Its location and size alone make it worth a look, but Plantation Bay is a winner for prospective customers keen on a timely move-in. Because it’s quite sizable — 3,600 acres — and popular — new phases come online almost annually — Plantation Bay boasts a strong roster of move in ready homes. These are homes built to sell rather than for a specific customer. Also known as spec homes, Plantation Bay’s inventory homes are community favorites from our library of award-winning floor plans and reflect neutral, timeless colors and designs. If inventory-home shopping sounds like a winning idea for your east central Florida relocation, here’s how Plantation Bay could be your next home much faster than you think. It’s special here at Plantation Bay Plantation Bay is one of our signature properties in this region of the Sunshine State. The community’s acreage includes extensive conservation land yet is large enough to support new homes, neighborhoods and residents for quite some time. And, the amenities are stunning. Three golf courses totaling 45 holes of golf lead the way, followed by two clubhouses (our new Founders Club is a community landmark), dining and social scenes, a Wellness Center with resort-style swimming pools, a cabana bar and sun decks, plus a full-service spa and fitness center, pickleball and tennis court complexes, and basketball and bocce ball courts. Did we mention the miles of wide sidewalks, pocket parks and green spaces? The gated entrances? A winning location in Ormond Beach Plantation Bay’s hometown of Ormond Beach puts it on the north end of the Daytona Beach area. The community also is minutes from Interstate 95, Florida’s east coast traffic artery, and a short drive north to Jacksonville and St. Augustine. Head south to Daytona Beach and Interstate 4, which takes you to those world-renowned Orlando attractions. Inventory homes galore Plantation Bay’s roster of inventory homes is continually updated on our website and features move-in-ready homes you can purchase right now, or quick-move-in homes that are approximately a month from being completed. The latter gives you a longer runway if you need to plan your move, sell your current home, or handle other relocation logistics. Even better is the selection of Plantation Bay’s inventory homes. They range from estate-sized homes well over 3,000 square feet — our Egret, Egret V and Monaco floor plans, for example — to multiple, versatile single-family homes that can range from the 2,256-square foot Serena II to the 2,813-square-foot Egret VII. Plantation Bay’s large size and multiplicity of neighborhoods also comes in handy with inventory homes. Many neighborhoods feature townhomes — our Arbor III and Blossom III floor plans — that provide the perfect no-to-low-maintenance, lock-up-and-go lifestyle. The 1,643-square-foot Arbor III offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a two-vehicle garage. The 2,095-square-foot Blossom III offers three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a two-vehicle garage.
