The Aurora section of Hammock Bay offers additional financial advantages, including
lower HOA fees, cable included with HOA dues, and irrigation supplied by a community
well rather than city water, helping keep monthly ownership costs lower.
Residents here enjoy scenic walking trails, resort-style pools, clubhouses, fitness facilities,
sports courts, and access to the beautiful Steamboat Landing waterfront area.
Between the newer construction, extensive upgrades, and lower ongoing ownership
costs, this home offers exceptional long-term value compared to many older homes in
the community.
Why wait to build when you can move right into a like-new home with upgrades already
completed? Some of the best features of this home are difficult to fully appreciate in
photos -- schedule your showing and experience it in person.
