Background
A brief history
Mirada is a master-planned community in San Antonio, in Pasco County, developed by Metro Development Group (MetroPlaces) on former ranchland just off State Road 52 and minutes from I-75. Its defining feature — and the reason it became one of the most-talked-about communities in the Tampa region — is its Crystal Lagoons amenity, a roughly 15-acre man-made lagoon that is among the largest of its kind in the country. The lagoon turned what would otherwise be a conventional suburban master-plan into a destination, with a beach-like swimming environment, paddling, and waterfront recreation as the community's centerpiece.
The master plan is large — planned at thousands of homes across single-family, villa, townhome, and active-adult neighborhoods built by multiple national and regional builders, including Lennar's dedicated 55+ section (marketed as Medley at Mirada) with its own gated area and private clubhouse. Like other MetroPlaces communities, Mirada was developed with a Community Development District (CDD) structure to finance and maintain the lagoon, roads, stormwater systems, and other community-wide infrastructure, and the developer has marketed the community with ultra-high-speed fiber internet as a standard feature.
Mirada is still actively building out. New phases and neighborhoods continue to open, which means buyers encounter a mix of brand-new construction and nearly-new resale, ongoing construction activity, and amenities that have come online in stages. Because the community falls within the San Antonio ZIP (33576), Mirada sales report under San Antonio in the MLS, and the community accounts for a large share of new-home activity carrying that town's name.
The feel
What it's like to live here
Mirada's identity is the lagoon. The roughly 15-acre Crystal Lagoons amenity gives the community a resort, beach-vacation feel that almost no other Pasco community can match, and it is the single biggest reason buyers choose here. Around it sits a large, modern master-plan of single-family homes, villas, townhomes, and a gated 55+ section, with the contemporary stucco-and-paver look of current Florida new construction and the trail, park, and gathering-space programming typical of a MetroPlaces community.
The honest tradeoffs: this is a large community still under construction, so buyers should expect ongoing building activity, dust and truck traffic in newer phases, and amenities that have arrived in stages. The lagoon and the master-plan infrastructure are funded through CDD assessments layered on top of HOA dues, so the all-in monthly cost runs higher than the sticker price suggests — that is the price of the resort lifestyle, and it should be underwritten honestly. The location off SR-52 is convenient to I-75 but is not walkable to a historic downtown; the lifestyle here is car-oriented and amenity-centered. Buyers who want the lagoon and a brand-new home will love it; those seeking established character or low carrying costs should look elsewhere.
The details
What to expect
The Crystal Lagoon Lifestyle
Mirada's centerpiece is its roughly 15-acre Crystal Lagoons amenity, among the largest man-made lagoons in the country, offering beach-like swimming, paddling, and waterfront recreation. It is the main reason most buyers choose Mirada and gives the community a resort, vacation-at-home feel. Access to the lagoon and its programming is part of what your community assessments fund, so understand how lagoon access works for your specific neighborhood and what is included versus ticketed for events. The lagoon is a genuine differentiator, but make sure the lifestyle premium fits how you'll actually use it before paying for it every month.
CDD & HOA Cost Reality
Mirada was developed with a Community Development District (CDD) that finances and maintains the lagoon, roads, stormwater, and other community-wide infrastructure, and those CDD assessments appear on the property tax bill on top of HOA dues. Combined, they add a meaningful amount per year, and the figure varies by neighborhood, lot, and phase. Part of a CDD assessment often retires construction bonds and may decline or expire over time, while the operations and amenity portion continues. Pull the actual tax bill for the specific address and confirm both CDD and HOA figures before comparing two Mirada homes on list price alone — the monthly difference can be substantial.
Construction-Phase Dynamics
Mirada is a large community still actively building out, so buyers in newer phases should expect ongoing construction — truck traffic, dust, and incomplete streetscapes — until their section finishes. Amenities have come online in stages, so confirm what is actually complete and open versus planned. New homes compete directly with nearly-new resales, sometimes a few doors apart, and builder incentives on rate buydowns and closing costs can be substantial. On any new build, budget for an independent inspection at pre-drywall and final regardless of builder reputation, and ask the builder for a realistic timeline on remaining community infrastructure.
Builders & Home Types
Mirada includes multiple builders and a range of product — single-family homes, villas, townhomes, and a dedicated gated 55+ section (Lennar's Medley at Mirada) with its own private clubhouse. That variety means floor plans, lot sizes, and finish levels differ widely across the community, and so do prices and carrying costs. The 55+ section operates with age restrictions and its own amenities separate from the general community. Decide which product type and which neighborhood fit your needs, then compare to recent sales of that specific type rather than a community-wide average, since a villa and a large single-family home are very different purchases here.
Location & Connectivity
Mirada sits off State Road 52 in San Antonio, just minutes from I-75, putting Wesley Chapel's retail — including Tampa Premium Outlets and The Shops at Wiregrass — and the broader Tampa region within practical reach. The developer has marketed the community with ultra-high-speed fiber internet as a standard amenity, a real plus for remote workers. The tradeoff is that the lifestyle is car-oriented and amenity-centered rather than walkable to any historic town center. Test-drive your actual commute at rush hour, and confirm the current internet and utility offerings for your specific home, since marketed features can change between phases.

Market Commentary
What the market is doing
Mirada is largely a builder-driven market, and the numbers reflect that. The last 12 months of MLS sales recorded 442 closings — a high volume that shows how fast this community is absorbing new homes — with a median of $352K. The range is fairly tight for a master-plan: the bottom tenth of sales came in under $255K, reflecting villas and townhomes, while the top tenth cleared $589K for larger single-family homes. That compression is typical of a community where most product is new and priced by builders rather than shaped by decades of varied resale. The most important thing I tell buyers here is to look past list price to the CDD and HOA carry, because the lagoon and infrastructure costs are real and recurring — budget for them up front. — Ryan Solberg
