CC Homes and Turnberry Plan 151-Home Luxury Community in Davie Starting at $1.6 Million

CC Homes and Turnberry are preparing to launch The Estates by Turnberry, a gated community with 151 single-family homes on the west side of Davie, across Interstate 75 from Weston. The developers plan to begin sales in October 2025 and break ground around the same time, targeting local buyers looking to upgrade from older homes in surrounding Broward County suburbs.

Luxury Homes on Large Lots With High-End Amenities

The base price range for homes in The Estates by Turnberry will be $1.6 million to $1.8 million, with additional costs for features like swimming pools or extra rooms. The single-family homes will be built on 25,000-square-foot lots and will range from 3,400 to 5,700 square feet, with some exceeding 6,000 square feet when rooms are added.

Jim Carr, CEO of CC Homes, told The Real Deal that most buyers are expected to be residents looking to upgrade from older homes in Weston, Pembroke Pines, and other nearby areas. Many of these homes are 20 to 25 years old and require renovation, making new construction an attractive alternative.

The community will include a clubhouse with a swimming pool, walking and horseback riding trails, and gazebos overlooking wetlands. The 151-acre development will feature more than 60 acres of open space and a sound barrier wall on a berm next to Interstate 75.

Demand for new single-family homes in suburban markets increased by 8% in 2024, driven by buyers seeking larger lots, modern amenities, and move-in-ready properties. The Estates by Turnberry aligns with these trends by offering spacious lots and high-end finishes in a centrally located community.

James Moore’s real estate advisory team works with developers managing large-scale residential projects, providing support with financial planning, tax strategy, and project accounting to ensure developments remain on budget and meet profitability goals.

Turnberry and CC Homes Partnership on Davie Development

The project is a co-development between Aventura-based Turnberry and CC Homes, with CC Homes leading the project on behalf of the partnership. Chairman and CEO Jackie Soffer leads Turnberry, while CC Homes is led by Carr and Armando Codina, founder and executive chairman of Codina Partners.

Aly-khan Merali, president and CFO of Turnberry, confirmed the partnership structure. Turnberry acquired the vacant 151-acre site in 2007 for $11 million, according to property records. Southwest 20th Street bounds the site to the north, Southwest 28th Street to the south, Southwest 154th Street to the east, and Interstate 75 to the west.

The Davie Town Council unanimously approved rezoning the site from agricultural to estate dwelling with an open space overlay designation in May 2025. The council also designated the site as a community development district, or CDD.

Why Community Development Districts Matter for Developers

Carr explained that community development districts offer advantages over traditional homeowners associations. CDDs operate as sub-governmental agencies, which means assessments for community maintenance are collected with real estate taxes. This structure provides more transparency and reduces the risk of financial mismanagement that can occur with HOAs.

For developers, CDDs streamline governance and reduce disputes over maintenance fees and community oversight. For buyers, CDDs provide a clear framework for how the community will be managed and how costs will be distributed.

James Moore provides tax planning and consulting services to help real estate developers assess the financial and tax implications of different governance structures, including CDDs, HOAs, and other management models.

Davie’s Appeal for Residential Development

Carr cited Davie’s central location and supportive growth policies as key factors in the decision to develop there. He noted that the town promotes quality development and is responsive to developers’ needs. CC Homes has a long history in Davie, having completed several single-family and multifamily projects over the years.

Carr’s first development in the area dates back to the 1980s with a community called Shenandoah. He also confirmed that CC Homes and Codina are working on another single-family development in Davie, currently under contract and in due diligence.

Davie’s location between major employment centers, schools, and transportation corridors makes it attractive for families and professionals. The town has also seen limited new construction in recent years, creating pent-up demand for modern housing options.

What This Project Means for South Florida’s Luxury Housing Market

The Estates by Turnberry represents a significant addition to South Florida’s luxury housing inventory. With base prices starting at $1.6 million and lots exceeding 25,000 square feet, the development targets move-up buyers with significant purchasing power.

For developers and investors, the project reflects confidence in the continued demand for high-end single-family homes in suburban markets. Rising construction costs, land scarcity, and financing challenges have made large-scale residential development more complex, but projects with strong location fundamentals and experienced partners continue to move forward.

As the project progresses through sales and construction, it will provide data on buyer preferences, pricing trends, and absorption rates in the Davie market. These insights will be valuable for other developers evaluating similar opportunities in Broward County.
