Broadleaf is a newer single-residential neighborhood in Parrish, in northern Manatee County, built by SimplyDwell Homes, a division of Neal Communities (SimplyDwell Homes, 2026). The community is organized around outdoor gathering space, with an event lawn, a covered pavilion, a dog park, and a playground rather than a resort amenity center.
The homes are new-construction, concrete-block single-family plans in two series, currently spanning roughly 1,240 to 2,600 square feet with two to five bedrooms and two-car garages (SimplyDwell Homes, 2026). The pitch is attainable pricing for new construction, which makes this a production-builder buy where the incentive package and rate program matter as much as the base price.
A notable fee fact is that Broadleaf carries no CDD assessment, which the builder highlights directly, while an HOA does apply. That keeps the all-in carrying cost simpler than many newer Parrish communities that layer a CDD bond onto the tax bill, but the HOA line still has to be confirmed per the current assessment.
Parrish itself is one of the fastest-growing parts of Southwest Florida, with new schools, a planned hospital, and major master plans filling in along the I-75 and US 301 corridors (Your Observer and Manatee County, 2025). Broadleaf rides that growth wave, so the work is buying the right plan and lot, and reading the incentive math honestly against where resale value will sit.
