GL Homes is creating an 850-home single-family development on Immokalee Road south of TwinEagles, a residential golf community in North Naples.

The 563-acre development in Collier County is proposed to stretch south from Immokalee Road to the Cypress Canal. Its entrance on the south side of Immokalee Road will line up with TwinEagles' entrance on the north side of the road. The southwestern edge of the property abuts the Olde Florida Golf Club course, which begins at the current end of the Vanderbilt Beach Road extension.

Although the new development has been approved as TwinEagles South, the proposed gated community has yet to be named and is not part of TwinEagles or aligned with that subdivision. So, for now, we will call it TwinEagles South in North Naples.

It’s a stand-alone community. As of October 2, 2018, The community’s name, pricing and construction timeline have not been decided yet.

The first phase will have about 300 single-family home sites on cul-de-sacs around 11 small lakes and an amenity center. After the buildout of future phases, the residential community is expected to have 853 units. The conceptual layout for homesites in additional phases has not been finalized.

All of the streets are proposed to be named for native flowers or flowering plants and trees, such as Azalea Way, Dahlia Court, Jacaranda Drive and Peony Terrace in the North Naples Florida community.

The property includes designated preservation areas and archaeological sites. A 300-foot-wide wildlife corridor along its western edge lines up with a concrete culvert that serves as a wildlife crossing. The 20-foot span was built in 2004 beneath Immokalee Road 3 miles east of Collier Boulevard, allowing wildlife to cross from the property on the western border of TwinEagles to the TwinEagles South property across the street.

As more information becomes known we will immediately provide information, but for now, we will continue to call this community TwinEagles South in North Naples.
