For those who love South Florida, the community of Miami Lakes stands out as an exceptional choice. Its prime location offers residents a picture-perfect setting with convenient access—just 30 minutes to Fort Lauderdale, Miami, and everything in between. While many newcomers to the area face the challenge of renovating older homes, that’s no longer the case.
GT Homes’ Palma del Lago community is a unique lakefront enclave in the heart of Miami Lakes. In 2023, the innovative development team, with deep roots in Canada, acquired this rare lakeside property. The community features just 37 exclusive lakefront estates, and the final phase has now been released, along with exciting new floorplans. These fresh designs are the result of collaboration with homebuyers who were seeking a modern alternative.
Each of the spacious floorplans offers a choice exterior elevation that ranges from contemporary modern to Coral Gables-inspired architecture — a rare find. Even more uncommon is the chance to secure a new construction estate in this sought-after enclave. GT USA experienced the high demand firsthand when the first phase of residences at Palma del Lago sold out in less than a year. The community has generated significant buzz for its Genius® technology package and interior personalization through its private design studio.
Lakefront Estates with Flexible Design
The estate-sized residences at Palma del Lago are designed to suit the individual needs of its residents. This final release adds three new floorplans, offering eight total layouts to select from. These floorplans feature 3 to 5 bedrooms and between 2,400 to 8,000 square feet. With expansive living areas, optional casitas, and in-law suites, each property offers flexibility to owners. Bonus rooms can easily be converted into an extra bedroom for guests, a playroom, or a dedicated home office to complement every lifestyle. What sets these estates apart, however, are their unobstructed views of the surrounding lake. Spacious backyards provide the ideal space for outdoor entertaining, grill nights, or peaceful moments by the water.
Personalized New Construction Residences
Palma del Lago’s new construction estates also provide the ability for personalization with a wide selection of finishes and features. At GT USA’s Design Studio in Fort Lauderdale, homeowners can choose everything from countertop and cabinet colors to plumbing fixtures to make their estate truly their own. Beyond the aesthetics, every residence will be equipped with GT’s GENIUS program. Whole-home Wi-Fi, enhanced security systems, eco-friendly solutions, and other features that are typically considered upgrades come standard with each lakefront estate.
The Best of South Florida Living in Miami Lakes
Miami Lakes offers a lifestyle that blends small-town charm with big-city convenience. As an ideal hub for professionals with families, the region provides easy access to top-rated medical services and a variety of public and private educational institutions. Entertainment is just 30 minutes away, from the trendy shores of Miami and Hollywood beaches to shopping sprees at Sawgrass Mills, Dolphin Mall, Aventura Mall, and Bal Harbour Shops.

Few Lakefront Estates Remain Available
With site preparations underway and a limited number of estates remaining, Palma del Lago is expected to sell out fast. Once these residences are gone, this rare opportunity for new construction in one of the nation’s most sought-after markets will be gone as well. Estates within this final release are priced from $1.5 million.
