Neighborhood in Kissimmee, Florida
Osceola County 33896
Rural fields and dense forests mingle with suburban tracts in Intercession City, a community just outside the city of Kissimmee. This community was initially named "Interocean City" due to its equidistance from the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico. The community became a suburban area in Kissimmee, with established rural homes and contemporary builds just down the road from schools, parks and commercial centers.
Newer suburban tracts blend with this community's older rural sprawls and manufactured home parks. The first homes in the area were built in the 1920s and 1930s and would continue to expand into the 1960s. Recent developments have introduced more contemporary home architecture to the area alongside the more established ranch-style houses and mobile homes. Newly built homes and townhouses feature pastel-colored exteriors, spacious floor plans, paved driveways with garages and ample green space. Area townhouses have similar amenities in more affordable options. Wetland forest and grassy fields intersect with expansive ranch-style houses and mobile homes, offering more natural surroundings. Most homes are under five minutes from commercial centers and freeways, and prices range from $100,000 for a home needing some T.L.C. to $300,000 for newer houses.
Public school students are served by the Osceola County School District, beginning their academic journeys at primary schools like Reedy Creek Elementary. This school has an overall C-plus rating on Niche and teaches from pre-kindergarten through fifth grade. Students move on to intermediate and secondary institutions such as Horizon Middle and Poinciana High School. Both schools have at least a C-plus overall Niche rating. Poinciana High gives its students a head start in their careers through specialized courses in culinary arts, construction and A/V technology.
Most locals are just a short drive from nearby golf courses and vast regional parks. Golf enthusiasts practice their backswing at Oaks National Golf Club, a championship 18-hole course with rolling fairways and sparkling ponds shaded by the club's signature 100-year-old oak trees. Most locals are six miles from Shingle Creek Regional Park, an oasis located at the Headwaters of the Florida Everglades and dubbed one of "America's Great Outdoors" by Former President Obama. Locals enjoy kayaking along stretches of the creek and walking the Shingle Creek Regional Trail. This multi-use walking path extends 32 miles from Kissimmee to Wekiva Springs State Park.
Major freeways like Old Tampa Highway and Route 17 put locals just under five miles away from stores and commercial centers. Grocery stores like Publix offer a range of fresh produce, pharmaceuticals and other household necessities. Home improvement retailers like Home Depot are the place to go for new tools, appliances, building materials and other home goods. Regional and local restaurants are also all along Old Tampa Highway and Route 17. Asahi Hibachi & Sushi has an extensive menu of different sashimi and sushi rolls in an artful and intimate dining room. El Primo is a franchise eatery along Route 17, offering a range of quick and easy Latin American dishes. Tasty desserts are available at Twistee Treat, an eclectic chain serving sweet treats from an ice cream cone-shaped stand.
Intercession City residents rely on thoroughfares like Old Tampa Highway and Route 17, which puts commuting workers only 15 miles away from Kissimmee and 26 miles from Orlando. Plus, SunRail provides easy commutes for locals to other Central Florida attractions.
