Woodleaf Hammock

Preserve-surrounded living at a mid-range LWR price.

Woodleaf Hammock is a smaller, gated D.R. Horton community backed by natural preserve areas, hence the name. It feels quieter than the large resort communities, with a more neighborhood-scale feel. It's a solid value option inside the LWR master plan with a clubhouse, resort pool, and sports courts. A great fit for buyers who want the LWR address and school district without paying for a golf or country club membership.
