From Jason

My Take on Verde

I think Verde’s biggest strength is the Estate Collection. Before Astoria, Bloomfield and Everly were added, buyers who wanted a single-story home with a three-car garage had to look outside Verde’s Pulte lineup to find that combination. That gap doesn’t exist anymore, and it’s one of the first things I bring up when someone tells me they want a big garage without going to two stories.

On amenities, Verde has its own private pool and covered cabana, which is a nice middle ground — more than a townhome-only neighborhood, but not the resort-style campus you’d get at a community like TerraWalk or Tucker’s Cove. I’d treat it as a genuine amenity, just not the main reason to buy here.

One factual note worth knowing: Verde homes are built with shingle roofs, not tile. If roof material factors into your insurance comparison or your preference between communities, that’s a real difference from a community like TerraWalk, which uses slate tile.

I’d also tell buyers not to rely on an older Verde plan sheet. The lineup has grown from the original nine designs to twelve, and at least one plan has been renamed — the current Crestmere was previously shown as a Cresswind in older material at roughly the same size. Compare against Pulte’s current published lineup, not an old brochure.

How I’d approach this search: if you want a three-car garage without going up to a second story, look hard at the Estate Collection. And confirm the roof material and current plan names against Pulte’s live lineup before you compare Verde to another Midtown builder.
Current New Construction

Is New Construction Still Available at Verde?

Active Builder Sales

Verde currently offers a mix of build-to-order and quick move-in opportunities depending on the plan, release and construction stage. The current product lineup is broader than it was during the community’s earlier phases.

The biggest change is the addition of Pulte’s Estate Collection, giving Verde three current product lines instead of the two-series structure shown on the older version of this page.

Considering a new Pulte home in Verde?
Pulte’s sales team represents Pulte. My role is to represent you — helping you compare floor plans, homesites, quick move-ins, future construction, incentives, included features, HOA and BRCISD costs, contract terms, inspections and alternatives throughout Babcock Ranch.
In many new-construction transactions, the builder pays the buyer’s agent commission. Builder policies can vary, so it is best to contact me before your first model-home visit or builder registration.

Important Product Update

Verde Is Now a Three-Collection Community

Older Verde material often describes nine floor plans divided between the Garden and Classic series. That is no longer the complete lineup.

Pulte now lists 12 designs across Garden, Classic and Estate collections. The newer Estate offering adds Astoria, Bloomfield and Everly, all three-car-garage, single-story designs.

There is also a name change worth knowing if you have been comparing older material: the current Classic lineup lists the Crestmere at 1,662 square feet. Older Verde references may show a Cresswind at the same approximate size, so I would use Pulte’s current plan name when comparing available homes.

How Many Floor Plans Does Verde Currently Offer?

Pulte currently publishes 12 home designs at Verde. Availability can change by release, homesite and construction stage, so treat this as a reference to the current design menu rather than a guarantee that every plan is available to build today.

Garden Collection

Candlewood 2 bed / 2 bath • 1,433 sq ft • 1 story • 2-car garage
Daylen 4 bed / 2 bath • 1,580 sq ft • 1 story • 2-car garage
Mill Run 4 bed / 3 bath • 2,203 sq ft • 2 story • 2-car garage
Talon 5 bed / 3 bath • 2,615 sq ft • 2 story • 2-car garage

Classic Collection

Crestmere 3 bed / 2 bath • 1,662 sq ft • 1 story • 2-car garage
Heston 4 bed / 2 bath • 1,850 sq ft • 1 story • 2-car garage
Medina 3 bed / 3 bath • 2,230 sq ft • 1 story • 2-car garage
Winthrop 4 bed / 3.5 bath • 2,894 sq ft • 2 story • 2-car garage
Yellowstone 5 bed / 4.5 bath • 3,416 sq ft • 2 story • 2-car garage

Estate Collection

Astoria 3–4 bed / 2–3 bath • 2,223 sq ft • 1 story • 3-car garage
Bloomfield 4 bed / 3 bath • 2,503 sq ft • 1 story • 3-car garage
Everly 3–4 bed / 3 bath • 2,703 sq ft • 1 story • 3-car garage
The Estate Collection changes the way I would compare Verde. Buyers who want a single-story home with a three-car garage no longer have to leave Verde’s Pulte lineup to find that combination. Astoria, Bloomfield and Everly create a product tier that did not exist in the original nine-plan version of the community.
Build-to-Order vs. Quick Move-In

Can Buyers Personalize a Pulte Home at Verde?

I would not describe every Verde home as simply having a fixed pre-selected package. Pulte currently markets personalization within its home-building process, but the amount of choice depends heavily on the specific home and its stage of construction.

A build-to-order opportunity can allow more decisions before construction reaches certain milestones. A quick move-in home may already have most structural choices, cabinetry, counters, flooring and other selections completed.

Build-to-Order Potentially more opportunity to select options, depending on the plan, release and construction deadlines.
Quick Move-In Faster path to occupancy, but many selections may already be complete.
Structural Options Confirm available plan-specific changes before contracting; not every option remains available at every construction stage.
Finished Price Compare the actual home price after lot, structural options and incentives rather than comparing advertised base prices alone.
Private Neighborhood Amenities

What Private Amenities Does Verde Have?

Verde has its own private community pool and covered cabana in addition to the broader amenities available throughout Babcock Ranch.

That makes Verde different from a community where the home purchase relies entirely on town-wide amenities. Residents can use the private neighborhood pool while still having access to Babcock Ranch parks, recreation and gathering spaces elsewhere in town.

Private Pool Neighborhood pool reserved for Verde residents.
Covered Cabana Shaded poolside gathering space within Verde’s private amenity area.
Gated Entry Verde is one of Babcock Ranch’s gated neighborhood options.
Babcock Ranch Amenities Verde residents also have access to applicable town-wide parks, trails and resident amenities.
Midtown Location

Where Is Verde Located Within Babcock Ranch?

Verde sits in Midtown, the portion of Babcock Ranch organized around newer neighborhoods and the expanding PKWY park and preserve corridor. Pulte’s current Verde sales center is located at 44252 Kelly Drive, Babcock Ranch, FL 33982.

The Midtown location makes Verde worth comparing with other current new-construction communities including The Sanctuary, Sabal Glen and Palmetto Landing. The meaningful differences are not just builder and price; gating, private amenities, floor-plan choices, homesite feel and the amount of personalization can all be different.

For a broader explanation of how the different areas of town fit together, see my Living in Babcock Ranch guide.

Official 2026 District Schedule

What Are the 2026 BRCISD Assessments for Verde?

Babcock Ranch uses the Babcock Ranch Community Independent Special District, or BRCISD. The published 2026 Verde schedule includes an operations-and-maintenance assessment plus debt service, with the total varying by official lot-width category.

$2,053.06 40' Single-Family
2026 Total
$2,404.10 50' Single-Family
2026 Total
$2,755.14 60' Single-Family
2026 Total

Do not determine the assessment from the floor-plan name alone. The correct amount depends on the official homesite category for the specific property.

These BRCISD figures are separate from Verde’s HOA charges, property taxes, insurance and other ownership expenses. For broader comparisons, see the Babcock Ranch HOA and ISD fee guide.

Buyer Checklist

What I Would Compare Before Buying at Verde

Garden, Classic or Estate? Start with home size, garage needs and one-story versus two-story preferences before comparing individual plans.
Two-Car vs. Three-Car The Estate designs add three-car garages, which can materially change the usefulness of the home for vehicles, storage or a golf cart.
Build-to-Order vs. Quick Move-In Compare personalization opportunities against completion timing, incentives and the actual finished price.
Homesite Orientation, neighboring homes, open-space relationship and street position can change how the same floor plan feels.
Roof Material Verde homes use shingle roofs, not tile. Compare that against a community like TerraWalk, which uses slate tile, if that factors into your insurance or preference.
Actual Included Features Verify flooring, appliances, cabinetry, counters, lanai features and other specifications on the exact home.
BRCISD Category Confirm whether the property falls into Verde’s 40', 50' or 60' district-assessment category.
Builder Incentives Incentives can change the effective price significantly, especially when comparing a quick move-in home with resale or another builder.
Other Midtown Communities Compare Verde’s gating, private pool, Pulte product and Estate options against nearby new-construction alternatives.
You can also compare Babcock Ranch new construction, single-family homes, all communities and all current Babcock Ranch inventory.
