I recently got to tour the just completed model homes at Hampton Lakes, a brand new, new constuction single family neighborhood in Sarasota. Hampton Lakes is located 11.5 miles east of I-75 off Fruitville Road.  Yes, it's way out there, but it has some unique features certain buyers will be looking for. Hampton Lakes is offering 3 to 12 acre homesites, an extreme rarity among new home communities.  Future residents can build a separate garage that matches their home style, in addition to attached 2 or 3 car garages.  The size of the home sites is perfect for those buyers who value privacy, and want extra enclosed space for cars, boats, golf carts, or other grown up toys.
