District at Abbott’s Square

December 23, 2015

The District at Abbott’s Square is a planned master development of proposed single family detached townhomes, duplex homes and apartments located off of Simons Road in Zephyrhills, Pasco County, Florida.

This 160 acre parcel is mostly farmland, with approximately 40 acres of wetlands and natural water features which will be retained post construction.  The land is currently under agricultural assessment and is being farmed for hay and also cattle grazing.  The land is a combination of multiple properties under two separate ownership groups all managed and owned by CBD Real Estate Investment LLC of Celebration Florida.

The property was originally approved for 424 single family detached homes.  However, CBD and its partners have arranged to amend the approvals for a high density mixed use development of single family detached & attached townhomes, duplex homes, as well as three story garden style rental apartments.  There also will be a small neighborhood commercial section with 12000 feet of retail shops.

This property will have zoning and site plan approvals for approximately 1277 housing units plus the retail component.  CBD will entertain offers for this site in the $11 million price range.  CBD will also consider selling in sections, seller financing to qualified buyers and reasonable joint venture opportunities with experienced builders and developers.

Attached you will find the current proposed site plan, along with other maps and photos of the property.
