Grand Isle In Viera East, Florida
Viera has three established 55 and better communities and most buyers only ever hear about two. Del Webb and Heritage Isle sit on the west side. Grand Isle is the east side answer, gated, purpose-built as active adult, and organized around Club Grand Isle.
The clubhouse runs about 6,200 square feet with a fitness facility, billiards and an art room, and outside there is a resort-style pool and jacuzzi, tennis, bocce and shuffleboard. There is a full-time activities director, which is the detail that separates a community with a calendar from a community with a room.
The maintenance structure is the other reason people choose it. The association maintains home exteriors, including repainting on roughly a five year cycle. If you want to lock the door and travel for three months, that is the whole point.
On golf, be precise, because listings here are often loose about it. Grand Isle does not front a course. It sits near several, the Viera East Golf Club, Duran, Turtle Creek and Baytree National, which is a real convenience but is not a fairway lot. with single-family homes running 1,422 to 2,204 square feet, three to four bedrooms and two baths.
