Magnolia Plantation sits on the wooded west side of Lake Mary, a gated community of large custom homes on generous lots along the Markham Woods corridor. Homes here run big — the median floor plan is around 2,844 square feet — and pools are the norm rather than the exception. Kids feed into Heathrow Elementary, Markham Woods Middle, and Seminole High, and downtown Orlando is roughly a 30-minute drive.
For buyers, this is a tight, high-end market that moves fast. Only 4 homes are active right now, with a median list price of $955,000 and everything trading around $328 per square foot. Over the past year 17 homes sold at a median of $979,000, and with a median 4.5 days on market and sellers netting 98% of asking, you need to be ready to act. If Magnolia Plantation is stretched, comparable gated options like Grande Oaks At Heathrow and Timacuan are worth a look.
