Why Horizon West
Horizon West is a 38-square-mile master plan organized into six villages, each with its own town center and parks. Hamlin is the anchor with the movie theater, waterfront restaurants on Hamlin Lake, and the Publix plaza. Lakeside Village and Bridgewater have the most amenity density. Everything is under 15 years old, and the whole thing sits on the 429 spine for fast Orlando access.
