Golf, lakeside living and amenities form the core of Bella Collina
Life at Bella Collina centers around golf and Central Florida’s lakes. This 1,900-acre gated community west of Orlando is situated on Lake Apopka, one of the largest in the state. The community broke ground in 2004 and features a mix of condos, smaller properties, custom-built estates and those that back onto the lake. Some homes have large lots and private docks for fishing and boating. Residences that back onto the smaller Lake Siena are closer together but also have private docks. Properties can also face the community’s golf course, designed by PGA legend Sir Nick Faldo. The locale offers residents numerous amenities and has quick access to local attractions and schools. “It's kind of like Tuscany in Florida,” says Nathan Alexander, a Realtor with Keller Williams Classic Realty. “It's got hills, so it's a different feel than most of Florida.”
Higher-priced homes and condos in an HOA-controlled community
According to Alexander, Homes by the golf course can range from $900,000 to $2.5 million, while those on the lakes can run between $2 million and $10 million. Condo units cost between $375,000 and $500,000. Styles include Mediterranean Revivals, New Traditional and Postmodern. Alexander notes that HOA fees are due quarterly and monthly, and the association provides residents with cable, internet, trash and maintenance of the common areas.
Bella Collina has several gated entrances and a CAP Index Crime Score of 2 out of 10, lower than the national average of 4 out of 10. Flood Maps from the Federal Emergency Management Agency show a slight flooding risk from the lakes.
Bella Collina’s golf course and amenities
Bella Collina’s golf course, designed by Masters champion Sir Nick Faldo, has a 7,700-yard layout and an academy but requires a membership. The community’s club also has a spa, pool, sports courts and event spaces. The Clermont National Golf Course is nearby and features a 6,900-yard par 71 layout and a practice area.
