Two Rivers master-planned community is rapidly emerging as one of the most dynamic developments in the Tampa Bay region. With 7,500 planned homes, townhomes, villas and multi-family, 600,000 square feet of retail, and a new public school coming soon, it’s redefining the growth trajectory of the northeastern Tampa submarket. Their strong vision has helped buyers remain confident and kept sales strong even among a regionally slow market.

“Two Rivers was built to support growth in East Pasco — in housing, lifestyle, and business,” said Jeff Hills, President of Eisenhower Property Group. “It’s exciting to see that vision taking shape with strong sales and our centerpiece club coming to life.”

A Master-Planned Vision

Developed by Eisenhower Property Group, Two Rivers is a 6,000-acre property strategically located off State Road 56 between Morris Bridge Road and U.S. Highway 301. Builders are actively constructing homes ranging from the mid $300,000s to over $1 million, including single-family homes and villas, with future plans for luxury townhomes, build-to-rent, and apartment options. The Pasco side of the development has already seen more than 1,200 homes sold, with the Childers village fully sold.

“We’ve offered incentives, but ultimately the quality product, amenities, and the value in what’s to come at Two Rivers are what have kept sales steady here.” said Sean Strickler, Division President of Pulte West Florida Division.

“Buyers are drawn to Two Rivers not just for the homes, but for the nature, lifestyle and the planned shopping, dining and entertainment,” said Brandon Cleveland, Vice President of Sales at Taylor Morrison. “Our quality home designs matched with Two River’s amenities and the value of this beautiful location are what makes this a desirable place to call home.”

Lifestyle Features and Commercial

In addition to clubhouses in the first two villages, the community will complete two new lifestyle features with an anticipated opening in late 2026: The Landing and The Nest. The community broke ground on The Landing in June, a $27 million private social club that will include on-site dining, tennis and pickleball courts, a resort-style pool and slide tower, and wellness facilities.

The commercial component is equally ambitious, with entitlements for 3 million square feet of retail, office and industrial space.

“Two Rivers is a great addition to Pasco County’s economy,” said Bill Cronin, President/CEO, Pasco EDC. “By creating communities that attract workforce and businesses alike, this development will drive long-term investment while enhancing the overall quality of life in our county.”

Market Performance

While Tampa Bay overall is experiencing a shift toward a buyer’s market with resale listings up and prices moderating, Two Rivers stands out with sustained interest from mostly relocations within the state and local homeowners seeking to upgrade. According to a John Burns Research & Consulting report, despite the slowing prices recently, longer-term values are up considerably in Florida.

Looking Ahead

With construction progressing rapidly and demand remaining resilient, Two Rivers is poised to become a cornerstone of Tampa Bay’s housing market. Its blend of affordability, luxury, and lifestyle offerings positions it uniquely to capture a wide range of buyers – from first-time homeowners to move-up families and retirees.

The full vision of Two Rivers is coming into focus: a community that not only meets the housing needs of Tampa Bay but elevates the standard for master-planned living in Florida. Sign up for community updates here. You can also reach out to info@tworiversfl.com for more information.
