The luxury tier: Winter Garden against Windermere and Winter Park
At $1 million and up, the three ZIP codes close a comparable number of homes in a year. Above $3 million they are different markets. In 34787 that tier was five closings in twelve months, and two of them were at Briley Farm.
| Measure | Winter Garden 34787 | Windermere 34786 | Winter Park 32789 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Listed at $1M or more | 103 | 128 | 85 |

Source: West Orange Times & Observer weekly sales columns for Horizon West (October 6, 13 and 20), Winter Garden (October 9, 16 and 23) and Windermere (October 8, 15 and 22), 2026. Tallied by the Burks team on October 26, 2026, with a home listed in two weeks counted once. The areas are the newspaper's, not ZIP codes. Three weeks is a small sample. These are public sales shown as context, not our record.
What it shows. In those three weeks, every reported home built in 2025 or 2026 sold for less than $1.3 million, in all three areas. Above that line, new construction here means a custom home on an estate homesite, which is what Briley Farm is.

Choosing an area
Winter Garden, Horizon West or Windermere?
The three sit next to each other on a map. They differ in what you are buying.
| Winter Garden and Oakland | Horizon West | Windermere | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What it is | A city with a historic downtown on the West Orange Trail, and the Town of Oakland next door | Planned villages in unincorporated southwest Orange County, with Winter Garden, Windermere or Orlando mailing addresses | A town and the lakes around it, including the Butler Chain and gated club communities |
| What you buy | Established neighborhoods, newer production communities, and custom homes on estate homesites at Briley Farm | Production homes, new and resale. 28 of the 71 sales in our three week tally were 2025 or 2026 builds | Established lakefront, club and estate homes. None of the 15 sales in our three week tally was a 2025 or 2026 build |
| Median sale price, three months through August 2026 | $606,000 (34787) | Spread across 34787, 34786 and Orlando ZIP codes | $885,000 (34786) |
| Closed at $3M or more, 12 months to August 2, 2026 | 5 in 34787, two at Briley Farm | Counted in 34787 and 34786 | 56 in 34786 |
Median prices: Redfin ZIP code pages, read October 11, 2026. $3M closings: Stellar MLS, August 2, 2026. Horizon West's status and mailing addresses: Orange County and the weekly sales columns above.
If you want a new home under about $1.3 million, Horizon West has the most choice: 28 of the 34 new homes in our three week tally sold there. If you want new and custom above that, supply is small, and Briley Farm accounts for a real share of it. If you want a lake or a club and a finished home, start in Windermere, which had 56 closings at $3 million or more in the year to August 2, 2026.
Buying new
Buying new construction with your own agent.
In a production community, the model home sales team works for the builder. Your own agent works for you on the builder's contract, the deposit, upgrades, change orders and inspections.
- Register your agent at the first visit. Many builders require the buyer's agent to be present or registered at the first visit to pay a commission. Rules vary by builder.
- Get compensation in writing. Since August 17, 2024, buyers sign a written agreement with their agent before touring. Many builders still offer to pay a buyer's agent. Get the builder's offer in writing before you sign the purchase contract.
- Inspect in stages. Hire your own inspector for a pre drywall walk and a final walk. The walls only open once.
Who Matthew represents. At Briley Farm, Matthew represents builders' spec homes, so on those homes he works for the seller. On production homes in Horizon West and Winter Garden, he represents buyers. We say which, every time. The full checklist is on buying new construction with your own agent.
The Oakland edge
