The Woodlands: What We Know So Far.

Overview: What Is Announced

The Woodlands is a planned gated community of 335 single-family homes on the site of the closed Woodlands Country Club at 4600 Woodlands Boulevard in Tamarac, at the southwest corner of Commercial Boulevard and Rock Island Road. 13th Floor Homes closed on the roughly 270-acre property from ClubLink for 14 million dollars in July 2024, after the Tamarac city commission voted 3-2 in March 2024 to approve the plan. At announcement the builder priced homes from the 700,000s to over 1 million dollars, three to five bedrooms, and estimated construction starting in late 2024 with first homes complete in late 2025.

By May 2025 the project was still awaiting final permits. Tamarac Mayor Michelle Gomez told a resident meeting of about 100 people that construction was expected to begin within 30 to 90 days, that starting prices would run from 800,000 dollars to 1 million, and that the plan includes a clubhouse, pool, paddleball courts, six miles of trails, new turning lanes, and about 190 acres of green space. The homes would form a ninth section of the existing Woodlands community.

In August 2026 the owner, Woodlands Club Holdings, sought a Brownfield (Green Reuse) designation for four parcels at 4600 Woodlands Boulevard. The former golf course has documented arsenic contamination and is under environmental assessment and remediation with Broward County oversight. A community meeting was set for August 18, 2026, with city commission hearings on September 9 and September 23, 2026. Counsel for the owner said the designation would not change the approved development plan. The old clubhouse has been demolished.

Quick Facts (All Sourced)

This community is not selling yet. Every figure here is attributed and dated, and the announced price range is the developer's 2024 and 2025 guidance, not a current price sheet. Nothing on this page is a render or an amenity we invented. Confirm everything against the developer's release documents when sales open, and bring your own representation from the first visit.

Location & Context

The property is the two former 18-hole golf courses of the Woodlands Country Club, which closed in 2020, in the middle of the existing eight-section Woodlands community in Tamarac. The new homes would become the ninth section, with new entryways, infrastructure, and turning lanes.

The practical read: this is a golf-course infill inside an established 1970s community, not a greenfield master plan. Central Broward has almost no new single-family supply, so a 335-lot release here will be one of the largest new detached-home offerings in the county for years. The trade is that you buy into a long-contested site with an environmental remediation program running alongside construction.

Opponents raised traffic, arsenic in the former golf-course soil, and loss of green space; supporters called the project a boon. 13th Floor points to its other Tamarac communities, the 214-home Hidden Trails, 239-home Manor Parc, and 253-home Central Parc.

What Is Planned

335 single-family homes with three to five bedrooms and customizable floorplan layouts, a midcentury modern design aesthetic, more than 160 acres of permanently preserved open space and lakes, a five-mile recreation trail, controlled-access gates, and a new clubhouse with fitness center, cafe, resort-style pool and spa, padel and tennis courts, plus stormwater and infrastructure improvements.

The May 2025 city summary added about 190 acres of green space, six miles of trails, new turning lanes, and new entryways.

Taxes & Costs Context

The Woodlands is in the City of Tamarac in Broward County, so property taxes will follow the Broward county-wide millage plus the Tamarac municipal levy and any assessments the new section carries.

Expect a gated, full-amenity HOA covering the clubhouse, pool, trails, and gates; no fee figure has been published on the pages cited here. For context, the Broward County figure in our FY2025-26 millage file is a typical total of about 19.84 mills, and actual parcel totals vary by municipality and taxing district, so treat it as a planning number, not a quote.

Published price guidance so far: from the 700,000s to over 1 million dollars per the developer in July 2024, and from 800,000 dollars to 1 million per the mayor in May 2025. Treat both as directional until a release price sheet exists.

Ask two questions before you reserve: what the Brownfield designation and the county remediation program mean for disclosure and lender requirements on your specific lot, and whether the new section joins the existing Woodlands homeowner association or forms its own. Both change the monthly number.

Schools

NewHomeSource lists the community in Broward County Public Schools with Pinewood Elementary School and Silver Lakes Middle School as of September 8, 2026; no high school is listed on that page. School assignment is set by the district and can change; confirm the current boundary with Broward County Public Schools before you buy.
