If you’ve always dreamed of having a home near the water and enjoying the lake lifestyle daily, then Lennar’s newest northwest Austin community, Lakeside at Tessera, is the place for you. Named “Best Master-Planned Community” by the Austin Business Journal, the community is nestled on the north shore of Lake Travis, away from the hustle and bustle of daily life, in the charming town of Lago Vista.
Lennar is offering its highly popular Ridgepointe Collection, starting from the $240s, at Lakeside. The plans offer modern, open one- and two-story designs ranging in size from 1,279 to 2,577 square feet with loads of features designed to perfectly match your lifestyle. Best of all, the homes in Lakeside offer Lennar’s Everything’s Included® package, giving you a wealth of home automation technology such as Amazon Echo Dot, Ring® Doorbell and Honeywell Thermostat. Homebuyers also enjoy no dead spots thanks to Lennar’s WiFi Certified Home Design, meaning families get a new home that is always ready for the future as new technologies and innovations come to market. Also included are energy efficient green features and luxurious designs and finishes, cutting edge appliances and the latest fixtures to give your home a style like no other.
When it comes to outdoor amenities, it doesn’t get better than Lakeside. With Lake Travis just steps from your front door, it only makes sense that residents have access to a private resident boat launch, kayak and SUP launch and a mile of shoreline with beach access. Other highlights include an infinity edge community pool, children’s splash pool, outdoor pavilion and playscape. If that’s not enough, there are miles of interconnected hike and bike trails, and right across the street sits the majestic Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge.
Families at Lakeside are served by the highly regarding Lago Vista ISD, where students where outstanding performance in the classroom is balanced by exceptional achievement on the playing field and in extracurricular endeavors.
Lennar just opened its first model at Lakeside, and homebuyers are invited to stop by for a self-guided tour. The model is Lennar’s stunning, two-story Winsdale plan, spanning 2,399 square feet and featuring 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths and a 2-car garage.
What better way to beat the summer heat than to live life Lakeside. And the timing couldn’t be better, as Lennar has announced Pre-Grand Opening Specials at the community. When a homebuyer signs a purchase agreement on a select quick move-in home now through July 31 and close per the date specified in the purchase agreement, Lennar will pay their closing costs (excluding discount points).

Summer is the time for poolside parties and barbecues. If you love to host, there are so many benefits to having an outdoor kitchen in South Florida.

Living in a Florida home means a beautiful green lawn pretty much all year long. However, the Florida weather can also be harsh on our lawns. Here are some easy steps you can take to keep your grass, and yard, thriving –no matter the conditions!
Mow your lawn frequently
Florida summers bring many showers. All that extra rain makes the grass grow faster than any other time of the year. Keeping the grass cut short will give lawn pests less places to hide, plus it will look nicely manicured.
Think about switching up your watering schedule
It’s best to limit the amount of watering you do during the summer. Extra water can bring turf disease and insect attacks. You can tell when the grass around your Florida home is thirsty by looking at the blades; they will fold in half to conserve water.
Moderately use fertilizers for turf nutrition
Fertilizers help maintain the nutritional balance of your lawn. Limit the use of these fertilizers and keep within state and local fertilizer ordinance guidelines. Overusing them can cause more harm than help. If your budget allows, look into organic fertilizers that won’t burn your lawn, even if you overuse it.
Looking for New Homes with a Yard?
Lennar’s Twin Homes at Campo Bello, located in Miami, located just East of the FL Turnpike and SW 248th ST, have oversized backyards, making it the perfect place to put your lawn care and gardening knowledge into action! On top of having a nice lawn, there are so many beautiful flowers that flourish in the subtropical South Florida climate. Start your own garden today, you’ll love the scents and colors it will bring!
Here are 3 Recommended Outdoor Flowers for Your Florida Home
Pentas
This low-maintenance plant is one of the easiest flowers to grow in Florida. Pentas bloom all year round, producing showy clusters of red, pink, lavender or white flowers.
Evolvulus
Known also as Blue Daze, has a bright blue bloom that looks great against its silvery-green foliage. This delightful, drought-tolerant flower blooms year round, making it valuable for filling garden beds in your new home in South Florida.
Coreopsis
Florida’s official state flower is one of the cheeriest plants you can grow in your garden. The flower typically blooms daisy-shaped with a golden-yellow, but you can find a variety of shades at local plant farms.
Bringing plants inside provides not only beauty but also air purification. There are many plants that are easy to care for and “house-trained”.
Top 3 Recommended Indoor Plants for Homes in Florida
Peace Lily
This low-maintenance plant topped NASA’s list for removing some of the most common air pollutants. These lilies require very little light or water to survive. They’re happy with a little shady spot and a weekly watering.
Gerbera Daisy
This happy little bloom is best for filtering out toxins found in dry cleaning chemicals and inks. The gerbera daisy grows best in a pot with drainage holes placed in a prominent spot with lots of sunlight.
Snake Plant
It’s not as scary as it sounds! It filters out scary toxins found in cleaning products, toilet paper, tissues and personal care products. It’s the perfect bathroom plant for your new Florida home, especially since it thrives in humid conditions and requires little light. It is also known for absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing a significant amount of oxygen.
So it was in the beginning, let there be light—and yet somehow homeowners often overlook the most crucial part of interior design. Choosing the perfect lighting throughout your new home can illuminate your tastes, needs, and even your lifestyle.
Everything’s Included® in Lennar’s new homes for sale throughout the Dallas – Fort Worth Metroplex. That’s great news for home buyers since those highly sought after, state-of-the-art lighting and fixtures are already standard in a new home. That includes LED lighting, and depending on the home design, recessed, or other specialty fixtures.
For instance, energy-saving LED lights shimmer in new homes for sale in Fate, TX at Woodcreek. Meanwhile at Waterbrook, kitchen countertops are illuminated with under cabinet lighting in new homes for sale in Argyle, TX.
Lighting choices can make all the difference in a new home’s ambiance, according to interior-design experts. Lighting evokes emotion, creating an atmosphere of elegance or playfulness, subdued relaxation, or vibrant entertaining.
Everyone knows about first impressions, but how much thought, really, goes into foyer lighting? As with the dining room, chandeliers are a must, pros say. The kind you settle on can determine what kind of “wow” you want to inspire.
Remember, lighting should fit each room’s purpose. Kitchens and bathrooms, for instance, need task-centered light. Warm or natural light is best in the bathroom, while kitchen islands can benefit from pendant or artisan lighting. Stylized fixtures can also be tied together in the living and dining areas.
Have fun in those open-concept spaces. Mix soft and bright lighting in a broad array of overhead, floor, and table lamps. Lampshades and brilliance levels can amplify your décor.
Don’t cut corners—that is, fill unused spaces with light—and don’t forget walls. Remember, too, that harsh lighting in other parts of the room can cast unsightly shadows in dimmed spots. Add wall sconces. Take a tip from museums and illuminate framed pieces.
Don’t forget the sun. The Metroplex bathes under an average of about 30 more days of sunshine than the rest of the U.S., so let nature work some magic.
Think color, too. Humans can detect 10 million hues, which are simply reflections of light. Sure, you’d be hard-pressed to find a retailer that offers that many colors, but at least consider the possibilities. After all, colorful splashes shouldn’t be limited to just the holidays.
To see other ways Lennar can illuminate all of the bright opportunities for a new home in the Metroplex, call the Dallas-Fort Worth Internet New Home Consutants at (866) 314-4477.
