Available Saddlebrook Homes & Homesites

Your timeline and desired level of personalization will help determine where to begin.

We can help you confirm:

  • Available homes and their current prices.
  • Each home’s construction stage.
  • Remaining homesites and applicable premiums.
  • Floor plans offered in your preferred community.
  • Which selections are still available.
  • Estimated completion dates.
  • HOA dues and maintenance services.
  • Current financing incentives, if available.

Quick Move-In Homes vs. Building From the Beginning

Consideration

Quick Move-In Home

Building From the Beginning

Timeline

May offer a shorter path to moving in

Requires the full construction process

Selections

Some or all finishes may be finalized

Generally offers more opportunities to choose approved finishes

Floor plan

Layout is already selected

Choose from plans available for the community and homesite

Seeing the home

May be completed or far enough along to tour

Decisions begin with plans, examples, and specifications

Best fit

Buyers prioritizing timing or fewer decisions

Buyers prioritizing personalization

We can compare both approaches based on your move-in date, budget, and must-have features.

Quick Move-In Homes

Saddlebrook’s Quick Move-In homes may be completed, nearing completion, or in an earlier construction stage.

Some may still offer selection opportunities, while others have been designed with finishes already chosen. Before purchasing, we can confirm the home’s specifications, selected upgrades, remaining choices, and estimated closing timeline.

“Quick Move-In” does not always mean immediately available. The completion date should be confirmed for the specific property.

Semi-Custom Building & Personalization

Starting earlier in the process may allow you to choose an available homesite, select an approved floor plan, and personalize certain features.

Depending on the home, opportunities may include cabinetry, countertops, flooring, tile, paint, trim, hardware, and fixtures. Structural options must be discussed separately and approved before plans become final.

Saddlebrook describes its process as beginning with the community, homesite, and floor plan, followed by design selections through its Design Studio.

We can help you determine:

  • Which options are available for your plan.
  • Which features are included in the price.
  • What proposed upgrades will cost.
  • When selections must be finalized.
  • Whether changes require additional payments.
  • Which choices have already been made on an under-construction home.

The Saddlebrook Design Studio

For eligible new builds, Saddlebrook’s West Knoxville Design Studio allows buyers to choose finishes and fixtures with guidance from an in-house designer.

Before the appointment, it helps to gather inspiration, tour available homes, and establish an upgrade budget. Saddlebrook also recommends previewing the studio before making final selections.

We can help you prepare by identifying your priorities and thinking through how the choices will work together. Consider which upgrades improve daily living, which reflect your personal style, and which could be completed more easily after moving in.

The $25,000 Contract Deposit

Saddlebrook requires a $25,000 nonrefundable deposit when entering into a purchase contract.

This is an important upfront commitment to include in your planning. Before signing, we will review the deposit provisions, payment timing, how the deposit is applied, and any additional payments required for selections or upgrades.

Because the deposit is nonrefundable, it is important to feel comfortable with the home, financing, overall budget, and contract terms before moving forward. The signed agreement governs the deposit and the purchase.

Understanding Your Total Purchase Cost

The advertised home price is one part of your budget. Before committing, confirm what is included and which expenses may be additional.

Items to review include:

  • Homesite premiums.
  • Structural options.
  • Design upgrades.
  • Required deposits and additional payments.
  • Closing costs and prepaid expenses.
  • HOA dues and initial contributions.
  • Property taxes and insurance.
  • Items needed after closing, such as window treatments or appliances not included.

A model home may display optional finishes. We can help you distinguish between standard features and upgrades when comparing homes.

Low-Maintenance Living

Saddlebrook offers communities where the HOA provides selected maintenance services. These can appeal to buyers who travel frequently or prefer spending less time on yard work.

Depending on the community, services may include lawn mowing, edging, landscaping, lawn treatments, irrigation-related services, trash pickup, or common-area maintenance.

The exact services must be confirmed for each neighborhood. Lawn care does not automatically include roof replacement, exterior repairs, or every landscaping task.

Before purchasing, we can review the dues, restrictions, and division of responsibilities between the homeowner and HOA.

Choosing a Floor Plan & Homesite

Saddlebrook’s published floor plans include one-level layouts, one-level homes with bonus spaces, main-level primary suites, and multilevel townhomes. Plans and garage configurations vary by community.

When comparing options, consider:

  • Primary bedroom location.
  • Guest bedrooms and bathrooms.
  • Home office or flex space.
  • Bonus rooms and storage.
  • Kitchen and pantry layout.
  • Garage dimensions.
  • Outdoor living areas.
  • Backyard usability and privacy.

The homesite also affects how the home lives. Driveway slope, sunlight, neighboring homes, easements, and drainage deserve attention before making a selection.

If a fence, pool, or expanded outdoor space is important, confirm restrictions and feasibility before committing.

Financing Your Saddlebrook Home

You can compare financing options with your own lender. Saddlebrook also has relationships with lenders familiar with its process who may be able to help with some purchase costs.

Any available incentive should be confirmed for your transaction and compared with the interest rate, APR, lender fees, and total closing costs.

We can help you gather the information needed to make a clear comparison with your lender.

Inspections & the Punch-List Walkthrough

An independent inspection provides an additional review of the home’s condition and systems beyond required code inspections.

We can confirm the inspection provisions, scheduling requirements, and access procedures for your purchase.

The punch-list walkthrough with the builder’s representative is also an opportunity to identify items needing attention. We will help document those items and confirm the agreed corrections and completion timing.

Saddlebrook Warranty Coverage

Saddlebrook provides a one-year warranty covering qualifying materials and workmanship, beginning on the closing date.

Coverage is subject to the written warranty’s terms, exclusions, and reporting requirements. Individual products may also carry separate manufacturer warranties.

Keep your warranty manual and service instructions after closing. We can help you understand the reporting process and remain a resource as questions arise.
