First — What Canterbury Place Actually Is

Canterbury Place is not a separate community.

It is a street and sub-section inside Victoria Grove.

That means:

  • Same HOA
  • Same manned gate
  • Same amenities

No separate HOA fee. No additional layer.

The Real Buyer Mistake

The most common mistake I see:

Buyers assume Canterbury Place is a different or better deal than Victoria Grove.

It’s not. You are buying into Victoria Grove either way.

Once you understand that, your decision becomes much clearer.

Why Buyers Target Canterbury Place Specifically

This is where Canterbury Place stands out:

Gas appliances.

  • Gas range
  • Gas water heater
  • Gas dryer

In South Florida, most homes are all-electric. So if gas is important to you, this becomes a very specific search — and Canterbury Place consistently delivers it.

Victoria Grove HOA — What You're Actually Paying For

HOA runs about $250/month (verify before closing).

That includes:

  • Xfinity cable + internet
  • Alarm monitoring
  • Lawn care + pest control
  • 24-hour manned gate
  • Pool + spa
  • Fitness center
  • Tennis courts
  • Hockey rink + soccer field

This is a full-service HOA — not a basic one.

Homes + Lot Types

  • Built 2002–2005
  • 3–5 bedrooms
  • 2–2.5 bathrooms
  • 2-car garages

Lot types vary:

  • Lakefront
  • Canal
  • Cul-de-sac (larger lots)
  • Interior

Pricing — How to Think About It

Most homes range from $420K to $560K (verify current MLS).

Here’s the trade-off:

You’re typically below new construction pricing in Westlake — but you’re getting an established community, mature landscaping, and gas systems already in place.

Due Diligence Checklist (Don’t Skip This)

  • Confirm HOA fee with GRS Community Management
  • Verify roof age (2002–2005 construction)
  • Check age of gas water heater
  • Inspect gas lines during inspection period
  • Verify school zoning
  • Confirm lot type before making offer
