A New Chapter for One of Central Florida's Only Boating Communities
Bridgewalk has quietly become one of the most distinctive master-planned communities in the Lake Nona corridor — not for a golf course or a town center, but for something rarer in Central Florida new construction: real boating access, anchored by Ajay Lake and Springhead Lake, with canal access from Ajay Lake all the way to East Lake Tohopekaliga.
Springhead at Bridgewalk is Lennar's next chapter of that story — a new, coming-soon phase planned for the Orange County side of the community, just across Clapp Simms Duda Rd from two communities our clients already know well: Pulte's The Estates at Nona Sound and The Cove at Nona Sound. Filed site plans show 142 single-family homesites planned across 42.5 acres, a meaningful new addition to a master plan that will total 663 homes at full build-out between its Osceola and Orange County sides.
This one is still early. Lennar's own page for Springhead is an interest list, not a sales listing — no pricing, floor plans, or opening date have been made public yet. But given how quickly its Pulte-built neighbors across the street have sold, and how few genuine boating communities exist this close to Lake Nona, this is exactly the kind of coming-soon community worth getting ahead of.
A Boating Lifestyle Built Around Ajay Lake and Springhead Lake
What sets Bridgewalk apart from most Lake Nona-area communities is the water. Residents get a private boat launch with direct access to Springhead Pond, plus the broader Ajay Lake system, which connects by canal to East Lake Tohopekaliga — a rare amenity in a part of Orlando otherwise defined by resort-style pools and walking trails rather than actual boating.
For buyers who've been searching for a genuine lake-and-boat lifestyle without leaving the Lake Nona market, that's a meaningfully different pitch than anything currently for sale at the neighboring Pulte communities.
Homesite Plans: What's Been Filed So Far
According to site plans filed with the South Florida Water Management District, Springhead at Bridgewalk is planned as:
- 142 single-family detached homes on 42.5 acres
- 62 front-loaded and 80 rear-loaded homes, with a minimum lot width of 40 feet
- A proposed density of 3.37 homes per acre
Lennar has not yet released specific floor plans, elevations, or square footage ranges for this phase. For a sense of what Lennar typically builds in this immediate market, its existing, already-selling Bridgewalk phase in St. Cloud spans five collections — Trail Townhomes, Manor Alley II, Estate, Executive, and Executive II — ranging from roughly 1,650 to 3,630 square feet, currently priced from $387,990 to $656,990. That's context, not a promise of what Springhead itself will offer or cost.
Amenities: What Bridgewalk Residents Already Enjoy
While Springhead-specific amenity details haven't been released, the broader Bridgewalk community it's part of already offers:
- Clubhouse
- Fitness center
- Swimming pool with a separate lap pool
- Private boat launch and pond access
- Dog park
- Playground and tot lot
- Multiple pickleball courts
- Volleyball court
- BBQ and picnic areas
- Fully maintained lawns
Location: Minutes from Lake Nona, Bordering Split Oak Forest
Transportation
- Directly across Clapp Simms Duda Rd from The Estates at Nona Sound and The Cove at Nona Sound
- Roughly 5 miles to Lake Nona's Medical City
- Approximately 8 miles to Orlando International Airport (MCO)
Everyday Essentials
- Minutes from Lake Nona Town Center's dining, retail, and entertainment
- Close to the same Narcoossee Rd corridor serving the neighboring Nona Sound communities
Outdoor Lifestyle
- Borders Split Oak Forest, a 2,000+ acre conservation and wildlife preserve
- Anchored by real boating access on Ajay Lake and Springhead Lake — a genuinely different outdoor lifestyle than the trail-and-pool amenity package found at most nearby communities
Zoned Schools
- Not yet confirmed. Because Springhead sits on the Orange County side of Bridgewalk — unlike the existing Osceola County phase, which is zoned to Tohopekaliga High School — it will fall under Orange County Public Schools rather than Osceola County's district. We recommend confirming exact zoning through the OCPS Find My School Home locator once specific addresses are assigned; the neighboring Cove and Estates at Nona Sound communities have a similar zoning question still open (Luminary vs. Eagle Creek Elementary) worth tracking alongside this one.
Who Might Springhead at Bridgewalk Be Best For?
Boating enthusiasts who want lake access without leaving the Lake Nona market — genuinely rare among nearby new-construction options.
Buyers who like to get ahead of a community before pricing and homesite selection open, when early-phase pricing and lot choice are typically strongest.
Families cross-shopping The Estates and Cove at Nona Sound who want to see every option on this same stretch of Clapp Simms Duda Rd before deciding.

Our Perspective: Why We're Watching This One Early
We track every new phase filed near Lake Nona closely, and Springhead at Bridgewalk stands out for a simple reason: genuine boating access this close to Medical City is rare, and its two closest neighbors — The Estates at Nona Sound and The Cove at Nona Sound — have both sold through inventory quickly. If Springhead follows a similar pace once it opens, early buyers who get in during pre-sales typically see the best homesite selection and often the strongest introductory pricing.
That said, we want to be direct: almost nothing about pricing, floor plans, or an opening date is public yet. We'll be following this one closely and will update this post the moment Lennar releases real numbers — in the meantime, we're happy to add you to the interest list and reach out the moment sales open.
