The Ellington by Viera Builders has been generating real buzz — and Rachel's tour explains exactly why. This is a home that makes a statement the moment you walk through the door. But it's not for everyone. Here's the real breakdown on the layout, pricing, and who this floor plan actually delivers for.

What Makes the Ellington Stand Out

The Ellington sits at the upper end of Viera Builders' product line — designed for buyers who want wide-open living spaces, premium standard finishes, and a home that commands attention both inside and from the street. This is not an entry-level floor plan; it's for the buyer who has been waiting to find something genuinely special in Viera's new construction market.

Viera Builders is known for setting a high standard for included features that most national builders charge as upgrades: epoxy garage floors, crown molding in common areas, 8-foot interior doors, 5.25-inch baseboards, and tile roof (on applicable lot sizes). The Ellington takes those standards and builds on them with larger footprints and more premium layout choices.

Layout: Wide-Open and Functional

The Ellington's defining characteristic is its open-plan living space — kitchen, dining, and family room flow together in a way that feels expansive without feeling empty. High-end kitchen configurations with multiple upgrade options (gourmet package with 36-inch cooktop and hood, double oven option, microwave drawer) are available. The primary suite is generous by any standard — large closet, luxury bath configuration, and thoughtful bedroom placement for privacy.

The floor plan is designed around the way people actually live — where the cook is part of the conversation, where natural light is maximized, and where each room has clear purpose. Design details that look good in photos translate well in person, which isn't always the case with production homes.

Pricing

The Ellington is positioned in Viera Builders' luxury tier — expect pricing that reflects its size and finish level. As with all Viera Builders homes, base price does not include lot premium or design center selections, which can add meaningfully to the final cost. Incentives change regularly; contact Rachel and Nichole before visiting for current numbers.

For context within Viera: the Ellington competes with homes in the Laurasia neighborhood on 65-foot and 75-foot wide lots, where comparable homes start in the $900K+ range before lot premiums and upgrades. Buyers shopping this tier are typically comparing Ellington to Laurasia homes from other builders like Ashton Woods at Catamaran Cove and custom homes in Adelaide and Aropa.

Who Is This Home For?

The Ellington works best for families who need significant space (multiple bedrooms, a flex room, a guest suite), buyers who entertain regularly and want the kitchen and living areas to perform beautifully, and buyers who've been shopping the Viera market and want the premium experience without going fully custom (where build times can stretch 18–24 months). It's also a strong fit for buyers who've been watching Viera grow and want to get into the luxury tier while Viera Builders still has availability.

Who it's NOT for: buyers who prioritize ultra-private neighborhoods, those who need a 3-car garage (check availability by lot), or buyers with strict entry-level budget constraints. The Ellington is a serious home for a serious buyer.

Before You Visit

Reach out to Rachel and Nichole before visiting any Viera Builders model home. Once you walk through the sales office without an agent registered, you may not be able to use one — and the builder's representation is not your representation. There is no cost to having your own agent, and the benefit in navigating lot selection, incentives, and contract details is significant.

Beware

Call us BEFORE you walk into a model home or open house.

The sales rep works for the builder, not for you. Builders let you have your own agent, but you HAVE to name us on your first visit. Walk in without us and you can lose the right to bring us in on that purchase.

Text us at 321-212-7676 first. We meet you there. You still get the new construction. You also get two REALTORS who negotiate pricing, contract terms, inspections, and repairs every week.
