Description/Overview

Heritage Isle by Lennar is a 478-acre active adult community in Viera, Florida. Viera is located in Melbourne on the Florida Space Coast. Heritage Isle consists of several individual villages, which are all connected by the beautifully landscaped Legacy Boulevard as well as pedestrian bridges. Luscious trees and plants frame the route by day, while double acorn street lamps softly light the way at night.

Viera is a prestigious, master-planned community which sprang from an American Dream by Yugoslavian immigrants. Their descendants, the Duda family, used their talent to make that vision a reality starting in the early 1980s by establishing the Viera Company. In all of Viera, more than 19,000 inhabitants reside in more than 8,000 beautiful homes on over 22,000 acres.
