Risewell at Country Club Estates

When did the laundry room become the most envied space in a home? Risewell gets it. At Country Club Estates, they've engineered a laundry suite that connects to both your primary bedroom and your main living area — not as an afterthought, but as a feature.

The kitchens are built for people who actually cook: venthood over the range, stacked microwave and wall oven with drawers underneath, granite counters, tile floors. All three floor plans are four bedrooms with three-car garages on 80-foot lots. Covered lanais are standard. Nine-foot-four ceilings and eight-foot front doors come with the territory. The primary bathroom has dual independently-plumbed shower heads — because sharing my shower with my partner is a great way to start my day, but I don't need to share the water too.

The optional multi-gen plan includes an exterior entrance to the next-gen suite, which means if you're thinking about adding guest quarters or a rental unit down the line, the foundation is already there.

Think Viera-level quality without the master-planned overhead. You get the gated community feel, proximity to Melbourne amenities, and the $500s price point — minus the CDD fees that come with larger developments.

HOA is $61 a month. No CDD. The gate is the only amenity — because sometimes what you don't build matters as much as what you do.

This is the community for the buyer who's tired of compromise. Price takes a backseat to how it actually feels to live there.
