Parkland Royale in Parkland: The New Construction Guide (Floor Plans, Pricing, What to Know)
If you’re researching Parkland Royale, Parkland’s new construction community from Lennar, you’re probably trying to answer a few things at once: what’s actually being built, what it costs, whether the location makes sense for your life, and whether you should walk into that sales center with your eyes open or your guard up. This guide answers all four. No hype, just the numbers and the tradeoffs.
Parkland Royale is a guard-gated, master-planned single-family community built by Lennar on roughly 76.85 acres near the intersection of Loxahatchee Road and Bishop Road in Parkland, Florida, 33076. The sales center and model homes sit at 9520 Majestic Way. When fully built out, the community will have 205 luxury single-family homesites. That’s the ceiling. There’s no phase three tacked on later to squeeze in another 300 homes, which matters if you care about the community staying the size it was sold to you as.
Lennar isn’t experimenting here. They’re one of the largest homebuilders in the country, and Parkland Royale is one of their flagship luxury products in Broward County right now. This isn’t a starter community, and it isn’t trying to be one.
Parkland Royale in Parkland: New Construction by the Numbers
Before you get emotionally attached to a floor plan, get the numbers straight:
- Acreage: approximately 76.85 acres
- Total homesites at build-out: 205, no more
- Location: near Loxahatchee Road and Bishop Road, Parkland, FL 33076
- Sales center / models: 9520 Majestic Way
- Builder: Lennar
- Starting price: $1.16 million and up (Crown Collection)
- Gate status: guard-gated
- Build status: actively selling and building through its second phase, with early sections already delivered and occupied
For context, single-family homes across all of Broward County right now have a median price around $615,000, with about 4.6 months of supply, which puts the broader county in balanced territory leaning toward sellers. Parkland Royale starting at $1.16 million is nearly double that county median. That’s not a knock on the community, it’s context you need before you fall in love with a model home. You’re not buying an average Broward home here. You’re buying into one of the newest, most controlled-supply luxury pockets in northwest Broward, and the math needs to make sense to you before you’re under contract, not after.
If you want the fuller breakdown with pricing history and who this community actually fits, our Parkland Royale by Lennar Review (2026) goes deeper on the numbers than we can cover in a single guide. You can also see current availability directly on the Parkland Royale community page.
The Two Collections: Crown vs. Monarch
Here’s what most people miss walking into the sales center: Parkland Royale isn’t one product. It’s two, and they’re built for two different buyers. Confusing them is how people end up under contract on a home that doesn’t actually fit their household.
The Crown Collection
The Crown Collection sits on 50-foot homesites and is the entry tier into Parkland Royale, starting from $1.16 million and up. This tier is built for families who want real space and a solid structure without going into the largest multigenerational footprints. Think growing families who need bedrooms and storage, not a compound.
The Monarch Collection
The Monarch Collection steps up from there in homesite width and layout complexity. This is where Lennar builds toward larger, multigenerational households, the buyers who need a private suite for aging parents, a bonus space for adult kids, or simply more separation between living zones. Because these homesites are on a wider footprint and released in smaller numbers as the community builds out, pricing and availability move faster here than in the Crown Collection. Confirm current Monarch pricing directly with the sales team when you visit, since it shifts as sections release.
The mistake buyers make is assuming “luxury new construction community” means one consistent price point and one consistent buyer profile. It doesn’t. Know which collection you’re actually shopping before you start comparing monthly payments, because a Crown floor plan and a Monarch floor plan are not solving the same problem.
Floor Plans: What You’re Actually Choosing Between
Parkland Royale offers eight floor plans across the two collections. We’ll walk through the Crown Collection’s anchor plan in detail since it illustrates exactly what the entry tier delivers, then explain how to evaluate the rest when you’re on-site.
Crown Collection: The Barony
The Barony is built on the 50-foot homesites and runs 3,283 square feet, with 5 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, and a 3-car garage split into dual bays. That dual-bay setup means you can pull in from two different points depending on how your driveway is laid out, which matters more than it sounds like once you’re actually parking two or three vehicles daily plus guests. At $1.16 million and up, this is the entry point into the community, and it’s a legitimate five-bedroom family home, not a stripped-down “starter” version of something bigger down the line.
What to check on every other plan
When you’re at the sales center working through the remaining seven plans, don’t just ask square footage and bedroom count. Ask these:
- Garage configuration. The Barony’s split dual-bay setup is a real feature, not every plan will have it. If you own more than two vehicles or entertain often, this changes daily life.
- Which collection it belongs to. A plan in the Monarch Collection is solving a different problem (multigenerational living, larger separation between wings) than a Crown plan. Don’t compare them on price per square foot alone.
- Homesite width and orientation. 50-foot homesites in the Crown Collection mean specific side-yard and privacy realities. Ask to see an actual plot plan, not just the rendering.
- What’s included versus what’s a structural option. Lennar’s included features list changes by community and by phase. Get it in writing for the specific plan and phase you’re considering, not what a rep tells you verbally.
- Delivery timeline for your specific homesite. Early sections are delivered and occupied already, but you need to know exactly where your homesite falls in the build sequence before you assume a move-in date.
If you want a side-by-side on how Parkland Royale’s floor plan lineup and pricing stack up against Lennar’s actual delivered spec list, the Parkland Royale by Lennar Review (2026) is the resource to read before your sales center visit, not after.
Location Tradeoffs: Why Parkland, Why This Corner of It
Parkland sits in the northwest corner of Broward County, and it’s built a reputation over the last two decades as one of the most sought-after school zones in the entire county. Families move here specifically for that reason. Not for nightlife, not for walkability, for the schools and for space. If that’s not your priority, Parkland Royale’s price tag won’t make sense to you, and that’s fine, it just means you should be looking elsewhere.
Loxahatchee Road and Bishop Road put Parkland Royale in the northwest section of a town that’s already the northwest section of Broward. That means:
- Commute reality. You’re trading proximity to I-95 and the Fort Lauderdale core for space, privacy, and school zone. If your job requires a daily commute south or east, map your actual drive time before you buy, don’t assume “Broward County” means a short commute the way it might in Plantation or Davie.
- Corridor access. Parkland’s northwest pocket is fed primarily by Loxahatchee Road, Coral Ridge Drive, and connections toward the Sawgrass Expressway. That’s workable, but it’s not the same grid density you’d find closer to Coral Springs or Coconut Creek.
- What’s actually nearby day to day. Northwest Parkland is quieter and more residential than the areas closer to Parkland’s older established neighborhoods. If you want walkable retail and restaurants outside the gate, that’s a short drive, not a walk.
For a full picture of what living in this part of Broward actually looks like, from school zoning to day-to-day cost of living, read Living in Parkland, Florida (2026): Schools, Cost of Living, and Is It Worth It? It answers the “is it worth it” question more directly than any builder rep will.
If you’re comparing Parkland Royale against other new construction in the same market, it’s worth cross-shopping Saltgrass at Heron Bay, which sits in a more established part of Parkland with a different price entry point, or Cascata at MiraLago if lakefront and resort-style amenities matter more to you than the guard-gated, controlled-supply angle Parkland Royale is selling. Our Saltgrass at Heron Bay Review (2026) breaks down how that community’s pricing and HOA structure compares directly.
HOA, CDD, and the Guard-Gated Reality
Guard-gated communities in Parkland come with real, recurring costs, and Parkland Royale is no exception. Here’s how to think about it, not the exact dollar figure a rep quotes you on day one, but the structure you should expect and verify.
HOA dues
A guard-gated, master-planned community like this carries an HOA that typically covers the manned gate, common area landscaping and maintenance, and any shared amenity space. Ask for the current HOA budget document, not just the monthly number, so you can see what’s actually funded and what might be a future special assessment risk as the community finishes build-out.
CDD (Community Development District)
New construction in Parkland and much of northwest Broward frequently carries a Community Development District, a separate taxing mechanism that funds infrastructure like roads, utilities, and drainage through a bond that’s repaid over time as part of your property tax bill. If Parkland Royale carries a CDD, it will show up as a separate line item on your tax bill, distinct from your HOA dues. Don’t let a builder rep blend these two numbers together when they walk you through “estimated monthly costs.” Ask for them broken out separately, in writing, before you sign anything.
Why this matters more here than in an older neighborhood
Because Parkland Royale is new and still building out, both HOA rates and any CDD assessment can shift as more homesites come online and get added to the tax base. What you’re quoted at reservation may not be exactly what you’re paying two years from now. Get the current numbers in writing, ask how they’re trending as the community builds out, and factor that into your monthly payment math from day one, not as a surprise later.
How to Approach Lennar the Smart Way
Here’s what most people don’t do walking into a builder sales center, and it costs them money: they let the rep set the pace of the conversation. You control the pace instead.
Before you visit
- Get pre-qualified independently first. Don’t rely solely on the builder’s preferred lender for your first number. Know your real budget before you’re standing in a model home that’s staged to make $1.3 million feel reasonable.
- Decide Crown vs. Monarch before you tour. Walk in knowing which collection fits your household so you’re not swayed by a model home that’s simply bigger, not better for your actual life.
- Bring your own list of questions on incentives. Builders adjust closing cost credits, design center allowances, and rate buydowns by month and by how many homesites are left in a given release. Ask directly what’s being offered right now and whether it’s negotiable.
During the visit
- Ask for the plot plan, not just the floor plan. The rendering doesn’t show you your actual lot orientation, sun exposure, or distance to the neighboring homesite.
- Ask what’s structural versus a design center upsell. Included features lists are real, but “included” can mean different things depending on which phase you’re buying into.
- Get the HOA and CDD numbers in writing, separately. Verbal estimates aren’t binding. A document is.
- Ask about delivery sequencing. If you need to be in by a specific date, get that in writing tied to your specific homesite, not a general community timeline.
After the visit
Don’t sign at the sales center on day one. Take the contract, take the included features list, and take the HOA/CDD documentation home. Compare it against what you learned researching New Construction in Parkland: What Is Available in 2026 so you know exactly how Parkland Royale stacks up against the other active communities in town before you commit.
Who This Community Is (and Isn’t) For
Parkland Royale makes sense if:
- You’re prioritizing school zone and space over commute convenience
- Your budget genuinely supports $1.16 million and up without stretching into a payment that limits your flexibility elsewhere
- You want new construction with a builder’s warranty rather than an older resale home that needs updating
- A guard-gated, controlled-supply community (capped at 205 homes, no future phase) matters to you long-term
It doesn’t make sense if:
- You need to be closer to I-95 or the coast for a daily commute
- Your budget is closer to Broward’s $615,000 county median and you’d be stretching significantly to reach entry pricing here
- You want walkable retail and dining directly outside your gate

It’s an honest look at what you’re actually paying for versus a resale home in the same school zone.
And if you’re thinking about this as more than a primary residence, whether resale value or rental potential factors into your decision, Parkland Investment Property: The Numbers and the Reality (2026) walks through what actually holds value in this market versus what’s marketing.
The Bottom Line
Parkland Royale is a real, well-built, guard-gated new construction community from a major national builder, capped at 205 homes, split across two genuinely different product tiers, starting at $1.16 million. That’s the reality. Whether it’s right for you comes down to whether the school zone and space are worth the commute tradeoff, and whether you walk into that sales center with your own numbers already in hand instead of relying on theirs.
If you want a second opinion on floor plan fit, HOA and CDD documentation, or how Parkland Royale compares against Saltgrass at Heron Bay, Cascata at MiraLago, or the rest of Parkland’s active new construction lineup, that’s exactly the kind of conversation worth having before you put down a reservation deposit, not after.
