The Complete Guide to Mallory Park at Lakewood Ranch
If you're searching for a gated community in Lakewood Ranch that combines resort-style amenities, top-rated schools, and quality construction, Mallory Park deserves a spot at the top of your list. Built by DiVosta Homes — a PulteGroup brand with more than 70 years of Florida homebuilding experience — Mallory Park is a fully built-out community of approximately 436 single-family homes and townhomes across 179 acres, including 36 acres of lakes and wetland preserves.
Located between Lakewood Ranch Boulevard and Lorraine Road off SR-64, just two miles east of I-75, Mallory Park offers one of the most convenient locations in the broader Lakewood Ranch master plan. Whether you commute to Sarasota, Tampa, or work remotely, this community puts you close to everything without sacrificing the quiet of a gated neighborhood.
Community Overview
Mallory Park was built between 2016 and 2021 and is now fully built out, meaning every home on the market is a resale. The community features Mediterranean and French countryside architectural styling with front porches on every home, creating a cohesive and inviting streetscape. Controlled gated access provides security and privacy for residents.
DiVosta Homes is known for concrete block stucco (CBS) construction, which offers durability and can result in lower insurance premiums compared to frame construction — a significant consideration in coastal Florida. The builder earned a 4.1-star average homeowner rating and uses its Build Quality Experience program to maintain construction standards.
Home Types and Floor Plans
Mallory Park offers six distinct product lines with 18 or more floor plans, giving buyers a wide range of options from starter townhomes to spacious executive estates.
Manor Series (52 Homesites)
The Manor Series provides a solid entry point into single-family living in the community, with homes ranging from approximately 1,542 square feet and up. These homes are ideal for first-time buyers, young couples, or anyone looking for low-maintenance single-family living within a gated community.
Traditional Manor (52 Alley-Loaded Homesites)
The Traditional Manor series features alley-loaded garages, which means the garage faces the rear of the home rather than the street. This design creates a cleaner, more pedestrian-friendly streetscape and maximizes curb appeal.
Premier Series (75 Homesites)
The Premier Series steps up in size and features. These homes offer more living space and upgraded standard features, making them popular with growing families. The Summerwood model is a standout in this series — ranging from 1,861 to 3,070 square feet with 2 to 5 bedrooms and 2 to 4 bathrooms. It's a one-story design with an optional upstairs loft and an open kitchen featuring a center island.
Traditional Premier (72 Alley-Loaded Homesites)
Similar to the Traditional Manor, these homes feature alley-loaded garages but at the Premier level, offering more square footage and upgraded finishes.
Estate Series (66 Homesites)
The Estate Series represents the top tier of single-family living in Mallory Park. These homes can reach up to 4,242 square feet with as many as 6 bedrooms. The Citrus Grove model is particularly notable at 2,885 square feet with 4 to 5 bedrooms, 2.5 to 4 bathrooms, the owner's suite on the first floor, and a flexible den or flex space.
Townhomes
Mallory Park's townhomes offer approximately 1,800 square feet across 2 to 3 stories with 2 to 4 bedrooms and alley-loaded garages. These are an excellent option for downsizers, investors, or first-time buyers who want access to the full suite of community amenities at a lower price point.

The Community Development District (CDD) assessment ranges from $1,200 to $4,500 per year and appears on the annual tax bill as a non-ad valorem assessment. The CDD covers roads, stormwater management, landscaping, and infrastructure maintenance.
