Riverland, GL Homes’ impressive 4,000-acre master-planned community in Port St. Lucie, has been a resounding success since its launch in 2018. Taking its already well-known and fantastic lifestyle to the next level, Itchko Ezratti and Misha Ezratti are proud that Riverland offers amenities on a grand scale that can’t be matched.
Misha Ezratti said, “Nothing compares to the magnificent size and variety of high-end facilities and resort-style amenities found at Riverland. The numbers don’t lie!”
Riverland features a 16-acre Sports & Racquet Club with a 51,000 sq. ft. Wellness & Fitness Center, a 5-acre Arts & Culture Center with an 11,550 sq. ft. Creativity Hub, multiple City Parks, and a future Town Center all connected by miles of traffic-free pathways on its very own Paseo and greenways.
“These amenities are just the beginning,” Itchko Ezratti said.
With 16 acres dedicated entirely to fitness, the Sports & Racquet Club at Riverland gives homeowners direct access to over 40 courts, including pickleball, tennis, and bocce, plus a Pro Shop on-site that provides everything you’ll need to look and play your best. Itchko Ezratti reminds residents that the Riverland Sports Director is always on hand to organize clinics, leagues, round robins, tournaments, and fun events for them to enjoy year-round.
Those who live at Riverland will never need a gym membership again! The stunning Wellness & Fitness Center is made up of 51,000 square feet of space that features everything from a massive 16,000 sq. ft. gym with state-of-the-art cardio and strength training equipment, personal training, and dedicated group fitness classes to an indoor pool and sports courts, plus outdoors you’ll find two six-lane lap pools, a resistance pool and workout recovery whirlpool spa, and the RiverFresh Café offering healthy food options.
A masterpiece within the master-planned community, the 5-acre Arts & Culture Center is the heart of creativity at Riverland. Designed for all experience levels, whether you’re an amateur artist or the next Picasso, someone who enjoys cooking, or an up-and-coming Iron Chef, this is the place to be. The 11,550-square-foot Creativity Hub offers everything from art studios, classrooms, and high-end demonstration kitchens to community gardens for growing fresh farm-to-table cuisine and the tranquil Artist Garden for the ultimate inspiration.
The one-of-a-kind Paseo and greenways set the community apart and brings neighbors together at Riverland. Designed for eco-friendly fun and built exclusively for pedestrian, bicycle, and golf cart passage, the Paseo and greenways are perfect for getting homeowners where they need to go without ever having to get in a car.
Itchko Ezratti is excited for all current and future Riverland homeowners who get all of this included, plus a dedicated 5-acre Social Club within every Valencia 55+ community at Riverland. Each features a full-time lifestyle director who creates a comprehensive program of fun activities, active clubs, and vibrant events year-round.
