Dostie Homes Announced as Newest Builder in Nocatee

In September, Dostie Homes was named the newest builder within the prestigious Twenty Mile section of Nocatee, the 3^rd best-selling Community in America! The Parc Group made the announcement when releasing plans for its newest community, The Crossing at Twenty Mile. Dostie Homes has worked with The Parc Group previously, building within Pablo Creek Reserve, Pablo Bay, and Timberlin Parc. “We are excited to be partnering with The Parc Group again,” explains President Chris Dostie, “Nocatee is a great community and we are honored they chose us to be in the prestigious group of preferred builders.”

The Crossing at Twenty Mile is the newest addition to Nocatee’s historic Twenty Mile community of homes. Located in St. Johns County just west of the Intracoastal Waterway, Twenty Mile will be one of Nocatee’s most distinctive communities, with large oak trees, split-rail fencing and a rustic, Old-Florida style. One of the great historic features is the brick pavers placed at the entrances from the original County Road 210; the charm is evident as soon as you enter the neighborhood. Following through with that Old-Florida feel, Dostie Homes will be offering seven new floorplans within their Classic Series of homes. Floorplans will range from 1,961 square feet to 2,749 square feet and start in the low $300s. Four homes will be one-story plans, with an optional second story bonus room and bedrooms as pre-planned options. Three homes will be two-story plans with large master suites downstairs and secondary bedrooms and loft spaces upstairs. The elevations will feature authentic architectural styles that emulate the historic Florida lifestyle. Many of the homes will include front porches, reminiscent of the southern home styles enjoyed with outdoor living years ago.  Dostie Homes will be building on 50’ home sites situated among natural preservation, some including lake views. It will truly be the perfect location for those looking to build their dream home within the highly desirable St. Johns County. The county has been ranked on the top ten lists of best school districts in the state of Florida. In 2014, The New York Times ranked St. Johns County the number one county in the state for quality of life. It’s evident that Nocatee is situated in one of the best locations in Florida and The Crossing at Twenty Mile will be a wonderful addition to the development.

A unique feature of the Nocatee design is that every home is within walking distance to at least one of the community’s many parks. Within The Crossing at Twenty Mile, residents will be able to enjoy Twenty Mile Post; a serene neighborhood park with covered pavilion, playground, sports fields and nature trails. They will also be close to Twenty Mile Park, which will include a pool, dog park and ball fields, within the Twenty Mile Village neighborhood. Showcasing natural preserve views in and around the majority of both parks, they are sure to be among many of the great spots that families will enjoy within Nocatee. Senior Vice President Bruce Lingerfelt explains, “I have been building homes in Northeast Florida for over 40 years and there simply isn’t a community more thoroughly dedicated to all facets of the modern family lifestyle than Nocatee.”

With the addition of Dostie Homes as an exclusive builder within Nocatee, many have already expressed interest in the new floor plans that have yet to be unveiled. One thing that potential buyers are excited about is what Dostie Homes calls, Personal Design Time (or PDT).  Clients will get to spend time with the in house architectural team to review their selected home of choice and discuss personalization options to meet their individual needs. The on staff Interior Design Consultant will also meet with each homeowner to choose the perfect features and finishes to make the home exclusively theirs.

The highly anticipated Dostie Homes model is expected to break ground at the end of October and open to the public at the end of January.  The Hemingway plan is a two story home with 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and 2,749 square feet of living space. The downstairs space includes a two story foyer and expansive master suite with en-suite bathroom and two walk-in closets. Secondary bedrooms and a bonus loft are featured upstairs with a “tower room”, which is a unique feature to the Dostie Homes plan. The coastal inspired façade will showcase the Old-Florida lifestyle that makes The Crossing at Twenty Mile unique within Nocatee. Interested parties can be added to the Dostie Homes VIP list for updates as they become available by emailing Nocatee@dostiehomes.com.
