Laureate Park Home, Lake Nona

A Family Home with Income in Laureate Park

This 2021 home sits in Laureate Park, one of the best-known neighbourhoods in Lake Nona, Orlando. It brings together a 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom main residence of about 3,111 sq ft and a private 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment of about 808 sq ft above the 3-car garage, for 6 bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms in all.

The apartment has its own entrance and is fully furnished. It is currently rented for $2,050 a month on a month-to-month basis, so the home earns from day one. Under that arrangement the tenant can be given 15 days' notice if the new owner would rather use the apartment for family, guests or an office.

In the main house, the ground floor has 2 bedrooms and a full bathroom. Upstairs are 3 more bedrooms, an oversized loft, the laundry room and another full bathroom. The primary suite has a freestanding soaking tub, a frameless glass shower and two walk-in closets.

Wood floors run through most of the living areas. The gourmet kitchen has quartz counters, upgraded cabinetry and appliances and a floor-to-ceiling tile backsplash, and the house has custom built-ins, sliding glass pocket doors and designer finishes throughout.

Outside, a covered lanai with a built-in summer kitchen looks onto a yard with room to play, and an in-ground pet containment system is already wired around the property. The home faces an open green park, with the Merit Park courtyard steps away and Amanda Linear Park and the Laureate Park nature trailhead within walking distance.

Both the house and the apartment run on a leased 35-panel solar system installed in January 2024. The home is zoned for Laureate Park Elementary, Lake Nona Middle and Lake Nona High, which the seller describes as A-rated schools.

Laureate Park residents share resort-style pools, a fitness centre, playgrounds, a clubhouse, tennis courts, walking trails and a community garden. Lake Nona Town Center, Orlando International Airport and the UCF College of Medicine are about ten minutes away, with Walt Disney World about 20 minutes and Downtown Orlando about 25 minutes, according to the seller. The medical city nearby includes UCF Lake Nona Hospital, Nemours Children's Hospital and the Orlando VA Medical Center.
