Master Planned Communities such as Lake Mary's "Heathrow" have plenty of options for housing. Heathrow is considered one of the most desirable communities to live, work and play!
Situated just west of I-4 off of Lake Mary Blvd. is the 2000+ acre community. Developed in the 1990's and later, Heathrow has quickly become a desireable address by many locals and those relocating from outside of Florida.
Some of the reasons for Heathrow's popularity are:
- Variety of Housing Options: There are condos, villas, single family homes and large estates within the community. Having options makes it appealing to many...especially those who might have other family members or friends who want to live nearby. I know of several families who live in larger single family homes within the community who have parents who also live in the community on one of the tennis villas or condos.
Affordability: For those with a budget of $250,000 to well over $2M, Heathrow has a product and a price to fit most Buyer's needs.
Amenities: Heathrow is a private golf community with a Country Club, tennis courts, pool, fitness facility, Recreation Building, playgrounds, soccer fields, a baseball/softball field, volleyball court, basketball court, fishing ponds and miles of walking trails. For those who value amenities such as these, there are few communities in Seminole County that compare to Heathrow!
Access to Highways: With two-security gated entrances, Heathrow is convenient to Lake Mary, Longwood, Altamonte, Maitland, Downtown Orlando, Sanford and the beaches. In less than five minutes from leaving your driveway, you can be on the interstate headed to your destination.
- Dining and Shopping Nearby: Just outside the South entrance of Heathrow is Lake Mary Blvd. where one can easily find several grocery stores, major retail chains and dining options. Be sure to stop by Stonewood Grill and Tavern for dinner or drinks. The food and service are exceptional!
- Outside the North entrance to Heathrow is Colonial Town Park. Read my post "Colonial Town Park: More Than a Friday Night Destination" and you'll know why this is such a popular "hot spot" in Lake Mary.
Educational System: Heathrow is within the Seminole County Public Schools system, which has consistently proven to be the top in the area. 93% of Seminole County Schools scored either an "A" or a "B" for the 2007-2008 school year and the schools this community is zoned for were no different! (To see which schools Heathrow is zoned for, please visit the Seminole County Public Schools website as school zoning can be modified by as needed within the County).
