Sunbridge

Another new community heading to St. Cloud, Sunbridge will be a community where modern living and environmental stewardship go hand in hand. Currently offering two distinct neighborhoods, Sunbridge makes it easy to find a home that fits your lifestyle.

Weslyn Park is ideal for all ages, featuring imaginative parks, scenic trails and fresh architectural styles—all within easy reach of schools and amenities. It’s a place where daily life is made more joyful, complete with a community pool and endless outdoor spaces to explore.

For residents 55 and older, Del-Webb Sunbridge offers a resort-style, low-maintenance lifestyle in a gated setting. Homeowners enjoy exclusive access to the Hammock Club, a 27,000-square-foot clubhouse with a tavern, pool, classes and a full-time lifestyle director—all designed to enrich active adult living.

Beyond its neighborhoods, Sunbridge is deeply committed to sustainability. In partnership with universities and conservation groups, the community prioritizes water preservation, renewable energy and ecological diversity. Natural lakes, native landscaping and protected habitats enhance both beauty and function.

Waterlin

Waterlin is an ambitious new master-planned community in Kissimmee that promises a lifestyle centered around nature, connectivity and meaningful community ties.

A joint venture between Wheelock Communities and Gentry Land Company, Waterlin will reflect a shared vision of building communities that inspire connection and well-being. It aims to become a model for sustainable and inclusive town-building in Florida.

Spanning 6,000 acres along two miles of Lake Tohopekaliga (Lake Toho) shoreline, Waterlin’s plans include pairing modern infrastructure with natural beauty to create a livable and future-ready town. The development will feature multiple neighborhoods and town centers connected by an extensive trail system, open green spaces and preserved wetlands.

Located just off the Florida Turnpike, Waterlin offers convenient access to Orlando and key regional destinations. Its position near Lake Toho—renowned for world-class bass fishing—should entice those looking for a lake-focused neighborhood. The community will also include urban hubs, employment centers and top-rated educational institutions, fostering a live-work-play environment.

Designed with all generations in mind, Waterlin prioritizes high-speed connectivity, electric vehicle readiness and multigenerational social programming. Residents can expect year-round events, shared civic spaces and health-focused amenities that support lifelong wellness and learning.

Wyld Oaks

Wyld Oaks has high hopes of becoming one of Central Florida’s most exciting new neighborhoods, right in the heart of Apopka—one of the fastest-growing areas in the Orlando region. Surging residential growth, the arrival of major industries and the new expressway have positioned northwest Orlando as a booming submarket, and Wyld Oaks stands at its epicenter.

This community will not only serve the more than 12,900 housing units already under development nearby but will also meet the rising demand for vibrant retail, dining and lifestyle experiences. Its vision is tailored to the needs of a rapidly expanding population, offering residents more than just convenience—it promises a destination.

Apopka’s rich legacy as a hub for commercial growing and its historic identity as the “Indoor Foliage Capital of the World” laid the groundwork for a thriving local economy. Today, that legacy evolves with Wyld Oaks. It’s a neighborhood designed to grow with its people—rooted in history, flourishing with modern opportunity.

Center Lake Ranch

Center Lake Ranch is located in the city of St. Cloud. This thoughtfully planned community intends to blend modern living with the charm of old Florida.

Spanning 1,000 acres of uplands, lowlands, ponds and canals, Center Lake Ranch will offer a walkable, nature-integrated lifestyle. Residents will enjoy a trail system winding through green spaces, pocket parks and a 10-acre central park, along with a cabana pool and future community center offering coffee shops, dining and essential services.

The community’s first three neighborhoods will each have a distinct character while maintaining architectural harmony. Homes by trusted builders like M/I Homes and Taylor Morrison will include everything from townhomes and bungalows to villas and estate homes.

With resort-style amenities, lush landscapes and easy access to nearby Orlando, Center Lake Ranch is more than a development—it’s a sanctuary in the making. For those seeking a peaceful, connected lifestyle close to city conveniences, it just might be the perfect place to call home.

Magnifica

A future planned community coming to Windermere, Magnifica is billed as more than aesthetics—it’s an experience. It will feature estate-sized homes, a 70,000-square-foot spa, championship golf, tennis courts and curated wellness programs. The community’s design philosophy, “To Know and To Be Known,” ensures every detail—from concierge services to immersive nature trails—is crafted to foster meaningful connections and personalized living.

What sets Magnifica apart is its commitment to sustainable luxury. Eco-conscious design, advanced guest intelligence systems and holistic wellness offerings are woven into every aspect of the community, prioritizing both environmental stewardship and emotional well-being.

Positioned among Windermere’s prestigious enclaves, Magnifica provides a unique proposition: expansive estate living paired with resort-style amenities in a private, members-only setting.
