Verandah, a 1,456-acre master-planned community along a 1.75-mile stretch of the Orange River in Fort Myers, was developed by The Bonita Bay Group with the same commitment to meticulous planning, environmental stewardship, integrity and attention to detail that is evident in all of its award-winning communities. Nearly 70 percent of Verandah is dedicated open space, with 480 acres of common areas, golf course and parks, 416 acres of wetland preserve and lakes, 84 acres of upland preserves and a buffer along the river to maintain the unique character of the riverfront. The buffer is a conservation easement along the entire length of Verandah’s riverfront.

Green Community ~ Verandah has been developed using “green building” practices that demand fewer non-renewable resources and provide a healthier environment for residents. The Bonita Bay Group created Verandah as a green community — the first in the state to meet the requirements of the Florida Green Building Coalition to be third-party certified as a green community. Certification requires minimum thresholds in six categories: protection of ecosystems and conservation of natural resources; circulation of people and traffic within and outside of the community; use of green utilities practices; amenities; green-friendly community covenants and deed restriction; and education and promotion of green living practices.

In planning Verandah, The Bonita Bay Group reworked portions of its site development, restored historic flow ways, expanded wetland, uplands and conservation areas, and developed a perpetual conservation easement along the Orange River to ensure the future integrity of its unique ecosystem. The developer also restored and enhanced natural habitat to ensure the community continues to be a home to some of southwest Florida’s most diverse wildlife. Instead of building a large clubhouse, Verandah’s amenities center was designed within an expansive oak hammock with several individual buildings to reduce the impact on the trees. More than 100 oak trees and 1300 sabal palms have been transplanted in the community.

Water conservation measures include the installation of a dual water system that will operate with reclaimed water for irrigation when the service becomes available in the area, and the use of native and drought-tolerant vegetation in common areas, amenity buildings and homesites. The Bonita Bay Group teamed up with TECO Peoples Gas to offer natural gas, a more efficient energy source, to single-family homes for sale as well as amenity buildings in Verandah.

Green Homes ~ The Florida Green Building Coalition has certified all of Verandah’s single-family homes. Certification is based on energy efficiency, water conservation, indoor environmental health and use of environmentally friendly materials.

River Village ~ Nestled into a picturesque oak hammock near Orange River, Verandah’s River Village is the center of community activities, including nine miles of walkways and fitness trails, a river walk and bicycle paths.
