Biscayne Homes Now in Epperson
B
iscayne Homes is a new homebuilder in Tampa Bay whose partners bring 30-plus years of expertise in exceptional construction practices and innovative design to the Wesley Chapel community of Epperson. “Compared to other homes in our price range, we believe we build a better home with superior construction methods and floor plans never seen before in Tampa Bay,” said David Adler, a partner in the business. Working with Adler is Emmanuel Stern, who also heads up the company’s Epperson community of 107 single-family homes. “All of our homes are built on 75foot lots — the largest homesites available in Epperson,” said Stern. “And, our homes have the closest proximity to the Crystal Lagoon in the community.” All Biscayne Homes residences are just a short walk or bicycle ride to Epperson’s unique Crystal Lagoon pool and recreation area. This 7.5acre, 16-million-gallon amenity has crystal-clear water that is perfect for swimming, kayaking, snorkeling, paddle-boarding, sailing on small boats and relaxing in its quiet cabana coves. “We chose Epperson as our first community because we want to be part of the Crystal Lagoon phenomenon and the fabulous amenities it offers our buyers,” said Stern.
OPEN HOUSE THIS WEEKEND
Biscayne Homes is hosting an open house of its Sabal 3 model home this weekend, April 27 and April 28, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and also the following weekend, May 2 and May 3. The Sabal 3 model is beautifully decorated and offers a spacious floor plan at 4,271 square feet. The home
more distinct floor plans, each with three unique elevations — Key West, Modern and Mediterranean. As a semi-custom builder, its floor plans can be customized to meet the needs of every buyer, including moving walls to create larger rooms. Homes begin at 3,174 square feet with the one-story Sabal 1, and go up to 5,227 square feet with the two-story Canary 3. Prices begin in the mid $400s.
CONNECTED CITY
This fabulous, high-end kitchen in the Sabal 3 model home flows gracefully into a large dining area that overlooks a huge covered lanai.
has coffered ceilings in its oversized living room, master bedroom and dining room; a high-end kitchen with an oversized island; and, 3 bedrooms on the first floor. The second floor boasts a large bonus room and 4th and 5th bedrooms. The home also has 4.5 baths. Every Biscayne Homes floor plan has the option to convert a side garage and adjacent flex room to a large and airy in-law suite, featuring a bedroom, private living area, full bath and lots of windows for natural lighting. The side garage is also ideal for active families to store bicycles, kayaks, paddleboards and even golf carts — all to enhance their new Crystal Lagoon lifestyle. Biscayne Homes executives are also excited to be introducing its superior construction process to the Tampa market.
“Our homes are built to the high standards required in south Florida, which means our homes are more wind and water resistant than most homes built in Tampa,” said Adler. “An example is our use of concrete block, which we use instead of wood, to build the second floor of our homes.” Biscayne Homes also incorporates the latest in international design trends that are popular in south Florida, but new to this area. “We design our homes so that all space is truly usable, and that all living areas flow smoothly together,” said Adler. “We offer as standard features 10-foot ceilings, and large bedrooms that easily accommodate queen-size beds and dressers.”
HOMES STARTING IN THE MID $400S
In addition to the Sabal 1, 2 and 3 floor plans, Biscayne Homes offers six
Located inside Pasco County’s Connected City corridor, Epperson residents have ULTRAFi, which offers 1 gigabit of Internet speed and up to 1 gigabit at individual homes. “Living in an ULTRAFi community means there are no buffering delays as residents play, watch, game, surf and stream by the pool, on the trails, at the playground and right inside their homes,” said Stern.

attamy Homes’ two new townhome communities in Lutz and Citrus Park are selling fast because buyers love the fabulous assortment of close-by things to do, from recreational outings to fabulous shopping to an epicurean array of restaurants. “Our buyers at Avea Pointe in Lutz and Lakeview at Citrus Park are active, engaged families who love being so close to so many things to do,� said Kathleen Dec, marketing manager at Mattamy Homes. “These are perfect communities for people who want fun things to do with family and friends of all ages.� Avea Pointe is five minutes away from the expansive Lake Park, with its non-motorized boat access, hiking trails, BMX track and multiple playgrounds. Over at Lakeview, its homes overlook tranquil Gant Lake at the end of Tom Fuller Road, where residents have a community pier for fishing, kayaking and paddle-boarding. Both communities also are an easy drive to Brooker Creek Headwaters Nature Preserve, with its flats fishing, walking trails and observation tower. Plus, there are nearby golf courses and equestrian stables, ice skating in Wesley Chapel, and even hot air balloon rides in Lutz when the weather is right. When it comes to shopping, Avea Point is just 20 minutes to Tampa Premium Outlets and The Shops at Wiregrass in Wesley Chapel, while Lakeview is minutes away to Westfield Citrus Park Mall, and a quick trip down the Veterans Expressway to International Plaza and Westshore Plaza in Tampa. An array of well-appointed townhomes are ready this spring at both communities, with quick move-in

Cornerstone Gives You Endless Water With A Tankless Hot Water Heater
N
othing is worse than running out of hot water when your family is getting ready for school, work or play. Which is why many households are converting to a tankless hot water heater and replacing their traditional 40-gallon tank that sits in the corner of their garage. “Endless hot water is the number one reason why local families are going tankless,” said Miguel Silva, plumbing manager for Cornerstone Air Conditioning, Plumbing and Electrical in Land O’ Lakes. Silva and his team of 11 plumbers install between seven and 10 tankless water heaters a month, and that pace is accelerating with the introduction of a new tankless system powered by electricity. “Tankless systems for homes with gas have been around for many years, but it’s only recently that the technology has become available for electric heaters,” said Silva. “We work with a manufacturer out of Arizona called trutankless, which has a fantastic system that even has an app that makes it fun and easy to keep track of your water usage and to send alerts.” The trutankless system is adaptable for homes from one bathroom to four. It provides endless hot water 24 hours a day, for half the cost of a traditional hot water tank. “The energy efficiency of a tankless system will save a family at least 15 percent on their monthly power bill,” said Silva. “In less than five years, your tankless system will pay for itself!” Another benefit of a tankless water system is that it mounts directly on your garage wall, freeing up space on the floor that a traditional water tank requires. “The trutankless system is contained in a neat, 2-foot by 2-foot square that juts out less than a foot from the wall. The unit is hardly noticeable and really cleans up the look of the garage,” said Silva. Manufactured in Arizona, the trutankless system is a U.S. company
that boasts an outstanding service record. “Cornerstone has installed over 100 trutankless systems in the past two years, and we’ve had very few service issues,” said Silva, who adds that the system is virtually maintenance-free. Many homeowners decide on a tankless hot water system when their old tank begins to leak, or no longer keeps up with the family’s hot water demands. “After comparing the cost of replacing their old water tank, which is 100-year-old technology that is very energy inefficient, most homeowners switch to a tankless system because it costs 50 percent less to operate, plus gives them hot water on demand with absolutely no fuss,” said Silva. Traditional water tanks work 11 hours a day to keep water hot, even in the absence of hot water demand, and wear out and need to be replaced every seven to 10 years. Replacement cost to install a traditional hot water
tank is between $1,200 and $1,500. By comparison, Silva said a tankless system costs about $3,000, which includes upgrading a home’s electrical system to accommodate the installation of the trutankless system, as well as a plumber. “Cornerstone always sends a plumber and an electrician to the home for a tankless water system install. This is not a do-it-yourself project, and requires both electrical and plumbing permits,” said Silva. Most Cornerstone installs are completed in less than a day, and there is almost no inconvenience to
the family. Same day installs are scheduled for emergency jobs, especially when a family’s old water tank starts leaking. The manufacturer of the trutankless system reports that $8.1 billion could be saved annually in the U.S., if American families switched to tankless heaters. “Tankless technology also eliminates corrosion, leaks, scalding and explosions that sometimes occur with old-style tanks, all which can be hazardous to your family,” said Silva. “The trutankless product is something that Cornerstone is very proud to offer —a sophisticated solution that gives families something they dream about – endless hot water.” Ready to say goodbye to cold showers?

Enjoy Lake Padgett With A Waterfront Cardel Home
T
here are more lakes in Land O’ Lakes than anywhere else in Tampa Bay. And, one of the area’s most desirable is Lake Padgett, a spring-fed, 200-acre lake that is home to an exclusive Cardel Home community. Cardel is the newest homebuilder on Lake Padgett, which has been home to beautiful waterfront homes for over 50 years because of its peaceful cypress-lined shores, and stunning sunrises and sunsets. Lake Padgett families enjoy boating, fishing, water skiing, paddle-boarding, canoeing and kayaking. And, today, they can also enjoy boating to lakeside destinations. Just south of Cardel’s community, The Enclave At Lake Padgett on the lake’s western shore, are fun boating destinations that have opened in the past few years. This includes The Tiki Cove, which has a dock for boaters to tie up to, live music and beach volleyball games on the weekends. Even closer to The Enclave is another waterfront destination, In The Loop Brewery, where boaters anchor close to the beach and planning for a dock is underway. This popular local spot has an on-site brewery, tap and tasting room, and a huge outdoor deck and beer garden overlooking the lake. “Most lakeside communities offer homeowners traditional waterfront views and boating, but living on Lake Padgett offers even more, because it has destinations you can easily boat to,” said Brian Phillips, vice president of sales and marketing at Cardel Homes. There are only a handful of homesites remaining on the lake, which is why Phillips is so excited about The Enclave At Lake Padgett. “It’s almost unheard of to find new home construction on Lake Padgett. It’s exciting as a builder to be offering such beautiful, large lots in such a premium location,” said Phillips. Many people who discover The
Enclave At Lake Padgett say it’s one of the best kept secrets in Land O’ Lakes. “Part of this community’s intrigue is that one would never expect to find such a gem tucked away in the heart of Land O’ Lakes,” said Phillips. Conveniently located off Land O’ Lakes Boulevard (U.S. 41), just two miles north of State Road 54, the secluded entrance to The Enclave assures residents of privacy that they will share with just a handful of other homeowners. All of The Enclave’s homesites can be permitted for docks that are large enough for fishing, waterski and pontoon boats. And, unlike other developments on Lake Padgett, none of its docks are shared between homeowners. “This prestigious community has just eight large homesites available — all very private and with no CDD fees,” said Phillips. In addition to its waterfront living,
The Enclave is just 15 minutes from Wesley Chapel’s shopping and dining destinations, including Tampa Premium Outlets, The Shops of Wiregrass and the newly opened Cypress Creek Town Center. Cardel Homes is offering three, one-story plans at The Enclave, all with tile roofs and brick paver driveways as standard features. Homes range from 3,000 to 4,260 square feet, and offer four bedrooms, three or four baths and three-car garages. The St. Lucia model home is ready now for a quick move-in. This stunning home is 3,336 square feet with four bedrooms, three baths, and a large front porch and covered lanai. The home is on a wooded lot, and has a large front porch and covered lanai in the back. An oversized dock is just steps away from the backyard, and is perfect to dock a boat and enjoy the natural setting. The St. Lucia inventory home, in-
813-598-6646 CardelHomes.com/Tampa Sales Center: 4081 Epic Cove, Land O Lakes, FL 34638
cluding its waterfront dock, is listed at just $650,000. If you prefer to choose your homesite and select a floor plan, colors and finishes, a Cardel home in The Enclave begins at $494,900. “The Enclave At Lake Padgett is a perfect community for families wanting to move up to an exclusive, private, lakefront community with no CDD,” said Phillips. “It offers the best of both worlds —all the recreation and things to do on Lake Padgett, with the convenience of being close to so many shopping and dining options.”
