Developing suburb near sprawling Lake Marion wildlife
“An everchanging and developing area,” is the way Brandon Gengler, Realtor with KW Smart Realty describes Lake Marion Village in Poinciana, Florida. “Over the last 5 years, especially post-COVID, there’s been a lot of construction and development in the area. People in Orlando just started moving outward, so developers saw opportunities to build.” While the neighborhood remains fairly remote, surrounded by protected wildlife swamps and lakes, residents are within driving distance of Poinciana community events and shopping in nearby cities.
Old and new Spanish Revival homes in Lake Marion Village
Late 20th-century ranch-style and Spanish-revival homes with stucco exteriors and rid tile roofs average around $290,000. Two story Spanish-revival homes with arched entryways and fenced-in backyards built in the early 2000s typically range between $260,000 and $420,000, while New Traditional style properties built in the 2020s feature up to five bedrooms and average $375,000. Homes in the neighborhood sit closer together on large, grassy lots in secluded cul-de-sacs with small groves of oak and palm trees planted between properties. The Association of Poinciana Villages (APV), established in 1972, is the governing homeowner’s association; many subdivisions within Lake Marion Village fall under their jurisdiction, and residents can expect to pay around $300 in annual HOA fees.
