Lake Mary and Sanford Subdivisions with Community Pool

by | Jun 17, 2009

When we first moved to Orlando in 2003 I was under the assumption that every community in the sunshine state would at least offer a community pool. Little did I know that less than half of all communities offer such a great amenity. Sure, most condo complexes and town home communities offer pools, but single family subdivisions rarely do.

So if you are looking in specific for a community with community pool, check out the following list for Lake Mary and Sanford, FL. I have written down all the subdivisions that have a community pool.

Refer to this list when you use our state of the art real estate listing search engine (just type in the community name in the top box of the search).

Lake Mary:

  • Colony Cove
  • Egrets Landing
  • Heathrow (Junior Olympic size but extra fees apply)
  • Highlands of Lake Mary
  • Huntington Pointe

Sanford:

  • Bakers Crossing
  • Buckingham Estates
  • Celery Key
  • Hidden Lake
  • Kays Landing
  • Lake Forest (Junior Olympic size, see picture above)
  • Mayfair Meadows
  • Oaks of Sanford
  • Sanora
  • Tall Trees

Community pools have several advantages, for example:

  • You won’t have to worry about cleaning and maintaining your own pool (if you pay someone to do it this will run you about $100/month)
  • Community pools are larger than your typical backyard pool could ever be so you will truly be able to swim laps.
  • It will be easier to meet your neighbors.
  • It’s a nice way to keep your kids entertained, especially during the long summer break.
  • For resale, even though HOA fees may be a bit higher, a community is often a plus in prospective buyers’ eyes (it is in yours, isn’t it?)

That doesn’t mean by any means that owning a home with pool is a disadvantage. I personally prefer a home with its own pool but I know that it is sometimes difficult to find such home and living in Florida you wouldn’t want to miss out on the (refreshing) benefits of having access to a pool, would you?
