The Longwood Story

Seminole County Privacy with Top-Rated Schools

Longwood delivers something increasingly rare in Central Florida: large lots, mature oaks, and top-rated Seminole County schools without the premium of a Winter Park address. Alaqua Lakes and Wingfield North are gated golf communities with estate homes on half-acre-plus lots. The Markham Woods Road corridor offers equestrian-friendly acreage properties. For families, Longwood's school zoning consistently outranks Orange County equivalents.

Luxury Homes for Sale in Longwood: What the Market Offers

Luxury homes for sale in Longwood follow the Markham Woods corridor: Alaqua's private-course estates, Alaqua Lakes' Legacy Club addresses, and Wingfield North's gated acre-plus lots. The June 2026 median sold price was $543,999 at about $265 per square foot, with corridor estates typically trading from $900,000 to $2.5 million -- exceptional land and square footage per dollar for the Seminole County school zones attached. Longwood luxury real estate suits buyers who measure value in acreage, oaks, and A-rated zoning rather than walkable retail.
