Neal Land & Neighborhoods expands North River Ranch offerings with Explore by Del Webb launch by PulteGroup
Neal Land & Neighborhoods has reached a new milestone in the progression of its flagship master-planned community, North River Ranch, with the debut of Explore by Del Webb at North River Ranch – a new gated community developed by PulteGroup.
Located in the northeast portion of North River Ranch, Neal Land & Neighborhoods closed on the 400 acres to PulteGroup in February 2025 for $38.7 million, marking the company’s largest land sale to date, and reflects a strategic partnership enhancing the builder relationship and the depth and diversity of North River Ranch.
The “Next Generation Living” concept, specifically created for Explore, introduces elevated single-family homes and a focus on multigenerational living with “All Gen” floor plans that integrate universal design for greater functionality. These floor plans feature private suites with their own kitchenettes and bathrooms, paired with connected indoor and outdoor living spaces that balance togetherness with independence. Homes will range from approximately 1,405 to over 3,900 square feet, with six model homes available for tours at opening.
Residents of the new, gated community will also benefit from its private, vibrant resort-style club living that balances activity with relaxation. Further, Explore residents benefit from the proximity to North River Ranch’s established commercial offerings, including Market Walk, which features a mix of dining, retail, health, and fitness destinations.
“From the start, we envisioned North River Ranch as a community that could serve a wide range of homebuyers,” said John A. Neal, president of Neal Land & Neighborhoods. ”Explore builds on that vision by introducing elevated home and lifestyle experiences that broaden the community’s appeal while complementing what’s already in place.”
Its arrival further reinforces North River Ranch’s appeal to national homebuilders, with PulteGroup’s decision to introduce the first Florida-based Explore brand signaling confidence in the location and the strength of the community’s established infrastructure, amenities, schools, retail, and healthcare network.
“This is a strong example of how thoughtful, intentional land planning translates into lasting value for our builders and ultimately, home buyers,” adds Neal.
