New Townhomes near Lake Monroe Planned by Henin Group, Moving Forward Now with National Homebuilder M/I Homes

Mar 16, 2021

SANFORD – Henin Springview LLC, a subsidiary of The Henin Group which focuses on unique luxury neighborhoods and multifamily developments, has sold its planned Sanford townhome development to a national homebuilder.


The 18-acre parcel was approved last year for 150 townhomes on the site at 2300 W. First Street in Sanford.


Orlando Division of M/I Homes closed last week in January on the shovel-ready property located along the shores of Lake Monroe.


The area is highly desirable with a hospital, historic downtown Sanford, a lakefront park and trails, employment corridors, and a mall nearby, said Jerome Henin, CEO of the Henin Group.


“We were delayed on the approvals and permitting during 2020 with the Covid-19 shutdown and the governmental agencies working from home,” Henin said.


Plans for the townhomes were approved and permitted after being rezoned from industrial to residential.


Construction is getting underway soon, according to Henin.


“This development is a good fit for M/I Homes as they are currently building The Towns at White Cedar just a few minutes west on White Cedar Road off SR 46.”


M/I Homes’ Towns at Lake Monroe Commons, a name in the process of being approved, will provide reasonably priced starter homes for Seminole County residents.


They most likely will be priced starting in the mid $200,000s and include the homebuilder’s 15-year structural warranty.


The three- and four-bedroom units are anticipated to start at 1,800 square feet.


M/I Homes also builds in the Henin Group’s award-winning Riviera Bella in DeBary where production homes are priced from the mid $200,000s and custom homes up to $2 million.
