SARASOTA, FL, December 28, 2012

Taylor Morrison is pleased to announce that it has begun construction in the Parrish community of River Plantation. Featured homes will include some of Taylor Morrison's most popular designs, all with four bedrooms and its trademark open space concepts.

River Plantation is a community enjoyed by many for its peaceful location. With oversized homesites and pedestrian-friendly streets, this neighborhood has many of today's most sought-after amenities, including a beautiful clubhouse with swimming pool, a playground, tennis and basketball courts, a canoe launch with access to the Manatee River, and a network of nature trails. River Plantation is located just down the street from A-rated Williams Elementary School.
River Plantation is particularly appealing to commuters who appreciate its excellent access to I-75 and I-275. Major retail establishments are nearby for everyday shopping, while the popular Ellenton Premium Outlets mall is less than eight miles away.
