Located approximately 20 minutes west of Orlando and close to Disney and all of the theme parks Winter Garden, a former citrus town, has become a very desirable place to live. Offering a diversity of housing options, "old" Winter Garden is known for its warm charm and historic downtown listed on the National Registry of Historic Places. It is a favorite destination for West Orange residents and those bicycle enthusiasts traveling the West Orange Trail. It is also home to one of Central Florida's premier shopping centers, Winter Garden Village at Fowlers Grove and to one of the top regional Farmers Markets in Central Florida held every Saturday morning.
As part of the new development of Horizon West, Winter Garden is one of the hottest markets in the entire Orlando metroplex. Horizon West is the largest master-planned development in Central Florida and is a cluster of separate but interconnected villages served by a Town Center. The property encompasses tens of thousands of acres and will ultimately be home to more than 60,000 people. The six villages each consist of two to four neighborhoods. Schools and community parks are within walking distance of the homes and the size of each neighborhood is pegged to the capacity of its school. Each village has its own commercial center with a grocery and drug store and a major mixed-use Town Center with homes, shops, offices, and public areas serving all the villages. Thousands of acres have been preserved and bicycle and pedestrian paths line every street and connect the villages and neighborhoods to one another. Horizon West couples the natural beauty and resources of west Orange County with a well-planned, aesthetically pleasing community that says "WELCOME HOME".
Hamlin, a 640-acre master-planned development on the east side of the Western Beltway (State Road 429) is destined to become the heart of Horizon West and is located within the Town Center of Horizon West. For more information, visit Hamlin.
