Suburban, convenient and affordable
Holden Heights Includes several Central Florida neighborhoods surrounding Lake Holden. The Holden Heights neighborhood sits at the community's north end, and its houses are smaller than those farther south in the Lake Holden area, closer to the water. However, throughout the area, residents enjoy big yards full of plant life and more affordable housing prices compared to nearby areas with almost no HOAs and a central location in the city. "It's very convenient if you want easy access to all the main areas of Orlando,” says Marcela Lessa Fischer, a Realtor with Pristine International Realty who sells throughout Central Florida.
