew can have plenty of room to spread your wings! And with Lennar’s Everything’s Included® Luxury Package, premium features include granite countertops, deluxe stainless steel appliances, impact windows, Nexia™ home automation system, and much more.

Although springtime may be the perfect weather to escape town, sometimes the best getaway is a stay at home. While MiraLago didn’t coin the term staycation, it will offer some of the best resort-style entertainment to satisfy even the most devout travel enthusiasts among us. You’ll think you’ve landed in a Mediterranean villa when you dive into the shimmering blue waters of the grand pool in the expansive clubhouse. Even those that need the most pampering will find refuge in the sauna or spa, and sweat the stress away at the coming-soon state-of-the-art fitness center, tennis or basketball courts. Of course, even the kids will have their fun too at the playgrounds, tot-lot and much more.

For those seeking an escape from the ordinary without compromising family comforts, MiraLago offers the perfect balance of luxury and convenience, smartly-located in the heart of Parkland.

According to a new article from Builder, the words “city” and “suburbs” don’t mean what they used to. Today, builders are finding that home buyers in search of an urban lifestyle aren’t married to living downtown, preferring the lifestyle itself over the idea of actually living in the city.

“Walkable urbanism” – a term coined by Christopher Leinberger, a Brookings Institution senior fellow and George Washington University professor – isn’t new, but it’s red hot.

A 2014 report from the university counted 558 walkable urban places, or WalkUPs, in the country’s 30 largest metropolitan areas, including D.C. As much as one-third of New York’s and Boston’s office and retail space is within walking distance of residences, the report says, and Miami, Atlanta, Los Angeles, and Denver are moving in that direction. Homeowners and tenants in WalkUPs can reach their jobs, schools, restaurants, and other daily destinations on foot.
