If you have been shopping new construction in Viera, Florida, chances are the Chase II by Viera Builders has come across your radar. It is one of the most popular floor plans in Farallon Fields, and once you walk through it, it is easy to understand why. Three bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, two flexible living spaces, and an optional second floor loft give this home the kind of room that grows with a family without feeling wasteful for a couple or a work from home professional. Below is a full tour of what we walked through in the Farallon Fields model home, along with the standard features, the upgrades worth talking about, and the things to know before you sign a contract on a new build in Viera.
Chase II Floor Plan by Viera Builders at a Glance
The Chase II sits inside Farallon Fields, one of the newer Viera Builders neighborhoods off Stadium Parkway. On paper it is a three bedroom, three and a half bath single family home, but the plan lives larger than the numbers suggest. There are two distinct flex spaces on the main level that can flip between office, playroom, formal dining, or den depending on how your household actually uses square footage. If you need a fourth space, the optional upstairs loft adds a private zone with its own full bathroom, which makes it a natural fit for a guest suite, media room, teen retreat, or home gym.
What sets Viera Builders apart from some of the national builders on the Space Coast is that they are a Florida based, family owned builder that has been building in Brevard County for decades. That translates into floor plans that are actually designed for the way people live in Florida, not repurposed plans from a Midwest catalog.
Farallon Fields Model Home Entry
The first thing you notice when you walk into the Chase II model in Farallon Fields is the sight line. The entry flows straight through to the great room and out to the lanai, which is the Florida buyer's litmus test. If the indoor and outdoor spaces do not talk to each other, the plan is not really built for this market. Ceilings feel taller than the spec sheet suggests, and the natural light on the west facing lanai wall makes the whole space feel bigger than the actual footprint.
Standard Kitchen and Gourmet Upgrade Options
The kitchen is where most Chase II buyers spend their upgrade budget, and it is worth understanding the levels before you walk into design center. The standard kitchen already includes solid surface counters, a large island, and stainless appliances, so you are not starting from a stripped down base. The gourmet upgrade is the one to watch. It swaps in a built in wall oven and microwave, a separate cooktop, and a hood vented to the exterior instead of a recirculating microwave. If you cook seriously, or you entertain in a Florida kitchen where cooking smells and humidity actually matter, the gourmet package pays for itself in resale appeal even if you never turn on the wall oven.
Flooring, Impact Windows, and Lanai Upgrades
Two upgrades matter more on the Space Coast than almost anywhere else in the country, and this floor plan gives you the chance to lock both in from day one. The first is impact windows. In Brevard County, impact glass is not a nice to have. It is an insurance conversation, a peace of mind conversation during hurricane season, and a resale conversation when the next buyer's inspector opens their report. Getting impact windows built in during construction is dramatically cheaper than retrofitting later, and it eliminates the annual ritual of putting up shutters every time a storm forms in the Atlantic.
The second is the lanai package. Viera Builders lets you extend the covered lanai, add an outdoor kitchen rough in, and pre wire for a summer entertaining setup. In a market where buyers are moving here specifically for outdoor living, an upgraded lanai is one of the best dollars you can spend at contract.
For flooring, the standard tile package runs through the main living areas, and most buyers upgrade to a wood look tile or luxury vinyl plank in the bedrooms. Ask your sales rep about the current promotions on flooring because Viera Builders periodically rotates included flooring upgrades, and timing your contract right can save real money.
Primary Suite and Storage in Viera
The primary suite in the Chase II is on the main floor, which matters if you are relocating from up north and planning to age in place in Florida. The bedroom itself sits at the back corner of the house for privacy, and the primary bath includes a walk in shower with a bench, a large soaking tub option, dual vanities, and a private water closet. The walk in closet is genuinely walk in, not a coat closet with an aspirational name, and it connects through to the laundry room in some configurations, which is a small but valuable convenience.
Guest Bedrooms, Laundry, and Full Bath
The two secondary bedrooms sit on the opposite side of the home from the primary, giving guests or kids a real sense of privacy. Each has its own full bathroom access, so nobody is sharing a shower with a houseguest during a Florida vacation visit. The laundry room is a real room, not a closet, with space for side by side machines, upper cabinets, a folding counter, and a utility sink option that is worth adding if you have kids, dogs, or beach gear coming through the house.
Upstairs Loft and Buying New Construction in Viera
The optional upstairs loft is the sleeper feature of the Chase II. Adding the second floor gives you a large open loft space plus a full bathroom, and you can configure it as a guest suite, a home office that stays fully separated from the main living area, a media room, or a workout space. For Space Coast buyers relocating with adult children still at home, or families that host out of town relatives frequently, the loft essentially turns the Chase II into a four bedroom, four and a half bath home without paying for a fully custom plan.
What to Know Before You Buy New Construction in Viera
A few things worth understanding before you write a contract on a new build in Viera. First, incentives change month to month. Viera Builders and the other builders in Farallon Fields, Del Webb Sunbridge, Adera, and the surrounding Viera neighborhoods routinely rotate closing cost credits, rate buy downs, and design center dollars. Working with a Realtor who tracks those incentives across builders is how you make sure you are getting the best price available that week, not just the one the on site sales rep is authorized to offer.
Second, timelines matter. New construction in Viera has stabilized compared to the peak years, but you are still typically looking at nine to twelve months from contract to closing on a Chase II. If you are relocating, that timeline needs to line up with a lease ending, a home sale up north, or a temporary rental strategy on the Space Coast.
Third, register your Realtor on your first visit to the model. Builders in Viera protect the on site sales rep unless a Realtor is registered on the first walk through, which means you can lose your buyer representation, and the negotiation leverage that comes with it, just by stopping in on a Saturday to look. This is the single most common mistake we see relocation buyers make in Brevard County.
Is the Chase II by Viera Builders Right for You?
The Chase II works well for buyers who want the flexibility of a larger floor plan without stepping into full custom pricing, who prioritize a first floor primary suite, and who value a Florida based builder that understands what impact windows, lanai upgrades, and Space Coast layouts actually need to include. It is not the smallest plan in Farallon Fields, and it is not the largest, which is exactly why it is one of the most popular. If you are relocating to the Space Coast and comparing new construction options in Viera, put the Chase II on your model home tour list along with the other Viera Builders floor plans and the competing builders in the master planned community.
