Anybody driving on Wiregrass Ranch Blvd. lately has doubtless observed the large quantity of recent development occurring proper subsequent to the Wiregrass Ranch group in Wesley Chapel’s northernmost roundabout. This lengthy, 50-acre parcel, that stretches north to south alongside the west aspect of Wiregrass Ranch Blvd. (from the primary roundabout all the way down to the third roundabout) will serve two future Wiregrass Ranch developments.
The southernmost seven acres (backside of map, proper) is at the moment slated for future skilled medical places of work — a 46,000-sq.-ft., two-story constructing, adopted by a 72,000-sq.- ft., three-story constructing at a later date. Plans had been submitted to the county in February and development might start later this yr.
The northernmost twelve acres (on the high of the map) will likely be for Persimmon Park Section 3, which can include 37 two-story, single household houses and 75 two-story townhomes (or 112 whole items). Development of the land and infrastructure already has been below means for a couple of months.
This can go away roughly 31 acres of the 50-acre parcel for drainage ponds and undisturbed conservation wetlands.
The primary two phases of Persimmon Park have had a couple of residence builders, however Section 3 will likely be completely David Weekley Houses, which is also at the moment ending the a part of Section 2 closest to Section 3 by the roundabout, alongside Orange Berry Dr. (once more see the map).
The 37 single-family houses will likely be much like that a part of Section 2, with the garages within the entrance of the home, or what the builder calls its “Backyard Sequence.” The heaps will likely be 40’ x 105’ and the salespeople have advised us that they anticipate that the brand new houses will likely be at a barely cheaper price level when put next with Section 2, by not providing as many upgrades. Present costs for the Backyard Sequence vary from $595,000-$695,000, so Section 3 patrons ought to anticipate barely decrease costs than that.
Nevertheless, the townhomes (picture beneath), which will likely be situated throughout from the single-family items, could have their garages on the rear of the home, which can open onto an alleyway, much like how greater than half the houses in Phases 1 and a couple of of Persimmon Park are laid out, and a part of what provides the group its distinctive appear and feel.
In Persimmon Park, most of those current “Cottage” collection houses’ entrance doorways face a avenue with parallel parking (which is sensible), and for just one row (14 items) of the brand new proposed townhomes, the entrance doorways additionally will face an identical highway.
For the entire different proposed townhomes (61 items), the entrance doorways will face widespread grass areas or the perimeter of the group, which is one thing of an odd design alternative, as a result of these residents might doubtless by no means enter their houses by way of their entrance doorways, which will likely be situated the place one would possibly anticipate a rear patio to be, solely providing a tiny (nearly unusable) entrance porch as a substitute.
One advantage of this structure, nonetheless, is that it permits for an outsized two-car storage, on a townhome lot which may in any other case solely be capable of accommodate a single-car storage, as these townhomes don’t want room subsequent to the storage for an entry.
It’s additionally factor that each one of those townhomes could have two-car garages, as a result of none of them could have usable driveways! The driveways will solely be a few ft from the storage doorways to the sting of the rear alleyway, which suggests future house owners will both need to park of their garages, or in one of many 32 parallel parking areas being shared by all 112 items.
Whereas it’s not 100% confirmed but, we had been advised by David Weekley Houses’ gross sales employees that certainly one of (or even perhaps the) solely townhome flooring plan that will likely be supplied would be the 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom, 1,751-sq.-ft. “Seawater” flooring plan.
This plan options one thing distinctive, the place the primary flooring half-bath is partially (actually two steps) up the steps, off to the aspect of the stairwell directional touchdown (sure you heard that appropriately) — not below the steps like most are used to seeing in newer townhomes. The toilet truly protrudes into the outsized storage to realize this set-up, whereas the house below the steps is reserved for storage. Pricing for these townhomes has not but been decided.
There was some sudden excellent news, nonetheless, for the longer term residents of this upcoming new part. In line with a allow submitted final month, Persimmon Park Section 3 will now be getting its personal swimming pool, so residents of the brand new part received’t need to share the prevailing pool serving the primary two phases of Persimmon Park.
