Isla Mirada Homes for Sale in San Antonio, FL

Isla Mirada is the DRB Homes gated townhome section inside Mirada, the Metro Development Group lagoon community off SR 52 in San Antonio, Pasco County. It was formerly marketed as Townes at Mirada before the rebrand, so both names show up in older listings and maps.

One thing to get straight before anything else: despite what some third-party summaries imply, this is a townhome community, not single-family. Two plans were offered as of July 2026: the Aruba, 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, 1,788 square feet, from $359,990, and the Bimini, 3 to 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, 1,995 square feet, from $379,990. Every home gets a 2-car garage, which is unusual for townhome product at this price point in the corridor.

Quick move-in homes were listed from $369,990 to $419,990 on July 10, 2026, on Spanish Mission Road and Azure Beach Drive, and the price spread there is the lot: the higher-priced quick move-ins sit on the Azure Beach Drive side toward the lagoon. Some aggregators still show an older $349,990 starting price, so treat any published number as a snapshot and confirm current pricing with the sales office.

DRB markets the section as the only gated luxury townhomes with a 2-car garage backing the Mirada Lagoon. That is a builder claim, but the two parts that matter are checkable: whether the gate is installed and operating, and which specific homesites actually back the lagoon on the site plan. Confirm both on your homesite before you attach a premium to either.

Third-party data indicates roughly 112 homes planned in the section; confirm the current lot count and remaining inventory with the builder. DRB advertised up to $40,000 in flex cash on select to-be-built homes through July 31, 2026, usable toward closing costs, rate buydowns, or design options; incentives change monthly, so verify what is live when you shop.

The headline amenity is the Mirada Lagoon: 15 acres of filtered swimming water with beach areas, kayaking, paddleboarding, and event programming, billed by the developer as the largest man-made lagoon in the U.S. Its public grand opening was reported in June 2023.

Understand the lagoon's structure before you budget, because it trips up buyers: the lagoon is independently owned and operated by Metro Lagoons, not by the HOA or the CDD. Residents pay a separate lagoon membership, published at $35 per month plus tax on the developer's 2023 fee sheet, plus a one-time initiation fee at closing that was $1,000 plus tax for townhomes in 2023. Confirm the current 2026 fee schedule and exactly what resident access includes, since the lagoon also sells day passes to the general public.

Beyond the lagoon, Mirada is a large, still-building master plan: walking trails, a dog park, a tot lot, and green space, with Metro's ULTRAFi internet marketed across its connected-city communities. In February 2026 the developer announced Mirada was ranked among America's top-selling master-planned communities of 2025. That cuts both ways for a buyer: strong momentum and amenities, but also years of construction traffic and new sections competing with your resale.

The location is east-central Pasco County off SR 52. The I-75 interchange is several miles west, and the established Wesley Chapel retail, including Tampa Premium Outlets and The Shops at Wiregrass, anchors errands to the southwest. Drive your actual commute at rush hour before you buy; SR 52 carries the corridor's growth traffic.

Stack the full monthly carry in writing before you fall for the base price, because Mirada layers fees: a townhome HOA reported around $300+ per month (aggregator data, July 2026, listed as covering exterior grounds and structure maintenance, pest control, and cable/internet), the Mirada Master HOA at $237.01 per quarter on the 2023 fee sheet, the CDD assessment on the tax bill, and the separate lagoon membership. Get each figure current and in writing from the builder and from Breeze, the community manager.

Verify the CDD math for your specific homesite on the Pasco County tax roll. Mirada runs two districts, Mirada CDD and Mirada II CDD, and the 2023 fee sheet showed townhome totals from about $950.51 per year (lagoon townhomes, O&M only, no debt service) to $1,693.01 (Mirada II townhomes, with debt service). Third-party 2026 reporting cites higher current figures. Which district and which rate applies to Isla Mirada's lots is exactly the kind of thing to confirm on the tax roll, not from a sales brochure.

Confirm what the school zoning actually is by address with Pasco County Schools. Listings commonly show San Antonio Elementary, Pasco Middle, and Pasco High (all in the Dade City area), but the newer Cypress Creek and Kirkland Ranch campuses sit within a few miles, and Pasco County has been redrawing boundaries as the corridor builds out. Do not rely on an aggregator's school list here.

Confirm which Mirada section you are actually buying. Mirada contains many builder sections at very different price points: D.R. Horton, Lennar, Homes by WestBay, Maronda, Casa Fresca, Ryan Homes townhomes from the $260s, Shores at Mirada by Dream Finders, DRB's own single-family Eagles Cove at Mirada from the $550s, and the age-restricted Medley at Mirada. Comps, fees, and HOA structures differ by section, so make sure every document says Isla Mirada.

Inside Mirada itself, Isla Mirada's direct competitor is the Ryan Homes townhome section, which started in the $260s as of mid-2026: materially cheaper, but without the gate, the 2-car garage on every home, or the lagoon-backing position DRB markets. Against DRB's own Eagles Cove at Mirada, from the $550s, Isla Mirada is the lower-priced, lower-maintenance route into the same lagoon lifestyle, trading a yard and single-family scale for the lock-and-leave structure. Outside the master plan, the honest comparison is Epperson in Wesley Chapel, Metro's first lagoon community, where DRB also builds lagoon-area townhomes: Epperson is closer to the Wesley Chapel retail and I-75, while Mirada has the larger lagoon and newer product. The summary: Isla Mirada wins on the gate, the standard 2-car garage, the lagoon-backing sites, and new-construction warranties, and gives ground on price versus the other Mirada townhomes and on fee stack versus non-lagoon, non-CDD communities in Pasco County.

Isla Mirada fits the buyer who wants new construction with a 2-car garage and a lock-and-leave townhome structure, values the lagoon as a daily amenity and will actually use it, and accepts a layered fee stack (townhome HOA, master HOA, CDD, lagoon membership) as the price of that lifestyle. It does not fit the buyer hunting the cheapest way into Mirada (the Ryan Homes townhomes and several single-family sections start lower), the buyer who wants a yard or single-family privacy, or the buyer who assumed the lagoon was free with the HOA. Anyone considering it should stack every fee in writing, verify the CDD on the Pasco County tax roll, confirm school zoning by address, and confirm which homesites actually back the lagoon before paying a premium for the position.
