Prominence Homes for Sale

Living in Prominence

Walton County approved Phase I of Prominence in July 2004 and granted final approval of its development of regional impact order in January 2007. D.R. Horton, Inc. bought the property in November 2012, and county commissioners adopted an amended order, Ordinance 2013-20, on November 7, 2013. That order laid out seven phases, three labeled South and four labeled North on either side of County Road 30A, projected build-out by December 31, 2023, and set its own expiration at December 31, 2024, subject to statutory extensions. Every street address the county lists on the Prominence plats reads Inlet Beach.

On Milestone Drive, York Lane, Pine Lands Loop and Dune Comet Lane, the county codes every home on the plats named North as a townhouse, each with about 1,500 to 1,900 square feet of living area on a parcel under 1,200 square feet. The plats named South hold mostly detached houses of roughly 2,400 to 4,900 square feet on lots of about 3,400 to 10,300 square feet, as does the original Phase 1 plat; a county legal description runs from its northeast corner along the south right-of-way of 30A. Two attached groups sit among them: Phase 1 townhouses on Pleasant Street above 4,000 square feet, and a Phase 1A South group on Wharf Lane sized like the north side. The state tax roll dates one Pleasant Street townhouse to 2007 and every other home from 2014 through 2022.

The 2013 master plan drew two commercial blocks beside 30A in Prominence South, and the county separately records three Prominence Commercial "The Hub" plats on Hub Lane, their lots coded mostly for community shopping or restaurants. On each residential plat, the parcel whose county legal description reads all streets, common areas and easements lists its owner as Prominence Property Owners, a name that reads Prominence Property Owners Assoc Inc on the Phase 1 North plat alone. The 2013 order banned plants on the Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council's list of most invasive species from common areas and individual lots, and gave enforcement to the design review board established by the declaration of covenants and restrictions. Walton County's address and parcel records also code every record on the Prominence plats in flood zone X; confirm a given lot on the county's current flood map.
