In NW Rochester MN, Lennar Homes proposes a large residential development plan that is said to produce 454 lots. The proposal was made on May 14th of 2025 for the 185 acre space, that will also include 12 outlots.

Lennar Homes is the one of the top residential developers in the United States. Within Rochester so far we have seen them in The Ponds of Highland Hills, located just east of Northern Hills Golf Course. As well as Hadley Hills, located in northeast Rochester on Hadley Creek Golf Course, and Essex Estates, located in north Rochester and borders Essex Park. All stated on their websites newsroom - newsroom.lennar.com.

Pebble Creek is a development that has been slated for this large development. The parcel has been owned by Rochester recognized home builder DeWitz. We will see what the future holds for transfer of this ownership of land to Lennar. The sale price of land has not been disclosed per my research on Olmsted County Records. PDF Plans below are what has been submitted to the city of Rochester.
