Why Alaqua Lakes Sits at the Top of Central Florida Luxury
Alaqua Lakes isn't just a gated community — it's one of the most private and prestigious addresses in all of Central Florida. Built around a Tom Fazio-designed championship golf course, with custom estate homes on large lots, lakefront positions, and a level of exclusivity that very few communities in Florida can match.
Inventory is extremely limited. When a home in Alaqua Lakes comes to market — especially golf course or lakefront positions — it draws immediate attention from buyers across the Southeast, the Northeast, and internationally. Well-positioned homes do not sit.
The community is located directly off Markham Woods Road in the Lake Mary / Longwood corridor — one of the most desirable addresses in Seminole County, with top-rated schools, corporate corridor access, and the quiet exclusivity that ultra-high-net-worth buyers demand.
What Separates Alaqua Lakes From Every Other Community in the Corridor
There are dozens of gated communities in Lake Mary and Longwood. Only one has a Tom Fazio golf course, custom-only estate builds, and the level of privacy that Alaqua Lakes delivers.
Tom Fazio Championship Golf
Designed by one of the world's most celebrated golf course architects, the Alaqua Lakes course is a private, members-only experience. Golf course frontage here commands among the highest per-square-foot premiums in Central Florida.
Custom Estate Builds Only
No production homes. Every home in Alaqua Lakes is custom-built on a large lot. Architectural variety, high-end finishes, and individual design are defining characteristics of the community.
Lakefront & Water Positions
Several lots in Alaqua Lakes sit on the lake — providing a combined golf and water view that is extraordinarily rare in Central Florida. These are the most coveted and least available positions in the entire community.
Guard-Gated Privacy
Full-time guard-gated security. A private, quiet address that draws buyers who place a premium on discretion and seclusion — while still being minutes from I-4, the corporate corridor, and world-class amenities.
Top-Rated Seminole County Schools
Zoned for Seminole County Public Schools — consistently top 3 in Florida. Lake Mary High School, with its 97% graduation rate, serves this community and drives consistent family buyer demand.
Markham Woods Corridor Location
Alaqua Lakes sits on one of the most prestigious corridors in Central Florida. Neighboring properties include Alaqua Country Club and some of the area's finest estates. The address itself carries weight.
