Jacksonville, FL – July 26, 2009 – D.R. Horton, Northeast Florida’s number one builder of affordable, quality-crafted homes, is again setting the benchmark for casually sophisticated living in northern St. Johns County. Within its new community Sevilla, the builder offers a stunning selection of single-family homes perfect for homebuyers in all stages of life.

Located just minutes from historic St. Augustine, Sevilla is quickly emerging as the area’s hottest address where residents can enjoy value-rich homes surrounded by a wealth of natural beauty. Nestled within the World Commerce Center, Sevilla also is conveniently less than one mile to major thoroughfare I-95.

“Sevilla’s close proximity to resort-style amenities combined with the superior quality of our product exemplifies what homeownership should be: prime location, carefully designed floorplans, outstanding prices and great lifestyle amenities,” said Lauren Eastman, sales director for D.R. Horton North Florida. “Its value is unparalleled in the St. Johns County market.”

Within Sevilla, D.R. Horton currently offers 74 spacious home sites that will accommodate 17 of its architecturally distinct home styles. Each home within the builder’s product line will feature beautiful, full-stucco exteriors.

“D.R. Horton prides itself on offering custom quality homes without the custom price,” said Dan Callahan, new home consultant for D.R. Horton North Florida. “Each residence is thoughtfully planned to make use of its flexible space, and to provide plenty of modern convenience. Now definitely is a great time to buy. For a limited time, homebuyers can receive all paid closing costs through one of our preferred lenders.”
