Hines, the Dallas-based developer behind Palencia, has begun construction on Markland, a new 345-home community in St. Johns County.
The community is off International Golf Parkway, just east of the Interstate 95 interchange, a location that provides access to employment and retail centers in Jacksonville and St. Augustine.
Markland will provide residents with resort-quality amenities, including a zero-entry pool framed by cabanas and lounge areas, a fitness center and yoga studio, a gathering and entertainment room, tennis courts, a children’s playground and an interconnected network of parks and walkways.
Homes on oversized lots will initially be offered from the low $300,000s to more than $600,000.
The Markland Manor House, the amenity centerpiece of the community, will be designed in a Greek Revival style and accompanied by formal gardens. The center will be linked to a communitywide network of trails and parks.
Hines is in the process of engaging a team of builders to create the community’s diverse, but complementary, offering of homes.
New models homes will be open this year. For more information, visit markland.com or call (904) 513-5740.
