M/I Homes Launches Sales at Brighton in Venice, Bringing New Home Opportunities Starting in the Low $400s

Model Grand Opening Celebration Scheduled for July 11

Fort Myers, FL (July 8, 2026) — M/I Homes has officially launched sales at Brighton, a new residential community in Venice designed for homebuyers seeking the ease of new construction, a convenient location, and access to one of Southwest Florida’s most desirable coastal lifestyles.

Located along Jacaranda Boulevard, Brighton places residents near the best of Venice, with convenient access to I-75, U.S. 41, Downtown Venice, Venice Beach, Nokomis Beach, Caspersen Beach, shopping, dining, and everyday essentials.

At Brighton, M/I Homes will offer seven thoughtfully designed one- and two-story floorplans ranging from 1,521 to 2,810 square feet, with pricing starting in the low $400s. The community’s featured model home, the Amelia, showcases four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a two-car garage, and more than 2,300 square feet of living space, offering a first look at the style, functionality, and livability available within the community.

One of Brighton’s key advantages is its strong long-term value, with low HOA fees and no Community Development District fees, commonly known as No CDD. This combination gives buyers an opportunity to enjoy new construction in a desirable Venice location while helping keep ongoing ownership costs more manageable.

“Brighton offers buyers the opportunity to live close to everything people love about Venice while enjoying a quieter neighborhood setting,” said Danielle Calamela, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “The location, thoughtful home designs, and overall value make it a strong choice for buyers at every stage of life—whether they’re moving to the area, upsizing, or downsizing.”

The community will also feature outdoor amenities that complement the Venice lifestyle, including a gazebo overlooking a natural preserve, along with dedicated small and large dog parks.

To introduce the community to prospective homebuyers, M/I Homes will host the Brighton Model Grand Opening on Saturday, July 11, 2026, from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Guests are invited to tour the newly decorated model home, explore available floorplans, and learn more about new home opportunities at Brighton.

Those interested in attending are encouraged to RSVP here.
