History

Flowering Beauty

For nearly 90 years, the Preston family grew flowers – primarily the majestic and elegant gladiolus – on the property. Thousands of colorful blooms graced the landscape every year, benefitting from proximity to Sarasota Bay and the Gulf. The deep-rooted ties of the family to the land show in their commitment to transforming part of their farmland into a place that future generations will cherish. Today, we honor the legacy of the family and the land by calling this very special place SeaFlower.

Vision

Inspired by Traditional Neighborhood Developments

SeaFlower celebrates the heritage and authentic character of old Florida towns. The design is inspired by best practices of traditional neighborhood developments, including narrow roads, slower traffic, trails and pocket parks, and creating opportunities to build real relationships with neighbors. At its heart, the vibrant SeaFlower Village Center anchors the community alongside the breathtaking Lake Flores and its central lakefront park and trail, creating a mixed-use village that promotes walkability, connectivity, outdoor engagement, and an active, social lifestyle for homeowners at every stage of life.
