Coronado Estates: Breathtaking lakefront living

One of our most sought-after locations, Coronado Estates, offers an unparalleled opportunity to build your forever home on a lake-view lot in this prestigious community. Nestled in Jackson, MI along Price Lake, part of the Michigan Center Chain of Lakes, this stunning location provides breathtaking sunset views and convenient association lake access. Here, one step outside leads you to the tranquil beauty of the water, right from your own backyard.

These ready-to-build lots are already cleared and equipped with essential utilities, including gas, sewer, electric, phone and cable. If you’ve always dreamed of a home where nature meets luxury, Coronado Estates is the perfect place to bring that vision to life.

Beyond Coronado Estates, we also offer exclusive homesites throughout Jackson and its surrounding areas. These locations provide the best of both worlds—proximity to city conveniences while enjoying the peace of a suburban setting.
