What Is Bloomingdale Village Like?
Bloomingdale Village is a compact, deed-restricted section within the larger Bloomingdale community in Valrico. With just 57 single-family homes, it is one of the smaller subdivisions in the 32-section Bloomingdale master plan. The BVHOA was incorporated in 1996, and the community carries that mid-1990s Florida construction quality — concrete block, tile or shingle roofs, and floor plans that give you legitimate living space.
Homes are primarily 3 to 4 bedrooms, 1,500 to 2,400 square feet. Most have 2-car garages, screened lanais, and mature landscaping. The small size means you know your neighbors and the streets are quiet enough for evening walks.
What Does the HOA Cover?
The BVHOA enforces deed restrictions and maintains community standards. Fees are reasonable with no CDD fee. The residents handbook covers exterior modifications, landscaping, parking, and general upkeep — practical rather than oppressive.
