City of Westlake, FL – (December 2, 2025) — Minto Communities USA, the master developer and lead builder at Westlake, announces its newest residential neighborhood, The Oaks, opening on December 6. With 266 single-family homesites planned for the first phase of construction, The Oaks is debuting two new architectural styles offering buyers innovative designs and premium finishes. Home prices start in the mid $400s.
“With our existing single-family neighborhoods nearly complete, we felt the time was right to introduce something new that offers innovative designs with attainable pricing,” said Steve Svopa, Division President, Operations, Minto Communities USA. “The Oaks marks another exciting step forward in the evolution of Westlake, which we believe offers the best value in all of Palm Beach County.”
Located off River Bend Drive, The Oaks will feature floor plans from Minto’s popular Cypress and Indigo Collections. Buyers will have the opportunity to choose from five elevations, including the two new designs, Contemporary and Modern Farmhouse.
The Cypress Collection, built on 50-foot lots, has 18 unique floor plans ranging from 1,644 to 4,008 square feet under air. The Indigo Collection, designed for 65-foot lots, offers 11 floor plans that range from 2,410 to 4,314 square feet under air.
As with all Minto homes in Westlake, residents of The Oaks will have access to the community’s world-class amenities at the $22 million Westlake Adventure Park, which features a resort-style lagoon pool with tower slide, splash pad, adult lap pool, event lawn, concert pavilion, food truck court, BMX pump park, playground, dog park, full-length lighted basketball courts, and a community room called The Lodge.
Located in the heart of Central Palm Beach County, Westlake continues to attract buyers seeking new-construction homes in a vibrant, family-friendly setting. Minto has the capacity to build over 6,000 homes and is approved for than 2 million square feet of commercial development.
Westlake’s growth extends beyond new homes, with a wave of new retail and dining options transforming the area. Recent openings include a Tractor Supply Co., Starbucks, Planet Fitness, and a private racquet club with 10 indoor padel courts. A new Publix opened two years ago, and a Lowe’s store/regional headquarters is currently in the planning phases. Additional service-oriented retail and eateries are scheduled to open in the new year.
“As more and more people and businesses have moved into Westlake, you can now see and feel the energy of the community,” said Svopa.
