Rotonda West
Spread out over twelve square miles, with a diameter of 11 miles, the deed-restricted Community of Rotonda West has the distinct shape of a wagon wheel. Round is quite an unusual layout for a town, but this shape is a welcome variety to all the surrounding square-shaped communities. The majority of the cities in the US are predictably built in squares – like a chessboard. It is a design that makes it easier to navigate and doesn’t come with surprises. So, Rotonda sticks out because it is round, which, by the way, always scares visitors unfamiliar with Rotonda. They often vision themselves circling forever. However, everybody has a GPS device nowadays, making it easier to find an exit, and so far, nobody has detected skeletons along the roadside.
Rotonda West, FL History and Residents
The developer. The question remains as to why he thought the community had to be circular. In architecture ( and not only in architecture), round structures are also associated with “softness.” Therefore, only a round structure can be the solution when looking for a “soft design,” and the developer wants something different. Hence, a new, round community was born on the drawing board.
Why are so few circular communities when this design is softer and more pleasing? There are always pros and cons in life and the “waste of land use” problem with a circular design. In a rectangular layout, you can use every inch, whereas, in a circular format, many areas are too small, therefore, rated “useless.”
With 17,000 residents, the Rotonda West Association is the largest mandated Homeowners Association in Florida. Although continually expanding, it is still a tranquil neighborhood with residents from all over the US and many countries overseas. A significant addition to the community is the recent acquisition of the 165 beautiful acres of Broadmoor Park, which features a new 8,000-square-foot Community Center with lakes, a lush tropical landscape, plenty of wildlife, and 3 miles of walking trails.
Rotonda West, FL Location
Rotonda West is located on the Southwest Coast of Florida on the Cape Haze Peninsula. The picturesque community enjoys miles of canals, abundant lakes, ponds, and nature preserves, home to a verity of wildlife. To specify this, here are a few numbers. 560 acres of water are part of Rotonda West. Those ponds, lakes, and 26 miles of canals, are responsible for abundant beautiful properties with Waterviews. The master-planned community also has over 20,000 acres of greenbelts and nature preserves. Those nature preserve areas are beautiful, creating much space for Florida’s wildlife. It is common to have bobcats, tortoises, egrets, or gators in your neighborhood. They all behave pretty well as long as you don’t interfere with their lifestyle.
Rotonda West, FL Golf Courses
The Five golf courses, totaling 99 holes, are strategically positioned within the community. Five golf courses, The Hills, Long Marsh, The Palms, The Links, and Pinemoor, occupy a significant wheel section. This structure doesn’t only stand for a lot of fun for golfers but also creates many golf-course view properties in Rotonda West for the residents. However, if you need more than 5 golf courses, there are plenty more only a short trip away.
Rotonda West, FL, and the Seven Neighborhoods
The seven sub-communities, golf courses, lakes, and canals are located between those spokes of the wheel. The southwest area of the “wheel “is a big nature preserve inhabited by alligators, bald eagles, and a wide variety of other “Florida Natives. ”
The homes are located along the spokes (streets) of the “wheel.” The names of the communities are Oakland Hills, Pebble Beach, Pinehurst, Broadmoor, Long Meadow, White Marsh, and Pine Valley. Outside of the wheel are the communities of Rotonda Lakes, Rotonda Heights, and Rotonda Sands.
Every section has a distinct character. Oakland Hills is the oldest section and the only section with underground utilities. Some areas have lush landscaping, almost like a jungle, while others are more open. None of the neighborhoods is a 55+ community, and none is gated, but the neighborhood watch is doing a fantastic job of keeping the community safe.
The Pine Valley Subdivision was the last “slice of the pie” to be developed. The homes are newer and larger. Pine Valley is close to thousands of acres of preserves with abundant natural wildlife.
