Mattamy Homes Expands Tampa Bay Presence with Three New Communities

Mattamy Homes Expands Its Tampa Bay Footprint

Mattamy Homes, North America's largest family-owned homebuilder, has made significant strides in the Tampa Bay area by acquiring three new properties—Sun Bay Townes in Tampa, Amara Bay Residences Marina in St. Petersburg, and Skyhawk in Lithia, Florida. This latest expansion marks an important phase in the company’s vision for enhancing housing options within a region experiencing rapid growth and demand.

Bringing a New Urban Experience to Tampa

First up is Sun Bay Townes, Mattamy’s inaugural community located directly within the city limits of Tampa, specifically at the intersection of West Pearl Avenue and South Manhattan Avenue. This development will consist of 54 three-story townhomes situated in the Gandy/Sun Bay South neighborhood. Future residents will benefit from the community's advantageous location, just 0.3 miles from Gandy Boulevard and under one mile from the Selmon Expressway. This proximity enables easy access to major hubs like midtown Tampa, downtown Tampa, and MacDill Air Force Base.

The townhomes at Sun Bay Townes promise modern living with three to four bedrooms, three to three-and-a-half baths, and private outdoor spaces, catering to diverse family dynamics. Priced starting in the mid-$600s, this community is expected to break ground immediately, with sales projected to commence in the fall of 2026.

Waterfront Living at Amara Bay Residences

Next, Mattamy has acquired 53 homesites for Amara Bay Residences Marina, located at 12000 Gandy Boulevard in St. Petersburg. This upscale, mixed-use community will feature Mattamy’s coastal-style townhome designs, each structured over two stories. Home sizes range from 2,371 to 2,470 square feet and include three to four bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths.

Amara Bay offers a coveted waterfront lifestyle with direct access to Tampa Bay, making it ideal for boating, kayaking, and paddleboarding enthusiasts. Its assortment of amenities includes a resort-style pool, a clubhouse with fitness and coworking spaces, a marina, and a waterfront restaurant, catering to a lifestyle driven by leisure and community engagement. Pricing for these homes is expected to start in the $700s, with construction set to begin shortly and sales anticipated to open in the summer of 2026.

Nature-Centric Living at Skyhawk

Lastly, the Skyhawk community represents a nature-focused living option in Lithia. Mattamy closed on a 102-acre site planned for approximately 172 single-family homes. These homes will span from 1,900 to 3,700 square feet, positioned on 50' and 60' homesites. Skyhawk stands to foster community interaction with plans for a centrally located park featuring a paved trail, a dog park, and picnic cabanas.

Conveniently located near major roads like US301 and I-75, Skyhawk will also provide easy access to various nature preserves and parks, including Lithia Springs Park. Families can benefit from highly-rated schools in the FishHawk Ranch district, with home prices expected to start in the mid-$400s as development kicks off this March.

Conclusion

In summary, Mattamy Homes’ expansion into the Tampa Bay area with these three new developments reflects its commitment to meeting the diverse needs of potential homeowners. From urban living in the heart of Tampa to the tranquil lifestyle offered in Lithia, the company is set to deliver quality homes tailored to the local community's desires and lifestyle.
