March 19, 2025One of the biggest trends in today’s residential real estate market appears to becoming more fact than trend. An increasing number of U.S. home buyers are building and buying homes not only for their immediate family, but other generations as well.
And, it’s an option right at home at Plantation Bay Golf & Country Club in Ormond Beach. As one of ICI Homes’ premier properties on Florida’s east central Atlantic coast, Plantation Bay’s size, abundant amenities and great location make it perfect for multigenerational living.
Curious how Plantation Bay might fit your family’s multigenerational housing needs?
Read on for more information.
The facts
The National Association of REALTORS®’ 2024 Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers spotlighted the multigenerational housing trend after researchers compiled data from a survey of buyers and sellers who completed a transaction between July 2023 and June 2024.
It found that 17 percent of all home buyers surveyed bought a multigenerational home, the highest percentage since the organization began tracking this home-buying category in 2012. The NAR has compiled the annual Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers since 1981.
The top four reasons cited by multigenerational home buyers in the NAR report were cost savings (36 percent), caring for aging parents (25 percent), children over the age of 18 returning home (21 percent), and children over the age of 18 who haven’t launched (20 percent).
Why Plantation Bay
It boasts wonderful attributes, but a few stand out for folks considering multigenerational living.
Plantation Bay’s resident amenities offer activities, environments and events for all ages. Start with 45 holes of golf, two clubhouses (including the iconic Founders Club) with dining, social and event space, a wellness center that anchors two resort-style swimming pools, a poolside cabana, full-service spa, fitness center, tennis, pickleball, basketball and bocce ball courts, and miles of walking trails and sidewalks, plus pocket parks and playgrounds.
A monthly calendar of resident activities appeals to youth, adults, active retirees and vibrant older folks. Pristine Atlantic beaches are a mere 10 minutes east. Plantation Bay’s hometown of Ormond Beach boasts a fun, funky old-Florida vibe, plus burgeoning dining, cultural and art scenes. And Plantation Bay’s gated entrance provides peace of mind for everyone.
Room for all
Plantation Bay encompasses 3,600 acres, much of which will remain as conservation land. But even after more than two decades of growth, that same size means no shortage of new homesites and development phases.

March 1, 2025Let’s check in on the Reserve at Plantation Bay, the unique enclave that’s part of Plantation Bay Golf & Country Club in Ormond Beach.
Plantation Bay is one of ICI Homes’ signature properties on Florida’s east central coast and the Reserve is yet another option for living at, and loving, this amazing master-planned community.
Since it’s been a minute, we’ll show off our latest model at the Reserve, plus share some information about this private, scenic sanctuary.
Read on to meet the Egret II model at the Reserve at Plantation Bay.
Why the Reserve is special
Seclusion is the Reserve’s calling card. It’s a separate neighborhood from Plantation Bay’s more than 3,600 acres, but its entrance is across the street from Plantation Bay’s main gated entrance, giving residents a fun hint of a hideaway.
Inside the Reserve, prospective residents will notice a true “Old Florida” feel with its vast coastal forest surroundings, seven ponds, and 40 acres of conservation land. But buying or building a new custom Florida home here isn’t an unlimited opportunity. The Reserve will contain only 75 roomy lots at buildout — some of which have been snapped up, of course — so be sure you check out this Plantation Bay enclave soon for the best choices.
If you didn’t know, Reserve residents also have the same opportunity as Plantation Bay residents to enjoy the community’s amazing amenities. Think 45 holes of golf, two clubhouses anchoring dining and social scenes, a Wellness Center with two resort-style swimming pools and cabana bar, a full-service spa and fitness center, pickleball and tennis centers, plus other sports courts.
Note that enjoying Plantation Bay amenities requires a membership, and there are plenty of options that may be right for you.
A look at the Egret II model
It’s gorgeous and it could be yours (more on the latter below).
The Reserve’s Egret II model is a popular one-level floor plan with three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a three-vehicle garage. It also contains a stunning bonus room near the entrance that features the plan’s trademark circular window wall.
How popular is the Reserve? It won not one but FIVE awards combined from the 2024 Flagler and Volusia Parades of Homes!
The Egret II is drenched with light. It entrance leads to spacious open living, dining, and kitchen spaces, with a self-contained owner’s suite on one side for privacy, and remaining bedrooms and baths on the opposite side.
Its outdoor living space is accessed via disappearing sliding doors and a private door from the owners suite. A relaxing pool awaits.
And yes — it’s absolutely available. This Egret II model is for sale just like the Reserve’s other homes. If you love it and aren’t rushed, buy it on a leaseback (you’ll lease it back to ICI Homes while it functions as a model). Once that’s finished, it becomes your one-of-a-kind home!
