Minto Communities USA, a real estate developer and builder, is moving forward with plans to construct the first townhome neighborhood within the 3,800-acre community of Westlake in Palm Beach County. Four model homes are currently under construction in The Crossings of Westlake, with sales beginning when the new models open later in the first quarter of 2022.
Minto plans to build 130 luxury townhome residences from the newly created Bay Collection featuring three distinct floorplans—Aventura, Brickell and Biscayne. Each plan will provide three bedrooms with 2.5 bathrooms or four bedrooms with 3.5 bathrooms. Unit sizes range from 1,669 to 2,113 square feet. The community will consist of four and five-unit buildings and three unique architectural styles for the exteriors—Coastal Contemporary, Modern Bermuda and Urban Transitional.
All floorplans feature an island kitchen with granite countertops and stainless-steel Whirlpool kitchen appliances and a full-size Whirlpool washer and dryer. The residences will also include two-car garages, brick-paver driveways and entry walks, covered lanais and private backyards. Residents will have full access to the amenities at the Westlake Adventure Park.
“Our vision has always been to offer a variety of housing choices at Westlake and now we are proud to add luxury townhomes to the mix,” says Mike Belmont, president of Minto Communities USA. “They will be a nice complement to our single-family neighborhoods, and I expect them to be very popular with customers.”
The Crossings will be the sixth Minto neighborhood to be developed since Westlake opened for home sales in October 2017. Last summer, Minto opened The Orchards with 358 single-family homes in phase one starting in the $400,000s and The Estates, an enclave of 76 luxury homes on 75-foot homesites starting in the $500,000s. Altogether, Westlake is approved for 4,500 homes and more than 2 million square feet of non-residential space. Minto recently began construction on phase two of the Westlake Adventure Park, including a lap pool, basketball courts, multi-purpose building and event lawn.
Commercial development is also increasing in the community, with the city council approving site plans for a new shopping center, a cluster of restaurants known as The Shoppes of Westlake Landings and a new family entertainment center known as Adrenaline World. Construction on both projects is expected to start in 2022.
The Crossings of Westlake is located at 16610 Town Center Parkway North on Seminole Pratt Whitney Road between Southern Blvd. and Northlake Blvd. For more information on the community, visit www.WestlakeFL.com.
