Search Lake Willis on the map

Lake Willis sits in the heart of Orlando's tourism corridor, close enough to the action to make a run to Universal Orlando in about 16 minutes yet quiet enough to feel residential. This is a small, water-oriented pocket where the current listings are waterfront homes, and neighbors here trade proximity to Orlando homes for sale across the region for lakeside calm. Nearby communities like Metro West and Hunters Creek round out the area's mix of established and newer neighborhoods.

For a buyer today, this is a thin, high-end market: just two active listings with a median list price of $1,132,605, and homes here take their time — a median of 317.5 days on market. That patience cuts both ways, since sellers over the last year netted about 91% of asking on average. If you're weighing this against Laureate Park or other Orlando options, expect to move deliberately and negotiate.

Lake Willis is a community in Orlando, Florida.

Lake Willis FAQs

Is Lake Willis a good place to live?+

It works well for buyers who want waterfront living with fast access to Orlando's attractions — Universal is about 16 minutes away, downtown roughly 24. Assigned schools include Lake Buena Vista High School, Freedom Middle, and Sunshine Elementary. The trade-off is a very small inventory, so options are limited at any given time.

Is Lake Willis expensive?+

Yes, it sits at the higher end of the Orlando market, with a median list price of $1,132,605 and current listings ranging from $685,210 to $1,580,000. At an average of $692 per square foot, it prices above many nearby options like Hunters Creek. Budget accordingly if a waterfront home here is the goal.

What do homes cost in Lake Willis?+

Active listings run from $685,210 to $1,580,000 with a median list price of $1,132,605, and the median home size is about 1,735 square feet. Over the last 12 months, the two homes that sold closed at a median of $894,995. Expect premium pricing tied to the waterfront positioning.

How is the market in Lake Willis?+

It's a slow, thin market — just two active listings and two sales in the past year, with a median 317.5 days on market. Sellers averaged 91% of their asking price, which signals room to negotiate. Buyers should be prepared to wait for the right property and move decisively when it appears.

What about HOA fees and property taxes?+

The median HOA here runs about $369 per month, and median property taxes come in around $10,283 per year. Both reflect the neighborhood's higher-end, waterfront profile, so factor them into your monthly carrying costs.
