Register-First Rule
Taylor Morrison WILL NOT honor late buyer's agent registration. Contact Own Luxury Homes® before your first TM contact.
Design Center Strategy
Taylor Morrison's design center is the most important financial decision after the base price. Own Luxury Homes® guides every selection: what adds resale value, what to skip, what to negotiate.
TM Mortgage Comparison
Taylor Morrison's preferred lender offers incentives. Own Luxury Homes® runs the math to determine the true cost of the incentive vs. outside rate.
Esplanade Brand Premium
The Esplanade brand commands 10–15% premium at resale. Maintaining brand standards — upgrades, landscaping, HOA compliance — protects that premium.
One-Story Emphasis
All 8 McKinnon Groves floor plans are one-story. This is a specific market positioning — Own Luxury Homes® helps you determine if one-story suits your lifestyle and resale buyer profile.
Ryan Brown — Principal Broker & CEO, FL BK3626873The Taylor Morrison buyer who registers Own Luxury Homes® before their first sales center visit gets the same home for the same price — but with professional contract review, upgrade strategy, lot selection, and construction inspections. The buyer who doesn't register gives that $10,000–$15,000 commission back to the builder.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Esplanade brand at McKinnon Groves the same as other Esplanade communities?
Yes — Esplanade is Taylor Morrison's premium resort-style brand with a consistent amenity package (poolside bar, spa concierge, wine club, pickleball). McKinnon Groves extends the brand to Wellness Way with the same lifestyle positioning as Esplanade at Highland Ranch and other TM Esplanade communities.
What does 'all-ages' mean at McKinnon Groves?
All-ages means there is no age restriction — buyers of any age can purchase. This is distinct from 55+ communities (which require at least one resident to be 55+). McKinnon Groves is designed with one-story floor plans that appeal to 55+ buyers and downsizers, but is legally all-ages.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Wellness Way corridor in Clermont FL?
Wellness Way is a 15,000+ acre planned mixed-use development corridor in Clermont, Lake County FL, anchored by the future Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine (LECOM) health campus and several new master-planned residential communities. The corridor runs along the Olympus development near US-27 and FL-50, approximately 20-25 minutes from Disney World and 30-35 minutes from the I-4 corridor. Communities in the corridor include Del Webb Lakehaven, Esplanade at McKinnon Groves, Hickory Groves, Panther Run, Integra Heights, Lakehaven Estates, Parkside Trails, Reflections at Olympus, and Wellness Ridge. Ryan Brown · FL BK3626873.
Is Wellness Way a good place to buy in 2026?
Wellness Way and the Clermont/Olympus corridor offer new construction in a market that is 20-25 minutes from Disney World, has significant infrastructure investment underway (Olympus development, US-27 widening, new Lake County schools), and has lower price points than comparable Orlando/Orange County communities. Lake County has no CDD in most Wellness Way communities (check with OLH for each specific community), which reduces monthly cost of ownership.
