Town of Big Cypress
Homes for Sale in Naples, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of this snapshot, the Town of Big Cypress is transitioning from entitlement to construction: Lennar broke ground in Rivergrass in early 2026, and Mattamy and Taylor Morrison are building in Bellmar and Esplanade at Rivergrass respectively. There is no townwide resale history to read yet.
For a buyer, the town is the umbrella; the homes are bought inside the villages. The value now is understanding how the villages differ in product and price, and getting on interest lists early while the town is still in its first construction phases.

The Town of Big Cypress buying strategy.
If we were buying in Town of Big Cypress today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Town of Big Cypress.
A Town Built From Villages
The Town of Big Cypress is not a single subdivision but a master-planned town assembled from three RLSA villages - Rivergrass, Longwater and Bellmar - that together are planned for roughly 8,350 homes and about 11,000 residents. Collier Enterprises is the developer, and the town is designed so that a commercial core of more than 1.6 million square feet of shops and offices serves the villages, reducing trips out to regional roads.
Builders enter through the villages. Lennar broke ground in Rivergrass in early 2026 as the first builder in the town; Mattamy Homes is building Bellmar's first phase; and Taylor Morrison is building the golf-anchored Esplanade at Rivergrass. That structure gives buyers a range of product - single-family, townhome, villa and condominium - and a range of price points depending on which village and builder they choose.
The town also carries a large conservation commitment: more than 12,000 environmentally sensitive acres are to remain in preservation in perpetuity. For a buyer, the practical items to confirm are village-specific: which neighborhoods are gated, the HOA budget, and any community-development-district assessment, all of which vary by village and should be confirmed in recorded documents before a deposit.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Town of Big Cypress. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
