About Mattamy Homes: Who Builds Waterbrooke?

Mattamy Homes is North America's largest privately owned homebuilder, with more than four decades of experience designing communities across the United States and Canada. In Central Florida, Mattamy has earned a strong reputation for thoughtful floor plans, quality finishes, and communities that feel established from day one. Buyers at Waterbrooke benefit from Mattamy's in-house design studio, structured warranty program, and a track record of delivering on timelines — qualities that matter when you're building from the ground up.

What Floor Plans & Prices Are Available at Waterbrooke?

Waterbrooke offers a mix of Coastal, Craftsman, and Florida Traditional architecture across both townhomes and single-family homes. Townhomes start from the low $330s, making Waterbrooke one of the more accessible new construction options in the Clermont area. Single-family homes typically begin in the mid-$400s and climb into the high $600s and beyond for larger, upgraded plans.

Popular single-family plans include the Glacier Bay — a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home of approximately 2,278 sq. ft. with a 3-car garage, walk-in pantry, flex room, and covered lanai. Other plans such as the Dahlia, Pensacola, and Glades offer additional options for growing families or multigenerational living, with some designs featuring up to 5 bedrooms and nearly 3,000 sq. ft. of living space.

What Amenities Does Waterbrooke Offer?

This is where Waterbrooke really stands out among new build communities in Clermont. The community amenity package is remarkably complete for a neighborhood in this price tier and includes:

• Resort-style swimming pool with cabana
• State-of-the-art fitness center
• Open-air yoga lawn
• Splash pad for younger children
• Tot lot and playground
• Tennis courts
• Paw park (dedicated dog park)
• Walking and jogging trails
• Community park and green spaces
• Gated entry for added privacy

Because Waterbrooke has no CDD, these amenities are folded into a single, modest HOA — a meaningful long-term savings for buyers comparing newer Central Florida master-planned communities.

Location & Convenience: Where Is Waterbrooke?

Waterbrooke sits on the south side of SR-50 in Clermont, FL, roughly halfway between downtown Clermont and Winter Garden. That central positioning gives buyers quick access to Florida's Turnpike and SR-429, with an easy commute to Horizon West, Walt Disney World, and downtown Orlando. Hamlin Town Center and Winter Garden Village — two of the region's most popular shopping, dining, and entertainment destinations — are both within a short drive.

Families will appreciate the Lake County Schools assignments: Lost Lake Elementary, Windy Hill Middle School, and East Ridge High School. The community is also close to Lake Louisa State Park, the South Lake Trail, and the medical campuses along Hancock Road — a convenient combination of outdoor recreation, healthcare, and everyday essentials.

What Makes Waterbrooke Stand Out?

A few things set Waterbrooke apart from other new construction Clermont Florida communities. First, the no-CDD structure keeps monthly carrying costs lower than many comparable neighborhoods — a big deal for long-term affordability. Second, the gated entry and wellness-oriented amenities (yoga lawn, fitness center, trails) appeal to both young professionals and retirees looking for an active lifestyle. Third, the mix of townhomes and single-family homes means you can right-size without leaving the community — an often-overlooked benefit for empty nesters and growing families alike.

If you're also exploring new build communities near Winter Garden, Waterbrooke pairs well with Bella Trae Realty's other community spotlights, including Lake Star at Ovation and Silverleaf Oaks in Horizon West. Each offers a different price point and lifestyle, and I'm happy to help you compare them side by side.
