WHAT IT COSTS TO OWN IN ESPLANADE

The monthly and yearly numbers that sit on top of the price, from recent MLS listings and published HOA details.

HOA DUES

$1,379 a quarter on most listings

That works out to about $460 a month. 21 of 30 recent MLS listings show $1,379 a quarter and 5 show $1,200. Dues cover the clubhouse and common areas and full lawn care: mowing, edging, trimming, fertilizing and reclaimed-water irrigation. We confirm the exact figure for any home you’re considering.

PROPERTY TAXES

Median $6,010 a year today

That’s what current owners paid on 29 recent listings, mostly 2025 bills. Florida reassesses a home at market value after it sells, so a buyer’s first bill is often higher than the seller’s. A homestead exemption lowers it for full-time residents.

CDD

None

Esplanade at Highland Ranch has no Community Development District, so there is no CDD assessment on the property tax bill. That sets it apart: five of the ten 55+ communities on our guide carry one (Palms at Serenoa, Sanctuary at Wellness Ridge, Trilogy Orlando, Del Webb Lakehaven and Del Webb Minneola).

UTILITIES

Natural gas service

Esplanade homes are plumbed for natural gas: 25 of 30 recent MLS listings show gas connected. Heat on most of them is electric, from heat pumps, so check each listing for which appliances run on gas, and budget for a gas bill alongside the electric bill.

LIFE INSIDE THE GATE

What Esplanade owners get from the association: the clubhouse, two pools, the courts and the trails.

THE CLUBHOUSE

Fitness, classes and a coffee bar

A fitness room, a multipurpose room for yoga and exercise classes, a card room, a treatment room, a coffee bar and a catering kitchen, with a full-time onsite lifestyle manager running the calendar.

POOLS

A resort pool and a resistance pool

A large resort-style pool and hot tub, plus a circular resistance pool kept at 84 degrees all year with a current flowing around it, for a gentle walking workout.

COURTS AND GAMES

Pickleball, bocce and tennis

Four pickleball courts, two bocce courts and a tennis court outside, and billiards inside the clubhouse.

OUTDOORS

A lanai, fire pit and boardwalks

A covered lanai, a fire pit, an outdoor kitchen and an event lawn at the clubhouse, and elevated boardwalks over the community’s lakes.

TRAILS

Three miles, linked to the region

Three miles of walking trails inside the community connect directly to the South Lake Trail, which links to the West Orange Trail, and the trail network also reaches Clermont’s Waterfront Park.

NEXT DOOR

A family community beside it

Esplanade sits beside the Canyons at Highland Ranch, a community for all ages, so children and grandchildren can live next door to a 55+ home.

Collections and Plans

Taylor Morrison sold Esplanade in three collections, Capri, Savona and Venice, all single-story. Plan names you will see in listings include the Farnese, Lazio, Santini and Pallazio; the Bergamo and Matera were among the last built in 2022.

You can call us at (407) 267-2319, email contact@century21hancock.com, or submit a contact form on this page. We respond quickly and will connect you with the right member of our team based on your needs.

During business hours, most inquiries receive a response within the same day — often within an hour. Messages sent after-hours or on weekends are typically returned the next business day.

Absolutely. Whether you’re early in the process, researching the market, or just curious — we’re here to answer questions and help you understand options. There is no obligation.

In most residential real estate transactions, the seller pays the broker commissions out of the final sale price. That means you get professional representation and negotiation usually at no direct out-of-pocket cost to you. We will explain exactly how this works in our first meeting.

Yes. Sellers in Clermont, Florida usually don't accept an offer without a pre-approval letter from a lender or proof of funds for a cash offer. If you don't have a lender yet, we can introduce you to local mortgage brokers who get deals done.

Once your offer is accepted by the seller, a standard closing takes 30 to 45 days. The time it takes to find the house depends on the market and your specific needs.

That is why we include inspection contingencies in your offer. If the inspector finds a bad roof or faulty plumbing, you have options. We can ask the seller to fix it, ask for a credit to fix it yourself later, or walk away from the deal and keep your initial deposit.
