Myrtlebrook Preserve is a new single-family home community by Highland Homes of Florida in North Lakeland, located off Myrtle Road south of Duff Road in ZIP 33810 (Highland Homes community materials, 2026). The neighborhood is laid out with open space, ponds, and trails for a park-like setting, and homes are marketed in the roughly 1,300 square foot range and up.
Builder and listing guides describe floor plans with three to six bedrooms, open-concept layouts, flexible-use rooms, and a covered lanai or porch, with square footage cited from about 1,358 up to roughly 3,162 square feet across the plan lineup (Highland Homes and new-home listing portals, 2026). Confirm the exact plan, square footage, bedroom count, and included features for any specific home.
Because this is a new-construction community, the money is made or lost on the contract and the lot, not on a resale average. The drivers are the builder base price and incentives, the lot premium and orientation, the HOA dues, and whether a Community Development District (CDD) assessment applies, all of which have to be confirmed in writing with the builder for the exact home and lot.
The pitch is a commuter-friendly North Lakeland address: roughly 1.2 miles to US-98 North, about 4 miles to Interstate 4, and around 7 miles to downtown Lakeland, with Tampa and Orlando employment within a drive (Highland Homes area information, 2026). The work is the diligence: read the contract, walk the lot, and confirm the HOA, any CDD, and the full carrying cost before you sign.
