Paseo offers resort-style amenities to families with a lovely pool; a poolside gazebo serving refreshments; large spa; a lap pool; a children’s water playground; tennis courts; a fishing pier and a slew of interior amenities and upgrades that will please house hunters.  All homes include top-notch amenities like Corian countertops, oak cabinets, and GE Appliances.  Paseo’s Village Center includes a full-service concierge, bistro, ice cream parlor, a pub, an Internet café, coffee shop, fitness center, a business center and library, spa services and a 90-seat theater. The popular Traditional Series of homes in Phase II of Esperanza at Paseo will bring 49 new home sites to Esteban Drive.  Esperanza is located via a landscaped bridge directly across from Paseo’s Village Center.  Surrounded by Six Mile Cypress Slough, Esperanza offers protected and serene natural views.  Stock Development is offering four models priced from the $380s:

A new 12-unit building of flats and town homes is under construction at Paseo.  These units are located along Paseo’s lake and water views are available from several units.  Residents will have a motor court area in the rear and garages are in the back.  Six different floor plans are available.  Flats and townhomes include 2 and 3-story designs and 2-4 BR/2-3 BA/1,227-2,084 SF, priced from $160s.  Paseo also offers 6 casita floor plans ranging from 2-3 BR/2.5-3 BA/1,531-2,080 SF and 2 floors of living space.  The casita blends the ease of maintenance-free living with the privacy of a single-family home in residences that are built around a common driveway. Paseo has furnished models still open in Phase I, including flats, town homes, casitas and single-family models in Esperanza.  Many are ready for immediate move-in.  Paseo is located off Palomino Lane,  1.5 miles north of Daniels Parkway.  Here is a resource to learn more about the community and view active Paseo real estate listings.
