After closely following its development, we now have confirmed details to share. As a buyer’s agent dedicated to representing you—not the builder—I’m excited to share the latest updates on Lake Nellie Crossings, a promising new community taking shape in Clermont. Initially expected to be built by Clermont’s own Pilar Homes, this community is now under the experienced hands of national builder Ryan Homes. Located along Lakeshore Drive, Lake Nellie Crossings will offer 102 homesites, each starting at a generous quarter-acre, giving you plenty of space to make your dream home a reality.
The 102 homesites will be developed across 57 acres north of Little Lake Nellie with the 20-acre parcel, just east of Royal Vista Avenue, remaining as an undeveloped dedicated conservation area that will remain untouched, preserving the natural beauty surrounding the neighborhood. With four thoughtfully designed floor plans—two single-story and two two-story options—plus the possibility of a 3-car garage, there’s something here for a variety of lifestyles. Pricing begins in the upper $500s, and with no CDD fees, a low HOA, and a favorable millage rate thanks to its location in unincorporated Lake County, this community offers value alongside charm.
A Closer Look at the Floor Plans
Four distinct layouts are available to be built in Lake Nellie Crossings, blending modern functionality with flexible living spaces.
Here’s what you can expect:
– Lynn Haven (Two-Story)
Spanning over 2,797 square feet, this 4+ bedroom, 2+ bathroom home welcomes you with a spacious front porch. Inside, a flexible area off the foyer can serve as a den or a private study with optional doors. The open-concept family room flows into a gourmet kitchen with an island, perfect for entertaining, while an extended lanai invites outdoor relaxation. Upstairs, a loft joins three bedrooms and a full bath, with the owner’s suite boasting tray ceilings, dual vanities, and a generous walk-in closet.
– Oakton (Two-Story)
At 3,287 square feet, this 4+ bedroom, 3+ bathroom plan offers room to grow. A versatile flex space off the foyer could become a library or guest suite, while the gourmet kitchen—with its oversized island—overlooks the dining and family areas. Enjoy the lanai for outdoor living or retreat to the study for quiet time. Upstairs, a loft connects three bedrooms and a full bath, while the owner’s suite shines with dual walk-in closets and a luxurious double-vanity bathroom.
– Peterson Cove (Single-Story)
This 2,160-square-foot, 4+ bedroom, 2+ bathroom home is ideal for those seeking one-level living. Step through the foyer to find a flexible space that can double as a suite with its own bath. The open family room flows into a gourmet kitchen and dining area, complete with a large island and walk-in pantry. Three additional bedrooms share a full bath near the 2-car garage, while the owner’s suite impresses with a double vanity, oversized shower, huge walk-in closet, and direct lanai access.
– Sandalwood (Single-Story)
Offering 2,551 square feet, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom layout blends convenience and style. A family entry leads to a versatile flex space—perfect as a home office—while two bedrooms share a full bath. A guest suite with its own bath sits near the 3-car garage. The gourmet kitchen, with a large island, opens to the dining and family areas, and the owner’s suite features a double vanity, massive walk-in closet, and private lanai access.
Why Lake Nellie Crossings Stands Out
This community brings a lot to the table:
– One- and two-story homes starting in the upper $500s.
– Optional 3-car garages for extra storage or flexibility.
– Quarter-acre (or larger) lots, perfect for adding a pool or just enjoy.
– 12 homesites with scenic views of Little Lake Nellie.
– Customizable interior design options to reflect your style.
-High tech individual septic sewer systems for each home.
