John Neal Homes Breaks Ground on New Model in University Park

John Neal Homes broke ground recently on its newest model, The Savoy, in the Landsdowne Crescent neighborhood in University Park. The Savoy is an expansive one-story floorplan with 2,547 square feet, three bedrooms, two and half bathrooms, a grand entry, and a den. The Savoy model will be located on the third hole of the University Park golf course, with beautiful nature views from throughout the home. 

John Neal Homes is the exclusive builder in the newest section of University Park where homes will be secluded yet close to everything, with wonderful views of mature trees and the golf course.

“Lansdowne Crescent will feature single-family homes in the neo-classical design for which University Park has become known,” said John Neal, president and CEO of the Lakewood Ranch based luxury home building company. “All of the homes will look onto a crescent designed landscaped park centerpiece as the focal point for the neighborhood. It will truly be something unique and beautiful,” said Neal. The Savoy model is expected to be open in February of 2014.
