We often say Newport Cove is the best place to live on the Chain O’ Lakes. Award-winning homes, an award-winning land plan, acres of open space and a community marina all add up to a year-round vacation lifestyle for our residents.

Newport Cove is a planned unit development. In other words, the land plan has slightly smaller and clustered home sites, large common green areas and lifestyle covenants. Underlying zoning ensures residents an upscale, well-maintained waterfront community for decades to come.

Since 40 percent of the site (or 15 acres) is open space, the vast majority of the homes overlook beautifully landscaped common areas. These include swaths of native plants, the waterfront park, walking and cart paths and a lighted waterfront walk-way along the community’s 1,800 feet of Bluff Lake shoreline. An underground storm water system ensures that no runoff from the development ends up in the lakes. A state-of-the-art community treatment plant offers sanitary sewer service to the homes. Indeed, Newport Cove is a very “green” community.

Newport Cove also is a diverse community, with residents aged from one to eighty-something.  But, all houses have one element in common. Because strict architectural guidelines govern the construction of each home, all are built with the same high-quality materials and the same coastal-style architecture.

A planned unit development also has guidelines that make community living more enjoyable for all residents. For example, an “eyesore” clause prohibits sheds, trailers or boats in Newport Cove yards.
