BH Group and Lennar Begin Closings at Greenview at Presidential Estates, Transforming a Former Golf Course Near Aventura

Key Points

• First buyer closings have begun at Greenview at Presidential Estates in Aventura, with 57 of 103 homes currently under construction.

• Homes range from 3,500 to 5,000 sq ft, each with a private pool and spa; prices start at $2.5 million and top out around $3.5 million.

• The community sits on a 104‑acre former golf course and is the first new single‑family development in the city in over 25 years — marking a significant addition to Aventura’s luxury‑home inventory.

The developers behind Greenview at Presidential Estates — BH Group and Lennar Homes — have officially begun handing over keys to buyers, delivering on a long‑ awaited vision for upscale single‑family living in Aventura. This milestone isn’t just about new homes moving in — it’s about reshaping the luxury housing landscape in a market starved for spacious, modern residences.

Why Greenview Matters

A rare supply infusion in a tight market

• Greenview sits on a massive 104‑acre tract — the former golf course turned into the city’s first large‑scale, gated single‑family community in over two decades. That addresses a glaring shortage of new single‑family inventory in Aventura.

• Each of the 103 homes is designed for high-end living: 3,500–5,000 sq ft, private pool/spa, and resort‑style amenities, offering an appealing alternative to older, dated stock.

Upgrades, lifestyle, and location all in one

• Residents will enjoy walking and biking trails, a clubhouse, resort-style pool, fitness center, tot lot, guardhouse, and more — lifestyle features rare for newly built homes in Aventura.

• The location is a big win: minutes from Aventura Mall, major parks, transit via Brightline, and other amenities. That kind of convenience remains scarce in single‑family style neighborhoods nearby.

What’s Driving the Demand

Luxury‑home demand remains strong across South Florida

• Recent reports show South Florida’s high-end real estate market climbing, even amid broader economic uncertainty. For example, in Q2 2025, single‑family homes and gated communities remained scarce — fueling demand for projects like Greenview. 

• November‑2025 data showed a 14% year‑over‑year increase in total residential sales volume across the tri‑county region, with cash buyers and luxury transactions dominating much of that growth. 

Aventura is becoming a magnet for new capital

• Industry commentary notes that Aventura’s luxury real estate market is booming in 2025, driven by a mix of domestic and international buyers, constrained supply, and high demand for lifestyle‑oriented homes. 

• Single‑family homes with privacy, size, and modern amenities are increasingly rare in this market — giving Greenview an edge over older comparable properties.

From Golf Course to Gated Community — What That Transition Means

Smart densification without sacrificing exclusivity

• Repurposing a large, under‑utilized golf course into a gated single‑family community delivers scale and exclusivity — something rare in South Florida, especially near Aventura/Miami.

• This transformation reflects a broader regional trend: converting open land into modern housing to meet demand from inbound domestic and global wealth. 

Modern builds out‑competing legacy homes

• New construction — especially with luxury features, modern layouts, and resort‑style amenities — is increasingly preferred over older homes that often can’t compete on design or infrastructure. 

• For investors and landlords, that trend warns that older single‑family homes (without updates) may struggle to hold value or attract premium buyers/tenants as more modern alternatives emerge.

What This Means for Investors & Landlords

• Potential for appreciation: With demand high and supply still tight, Greenview homes could see healthy value growth, especially given Aventura’s rising luxury profile.

• Rent‑up potential: For investors who buy but don’t occupy, these homes could attract high‑income renters seeking spacious, amenity‑rich living — but scarcity may keep absorption slow.

• Older competition gets riskier: Owners of legacy single‑family homes in Aventura or nearby areas should evaluate whether upgrades are needed to remain competitive.

A New Moment for Aventura

The handover of Greenview at Presidential Estates signals more than the start of a new community — it reflects a pivotal moment for Aventura and South Florida’s luxury single‑family market. With modern space, high‑end amenities, and a location few developments can match, Greenview is poised to set a new standard for investor appeal and homeowner demand
