The eastern region of Manatee County is the most promising in terms of real estate. Parrish is an Old Florida town that was able to escape the unbridled development of Bradenton and Lakewood Ranch, and this is where Neal Communities chose to build Forest Creek.
Located north of the Manatee River and about 12 miles from Downtown Bradenton, Forest Creek in Parrish is a gated community that is perfect for first-time home buyers and families.
Developer Neal Communities started building Forest Creek during a red-hot real estate market that unfortunately came tumbling down a couple of years later. Instead of pulling the plug on the project, Neal Communities adjusted to market conditions and continued developing the neighborhood. These days, Forest Creek is one of the prettiest neighborhoods in Parrish.
The handsome floor plans chosen by Neal Communities for Forest Creek are streamlined versions of the Mediterranean revival style. An entry-level model typically features two bedrooms and two full bathrooms built on two levels and 1,480 square feet of living space. The largest models are built on more than 2,300 square feet of interior and feature three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a three-car garage, and extras such as tray ceilings and custom shutters.
As of 2016, pricing in Forest Creek ranges between $185K and $328K. Neighbors enjoy many community amenities such as a swimming pool, exercise room, spa, gazebo, bird watching trails, green areas, and even an 18-acre lake.
