Umatilla's Largest Development Taking Shape Quickly

    Umatilla’s largest development to date is underway, with the first phase of Magnolia Pointe’s estimated 500 homes jumping out of the ground in recent weeks.  Over a dozen homes are in various stages of framing this week, and several more sites have seen concrete slabs poured.
    The development, located on a former fernery on CR 450SE near the Southside Umatilla neighborhood, was in development for over a decade before breaking ground late last year.  Roads and underground infrastructure preceded the current work.
    A development of Forestar communities, the project covers 178 acres, with just under 500 homes planned in several phases.  The project carries a density of 2.68 units per acre, and lot widths range from 10-50 feet. Minimum setbacks are ten feet.  Phase one is expected to include 223 homes.   Planned amenities include a community pool and cabana, green spaces, lakeside views, walking trails, and more.
