Where Laureate Park fits within Lake Nona
Lake Nona is a 17-square-mile planned community inside Orlando city limits, southeast of Orlando International Airport, planned and developed by Tavistock Development Company. The City divides it into four neighborhoods, and Laureate Park falls in Lake Nona South along with Lake Nona Medical City.
That matters for two reasons. You are in the City of Orlando, so city services and city millage apply. And Laureate Park is one of many Lake Nona neighborhoods, so it helps to compare it with gated options like VillageWalk before you choose. Our Lake Nona guide covers the wider area.
Which builders are active and what they list
The developer describes Laureate Park as brightly colored bungalows, townhomes and multi-story homes with front porches close to the street. It lists these builders and starting prices:
| Builder | Home type | Size (sq ft) | Listed from |
|---|---|---|---|
| Craft Homes | Single-family, townhomes | 1,773 to 3,413 | $500,000s |
| David Weekley Homes | Single-family | 1,422 to 3,678 | $500,000s |
| Dream Finders Homes | Single-family | 1,976 to 3,150 | $600,000s |
| ICI Homes | Single-family | 2,136 to 3,100 | Low $700,000s |
| Toll Brothers at Alora | Townhomes | Not listed | $500,000s |
DeVoe Custom Homes, Envy Custom Homes and Barcellona Homes build custom homes. Starting prices are builder marketing figures and change often, so ask each sales office for the current price sheet, lot premiums and what is included. For more on buying new, see our Orlando new construction guide.
What resale homes are worth nearby
Zillow does not publish a figure for Laureate Park alone. Its typical home value for the Lake Nona South neighborhood was $715,622 in August 2026, down 0.2% over the year. That area also includes Medical City and other subdivisions, so use it as a benchmark, not a price for a specific home. The Orlando ZIP code guide has values for the Lake Nona ZIPs.
Resales compete directly with new builder inventory here. If you are buying a resale, compare it with the builder's current incentives on a similar plan. If you are selling, expect buyers to make that same comparison.
What amenities come with the neighborhood
The developer lists the Laureate Park Aquatic Center, the LP Fit fitness facility, a village center with local restaurants, dog parks, parks and playgrounds, community gardens and autonomous shuttles. Ask the HOA which of these are included in your dues, and whether guests or non-residents pay separate fees.
How CDD and HOA costs work in Laureate Park
Lake Nona's roads, stormwater systems and other infrastructure were financed by special districts that sell tax-exempt bonds and repay them through assessments on property owners. Several are active in Lake Nona, including the Boggy Creek Improvement District, the Myrtle Creek Improvement District, the Greeneway Improvement District and Poitras East CDD. Poitras East, for example, collects both debt service and operations and maintenance charges on the Orange County tax bill.
We could not confirm from public district pages which district covers each Laureate Park parcel, so check this home by home:
- Look at the non-ad valorem section of the parcel's last tax bill for the district name and amount.
- Ask whether the bond portion can be paid off, and for the payoff amount, through the district manager.
- Ask the HOA for current dues and any sub-association fees, and get an estoppel letter before closing.
Add city and county property tax to those figures. Our Orange County property tax guide explains the rest of the bill.

The City of Orlando groups it into the Lake Nona South area along with Lake Nona Medical City. Because Lake Nona is inside Orlando city limits, City of Orlando services and millage apply.

Builder starting prices range from the $500,000s for Craft Homes, David Weekley and Toll Brothers townhomes to the low $700,000s for ICI Homes. Zillow's typical home value for the wider Lake Nona South area was $715,622 in August 2026.
Does Laureate Park have a CDD?+
Lake Nona infrastructure was financed by improvement districts and CDDs, such as the Boggy Creek, Myrtle Creek and Greeneway improvement districts and Poitras East CDD, which assess property owners through the tax bill. Which one applies depends on the parcel, so check the non-ad valorem assessments on the home's most recent Orange County tax bill before you make an offer.
