Thursday, October 28th, 2010 at 1:44pm. 152 Views, 0 Comments.
Magnolia Plantation is a wonderful gated golf community located just off of Markham Woods Road in Lake Mary. It is definitely one of my favorite communities in the area. One of the best things about Magnolia Plantation is that it's relatively secluded. The community is located very conveniently for the rest of the area, but the neighborhood itself is set back from the road. As you drive through the gate you're treated to nature's beauty all the way home. And best of all, most of the newer homes in Magnolia Plantation have golf views!
Looking at the homes currently on the market in Magnolia Plantation, one of the best things that stands out is that only about one in five of the homes listed is a short sale. Because there are so few, the prices in this…
