Providence is a gated, master-planned community built around a championship golf course in the Davenport corner of Polk County, where most streets are wide, landscaped, and quiet. It draws a mix of year-round families, remote workers, and second-home owners who want space and security without giving up a short drive to the theme parks. The lifestyle leans toward golf, walking the neighborhood loops, and easy weekends, and it sits in the same Davenport market as resort-style neighbors like Champions Gate and Solterra Resort.
For a buyer today, Providence reads as a mid-to-upper tier of the broader Davenport homes for sale market: 73 active listings with a median list price of $475,500 and homes that are selling at 99% of asking. The 81-day median days on market gives you room to negotiate, and with 21 of the active listings being new construction, you can choose between resale value and a build-to-suit option. Compared with the rental-focused product at Windsor Island and Highlands Reserve, Providence skews more toward primary residents and long-term holds.

Living in Providence
Providence is a gated, master-planned community in the Davenport area of Polk County, laid out around a championship golf course. The streets are wide and landscaped, the layout open and green, and the overall feel is quiet and residential rather than commercial. It's a place where you'll see golfers, dog-walkers, and families using the neighborhood loops more than crowds of tourists.
The community draws a mix of year-round families, remote workers who want space, and second-home owners who like being a short drive from the theme parks. The gated entrances are a core part of the appeal — 41 of the 73 active listings sit behind them — and they help give Providence its settled, long-term-owner character. This is a different vibe from the rental-heavy resort communities nearby.
Providence suits buyers who prioritize space, security, and golf-course surroundings over walkable retail and nightlife. If you want larger floor plans and a calm base that's still close to Orlando's attractions, it checks those boxes. Just come knowing it's a car-dependent, suburban-style neighborhood by design.
Neighborhoods and communities in Providence
Providence sits within the broader Davenport market, which is dense with master-planned and resort-style communities. Nearby, Champions Gate is known for its resort amenities and golf, while Solterra Resort leans heavily toward vacation-home product. These communities share the same general corridor and give buyers a wide spectrum of lifestyle and investment options.
Other notable neighbors include Windsor Island, which is oriented toward short-term rentals, and Highlands Reserve, another golf-centered community in the area. Ridgewood Lakes Village is also part of the local landscape. Each has its own mix of amenities, HOA structures, and buyer profiles, so it pays to compare more than one before deciding.
Within Providence itself, the gated sections and golf-course frontage shape the layout, and the community reads as more primary-residence than purely investment. If your goal is a long-term home with space, Providence's profile stands out against the more rental-driven options.

Homes for sale in Providence: prices and housing
There are currently 73 active listings in Providence, with a median list price of $475,500 and a range stretching from $320,000 to $1,089,000. The average price works out to about $199 per square foot, and the median home measures 2,561 square feet — larger than much of the surrounding Davenport inventory. Only two active listings are priced above $1 million, so most of the market lands in a broad mid-range band.
Over the last 12 months, 194 homes sold at a median price of $442,000, and sellers achieved 99% of asking on average. The median days on market is 81, which gives buyers meaningful time to evaluate and negotiate. New construction is a real option here: 21 of the active listings are brand new, alongside a steady supply of resale homes. Pool homes (15 active) and a handful of waterfront listings (4) round out the segment mix.
On carrying costs, the median HOA is about $147 per month, and median property taxes run roughly $4,964 per year. Because this is a master-planned community, some sections may carry CDD assessments, so always confirm the full monthly and annual cost on a specific property. Between resale and new builds, there's enough variety to match most budgets within the mid-to-upper Davenport range.
Schools in Providence
Providence falls within Polk County Public Schools, and the most commonly assigned schools are Loughman Oaks Elementary School, Shelley S. Boone Middle School, and Ridge Community High School. These are the schools tied to many addresses in the community, but assignments can vary by street and are subject to change.
Because zoning can shift year to year and sometimes within a single community, it's important to verify the exact school assignment for any specific home. The district's school-locator tool, keyed to the property address, is the reliable source for this. Don't rely on a listing's general description alone when schools are a priority.
Families who want to confirm capacity, programs, or magnet options should contact the schools and district directly. School boundaries are one of the details worth nailing down before you write an offer in Providence.
Getting around Providence
Providence is a car-oriented community, with its location in the Davenport corridor putting Orlando's attractions within a reasonable drive. Walt Disney World is about 36 minutes away, making it a practical base for park days and theme-park work commutes alike. The nearby highway network connects the area to the wider Orlando metro.
For travel, Orlando International Airport (MCO) is roughly 48 minutes from Providence, which keeps airport runs manageable for both residents and visiting owners. Universal Orlando is about 51 minutes, and Downtown Orlando is around 54 minutes, so the full spread of attractions and employment centers is within an hour.
There's no meaningful public transit for daily needs here, so plan on driving for groceries, dining, and work. That's typical for this part of Polk County, and it's a trade-off most Providence buyers accept in exchange for space and a quieter setting.
Is Providence a good place to live?
Providence is a strong choice if you want a gated, golf-course community with larger homes and a short drive to the Orlando attractions. The 2,561-square-foot median home size, the 41 gated active listings, and the mix of resale and new construction all point to a neighborhood built for families and long-term owners. It offers space and security in a well-organized, master-planned setting.
The trade-offs are the ones that come with suburban Davenport living: you'll need a car for nearly everything, and the location is closer to the theme parks than to downtown jobs or an airport. The median 81 days on market can work in a buyer's favor, and with sellers getting 99% of asking, pricing is realistic rather than frenzied. Budget for the roughly $147 monthly HOA, about $4,964 in annual taxes, and any CDD assessment.
For a buyer who values a quiet, gated community with golf, room to spread out, and easy park access, Providence delivers. Compare it against neighbors like Champions Gate and Solterra Resort to be sure the balance of primary-residence feel versus resort amenities matches what you want. Done with eyes open, it's a sensible, livable pick in the Davenport market.

Providence FAQs
Is Providence a good place to live?+
It suits buyers who want a gated, golf-oriented community with larger homes and an easy drive to the Orlando attractions. The 2,561-square-foot median home size and 41 gated active listings point to a neighborhood built for families and long-term owners rather than pure short-term rentals. If you value quiet streets and space over walkable retail, it's a strong fit.
Is Providence expensive?+
It sits in the mid-to-upper range for Davenport, with a median list price of $475,500 and active listings running from $320,000 up to $1,089,000. The average price is about $199 per square foot, and only two active listings are priced above $1 million, so most inventory lands in a broad middle band. Compared to resort neighbors like Champions Gate, the pricing is competitive for the square footage you get.
What do homes cost in Providence?+
Over the last 12 months, 194 homes sold at a median price of $442,000, while current active listings carry a median list price of $475,500. The gap between sold and list prices reflects a market where sellers are getting 99% of asking on average. Expect roughly $199 per square foot for a typical home around the 2,561-square-foot median.
How is the Providence market right now?+
There are 73 active listings and a median of 81 days on market, which gives buyers time to evaluate rather than rush. With 194 sales in the past year and sellers still achieving 99% of asking, it's a balanced market that rewards a well-prepared offer. The longer days on market can create negotiating room, especially on homes that have been listed a while.
What are the HOA fees and property taxes like?+
The median HOA runs about $147 per month, which covers the gated community's shared amenities and upkeep. Median property taxes come in around $4,964 per year. Always confirm the exact HOA and any CDD assessment on a specific home, since newer sections can carry different costs.
What schools serve Providence?+
The most commonly assigned schools are Loughman Oaks Elementary School, Shelley S. Boone Middle School, and Ridge Community High School. School zoning in Polk County can change by address and year, so verify the assignment for any specific home with the district before you buy.
What's the commute like from Providence?+
Walt Disney World is about 36 minutes away, and Orlando International Airport (MCO) is roughly 48 minutes. Universal Orlando is about 51 minutes and Downtown Orlando around 54 minutes, so Providence works well for park access and manageable airport runs. It's best suited to drivers rather than anyone relying on transit.
Is there new construction in Providence?+
Yes — 21 of the 73 active listings are new construction, so you can choose a brand-new home within the gated community. New builds here tend to sit at the larger end of the floor-plan range, which fits the 2,561-square-foot median. Factor in any CDD assessments and confirm builder timelines before committing.
