Living Life on the Water’s Edge

February 21, 2007

Real estate professionals confirm what over 1000 Bellalago families have known all along. This upscale, gated community being developed by Avatar Properties Inc. is simply the best.

Winner of over 30 awards including a Gold Excel Award as Florida’s Best Master-Planned Community, Bellalago boasts one of the most sought-after lifestyles in Central Florida featuring over one mile of shoreline on Lake Tohopekaliga (Toho), world-famous bass fishing lake and home of the 2007 Bassmasters Elite Series Tournament in September.

Lush landscaping and native oak groves complement individual neighborhoods of luxurious Mediterranean-style homes that overlook a 320-acre inland lake with interconnecting waterways offering direct access to Lake Toho via a boat lift.  A resort-style recreation complex nestled alongside Lake Toho features an open-air grille and pavilion, state-of-the-art fitness center, and a beautiful aquatic complex that includes a free-form pool with water slide, junior Olympic pool, spa, wading pool, and a children’s water park.

Amenities also include tennis, basketball and volleyball courts, a children’s playground, band shell, 1300-foot-long boardwalk on Lake Toho, a boat ramp/lift at Lake Toho, walking and biking trails, and an activities program that offers something for everybody.

Bellalago and the neighboring Isles of Bellalago offer a host of premium waterfront homesites and a roster of Mediterranean-style plans offering living areas up to 3,164 sq. ft. Features include tile roofs, brick paver driveways and walkways, 9’4” volume ceilings, spacious great rooms and family rooms, gourmet island kitchens, dens, lofts, formal dining rooms, luxurious master suites with sitting areas, and sumptuous master baths. A host of options including tray and 11’4” ceilings, 5th and 6th bedrooms, fireplaces, hobby and game rooms and swimming pools.

The Isles of Bellalago will add to Bellalago’s already fabulous multi-million-dollar amenity package when it opens an upscale amenity complex this spring, featuring a clubhouse, fitness center, junior Olympic pool, heated spa, children’s water park and tot lot.

All this plus Bellalago Academy, a neighborhood K-8 charter school featuring 1,640 student stations, a media center with state-of-the-art computer technology, library, cafeteria, multi-purpose gymnasium, softball fields, tennis courts, and an oval running track. And right next door, the new $49 million Liberty High School (grades 9-12) is scheduled to open for classes in August 2007 with 2,360 student stations, media center, multi-purpose gymnasium, auditorium, cafeteria, art room, skills development computer labs, music rooms for band and chorus, and a host of outdoor facilities including a lighted football stadium, lighted baseball and softball diamonds, two soccer fields, six lighted tennis courts, and four basketball courts.

This is what it’s like to live life on the water’s edge at Bellalago.
