Background

A brief history

Storey Park broke ground in 2015 as a Lennar Homes development on 1,270 acres adjacent to the Lake Nona master plan in southeast Orlando. When it launched, it carried the distinction of being Florida's first large-scale solar-powered residential community — every home was designed with rooftop photovoltaic panels producing up to 60% of household electricity as a standard feature, not an upgrade. The community's name and identity were built around five pillars: Community, Nature, Health, Story, and Home, a brand framework Lennar used to distinguish Storey Park from the surrounding Lake Nona developments targeting higher price points.

Construction proceeded in phases through the late 2010s and into the early 2020s, expanding from the original Innovation Cottage series to include Innovation Manors, Innovation Estates, Executive homes, and the Hemingway Townhome collection — ultimately building out to approximately 2,700 residential units across roughly 20 distinct floor plans. The Storey Park Community Development District (CDD) was established to finance and manage the community's infrastructure, parks, and amenity facilities, with its own independent board and annual assessment structure tied to home series.

By the mid-2020s, Storey Park had matured into one of the most recognizable subdivisions in the Lake Nona submarket. Innovation Middle School opened on Storey Park Boulevard, placing a dedicated A-rated middle school within the community footprint — a feature few subdivisions of any size can claim. The community's technology-forward standard features, including Alexa integration, smart doorbells, and fiber-optic internet bundled through the HOA, positioned it as a reference point for what modern production homebuilding could deliver at a Lake Nona-adjacent price point.

The feel

What it's like to live here

Storey Park reads as a community that takes its own concept seriously. The solar panels are visible on virtually every roofline, giving the streets a coherent, intentional look that signals something different from generic Florida new construction. The landscaping is maintained through the CDD to a consistent standard, and the trail network connecting internal parks and preserves to the resort amenity core gives the community a walkable quality that is rare in Orange County subdivisions at this price point.

The resident mix skews toward young families and dual-income professionals working in the Lake Nona medical and tech corridor, with a meaningful population of remote workers who specifically sought out the fiber-optic connectivity. The community's social programming through the clubhouse and event room keeps the amenities active rather than decorative. Storey Park feels less like a place people moved to because it was affordable and more like a place people chose because of what it offered — a distinction that tends to translate into genuine neighborhood pride and well-maintained properties.

The details

What to expect

Architecture & Homes

Storey Park homes were built by Lennar across five collections spanning roughly 1,615 to over 4,000 square feet. The Innovation Cottages are the entry-level single-family series, with 2–3 bedrooms and attached-garage floor plans on smaller lots. Innovation Manors and Estates scale up in square footage and lot size, while the Executive series represents the community's largest single-family product. The Hemingway Townhomes provide a two-story attached option at the lowest price points in the community. All homes were delivered with rooftop solar panels, smart doorbells, Alexa integration, and fiber-optic pre-wiring as standard — features that were genuine innovations when the community launched in 2015 and remain differentiators today. Exterior elevations are consistent with Florida new construction aesthetics: stucco facades, tile roofs, and two-car garages.

Amenities & Lifestyle

The community amenity core is centered on a resort-style clubhouse with a fitness center, a large pool featuring beach entry, lap lanes, and a hot tub, and a grille and restaurant. An event room serves private gatherings and community programming. Outdoor amenities include a tennis court, a playground, and open field areas. The 1,270-acre master plan includes over 536 acres of trails, recreation corridors, and natural preserves woven through the residential sections, giving residents genuine access to green space without leaving the community. The HOA fee includes cable TV, high-speed fiber-optic internet, and landline phone service — making the monthly all-in cost more predictable than communities where utilities are entirely separate.

Schools

Storey Park is zoned to Sun Blaze Elementary School, Innovation Middle School (located directly on Storey Park Boulevard within the community), and Lake Nona High School. All three are Orange County Public Schools and carry A ratings. Innovation Middle School's location inside the community boundary means middle-schoolers can walk or bike to school — a significant practical benefit for families. Lake Nona High School offers dual enrollment partnerships with the University of Central Florida, Valencia College, and Seminole State College, allowing students to earn college credit before graduation. The school quality is one of the primary drivers of buyer demand in Storey Park and the broader Lake Nona submarket.

Location & Access

Storey Park sits within the 32832 zip code in southeast Orange County, adjacent to the Lake Nona Medical City corridor. SR-417 (the Central Florida GreeneWay) provides direct access to Orlando International Airport in roughly 15 minutes and to the SR-528 connector heading east toward the Space Coast or west toward Interstate 4. The community is approximately 20 minutes from downtown Orlando via the GreeneWay and roughly 30 minutes from Walt Disney World. Lake Nona Medical City — home to Nemours Children's Hospital, UF Health, the VA Medical Center, and USTA — is within a 5-minute drive, making Storey Park a primary address for healthcare and life sciences professionals working in that corridor. Grocery, dining, and retail are available at the nearby Tavistock Town Center.

Market Commentary

What the market is doing

I think Storey Park represents one of the better value propositions in the Lake Nona submarket right now. You're getting a Lennar-built home with solar panels, smart-home features, and fiber internet baked in at a median price around $525,000 — which is below what you'd pay for a comparable-size home in core Laureate Park. The HOA at roughly $270/month is higher than some communities, but when you factor in that it includes cable TV, internet, and phone service, the net cost to most households is often a wash or better than paying those utilities separately. The CDD adds a layer that buyers from out of state sometimes stumble on, but it's well within the range for master-planned communities in Central Florida. If you're targeting the Lake Nona market and need to stretch your dollars without giving up the lifestyle, Storey Park consistently earns a second look.
