There is no place like home, and there is no place like Beacon Lake for your new home.

The new community in northern St. Johns County from BBX Capital Real Estate is the talk of the town among prospective homebuyers. Many are saying the community’s natural surroundings, lake amenities and architecturally distinctive style make Beacon Lake a place where they would love living.

The community’s iconic lighthouse monument entry sets the tone for Beacon Lake’s eye-catching homes, lakefront setting and exceptional amenities. The thoughtfully designed neighborhood has an intimate and friendly feel, making it an excellent place to live and raise a family.

Soon there will be even more excitement – five builder model homes are nearing completion at Beacon Lake and a grand opening celebration is planned for April 21. The community’s premier builder team, Dream Finders Homes and Mattamy Homes, are building coastal-inspired homes featuring welcoming front porches and open floor plans.

Visitors to the community will love exploring five fully furnished and decorated model homes showcasing the latest in home design trends. They will also love that the Lake House Amenity and Fitness Center is under construction, so homebuyers won’t have to wait long to enjoy the community’s amenities.

Beacon Lake’s lifestyle amenities will provide endless opportunities for indoor and outdoor recreation – and relaxation – for all ages. The community is anchored by a paddle-friendly 43-acre lake and Beacon Lake’s 8,200-square-foot Lake House Amenity and Fitness Center will be the social hub of the community, providing a gathering place where long-lasting friendships and happy memories are made. Beacon Lake will have pocket parks and ‘stop-a-whiles’ – some with firepits, swings and benches – and a bark park, making it easy to spend time outdoors and for neighbors to become friends.

Kids of all ages will enjoy cooling off at the Splash Park and fun pool, swimming laps in the Junior Olympic pool and catching some rays on the lakeside sand beach. Beacon Lake makes it possible to launch a paddleboard, kayak or canoe and paddle to your heart’s content on the water. The Crew House will provide storage as well as a launch area, making it easy to enjoy Beacon Lake. Workout warriors will appreciate the state-of-the-art fitness center with cardio and strength training areas such as free weights, spinning and a yoga studio.

Cook up something fun in the culinary studio and demonstration kitchen in the Lake House or relax and socialize under the covered porches or by the cozy outdoor fire pit.  Beacon Lake will have tennis courts, play fields and multipurpose paths for burning off extra energy.

Beacon Lake’s Phase 1 builders, Dream Finders Homes and Mattamy Homes, are offering innovative home designs ranging in size from 1,600 square feet to 3,500 square feet and priced from the mid-$200s to the $500s.
