Tampa, FL (July 15, 2026): David Weekley Homes, one of the nation's largest privately held home builders, has acquired 156 homesites in the future master-planned community of Verona in central Pasco County. Home sales are expected to begin in summer 2027.

Led by Eisenhower Property Group and located along State Road 52 in Land O'Lakes, this 1,500-acre master-planned community will feature approximately 2,500 homes from multiple builders.

Verona marks the first land deal between Eisenhower Property Group and David Weekley Homes. Weekley will build 156 single-family homes on 50 40-foot homesites, 62 50-foot homesites and 44 60-foot homesites.

"This partnership with Eisenhower Property Group marks an exciting milestone for us as we continue strengthening our presence in the Tampa area by bringing our thoughtfully designed homes to one of Florida's fastest-growing regions," said Kristina Lloyd, co-division president for David Weekley Homes in Tampa. "We're eager to serve homebuyers with the exceptional customer service David Weekley Homes is known for and help them bring their dream home to life in a community designed to foster a balanced and connected lifestyle."

"These builder closings represent an important step in bringing the vision for Verona to life," said Jeffery Hills, president and CEO of Eisenhower Property Group. "Together, we're creating a thoughtfully designed community that will offer exceptional homes, amenities and quality of life for future residents."

The development is part of a larger 3,500-acre property. Approximately 2,000 acres will remain open space, agricultural land or recreational areas under a restrictive covenant with Pasco County.

Amenities in Verona are expected to include a clubhouse, fitness center, resort-style pool, pickleball courts, playgrounds, a paw park, picnic areas and a network of trails.
