Belle Vie is a gated neighborhood of French Country style, single family homes off Dowden Road, just east of the 417 expressway in the Lake Nona area. Beazer Homes built approximately 85 homes here on larger lots than most neighboring communities, and construction wrapped up in 2019, so only resales are available.
Residents have gated entry with a fountain entrance, a neighborhood park with an open field, and a walking trail through the woods. There is no pool or clubhouse, there is no CDD, and the Publix-anchored Shoppes at Storey Park sits diagonally across the street.
Belle Vie sits off Dowden Road, just east of the 417 expressway, in the 32832 ZIP code. Beazer Homes built the neighborhood in a French Country style and finished in 2019, so every home here now comes to market as a resale. Roughly 85 homes sit behind a single gated entry, on lots that run larger than most Lake Nona area neighborhoods.

Belle Vie has a gated entry with a fountain, a neighborhood park with an open field, and a walking trail through the woods — and no community pool, clubhouse or fitness center.
That is a short list by Lake Nona standards, and it is the trade-off at the centre of this neighborhood: the dues are not paying for a resort amenity center, and the land went into lots and homes instead. Many homesites back to conservation or a pond, which is the amenity most owners here actually bought.
The walking trail runs through the woods to what is currently an open lot owned by the Orange County school system. See how Belle Vie compares against the rest of the area on the Lake Nona area neighborhood amenities chart, and see the public options nearby on the Lake Nona parks hub.
Belle Vie is off Dowden Road just east of the 417 expressway, adjacent to Storey Park, with the Publix-anchored Shoppes at Storey Park diagonally across the street.
Sitting east of the 417 puts the on-ramp less than a mile from the gate, which is the practical argument for this location: it is a short hop to the Beachline, Orlando International Airport and the rest of the metro. The neighborhood is adjacent to Storey Park, built by Lennar.
Area schools include Sun Blaze Elementary, Innovation Middle School and Innovation High School, all in close proximity to Belle Vie. The open lot at the end of the neighborhood trail belongs to the school system, and a new elementary school near or adjacent to Belle Vie is expected. Attendance zones are set by Orange County Public Schools and change as new schools open, so confirm the zoning for a specific address rather than for the neighborhood — the Lake Nona schools hub covers the wider picture.
Shopping options include the Publix-anchored Shoppes at Storey Park, diagonally across the street from Belle Vie, and Lavina Marketplace, which has a mix of shops and restaurants. More is covered on the Lake Nona shopping hub. For medical care, an Orlando Health Emergency Room sits less than a mile west of the neighborhood entrance, in Randal Park; the Lake Nona health and wellness hub covers Medical City.
Beazer built four floor plans here, one and two story, from approximately 2,900 to over 5,200 square feet with four to six bedrooms.
Every home in Belle Vie was built by Beazer Homes, and many back to conservation, a pond, or both. New construction wrapped up in 2019, so the only way into the neighborhood now is a resale — and with roughly 85 homes, that means a small number of listings in any given year.
Four models were built here, each with multiple elevations:
Only one plan, The Willow, is a single story. If stairs are a constraint, that narrows an already small resale pool to one plan — worth knowing before you set a search up. The wider Lake Nona one-story homes search casts a broader net.
Belle Vie owners pay HOA dues and Orange County property taxes, with no CDD assessment added on top.
HOA and CDD. Belle Vie is a homeowners association community; dues vary by home and change over time, so ask for the current figure on a specific address rather than working from a number you read anywhere, including here.
Many Lake Nona neighborhoods carry a Community Development District assessment on top of HOA dues and property taxes — it appears on the annual tax bill and can run into the thousands. Belle Vie does not have one, which is a real cost difference when you compare it against a CDD neighborhood at the same price. How CDD fees work in Lake Nona explains what the line item is and how to look it up for any address before you make an offer.
The other cost driver here is size. The smallest plan starts near 2,900 square feet and the largest passes 5,200, so insurance, cooling, roof replacement and maintenance all sit at the upper end of what a Lake Nona area buyer typically budgets. A home in Belle Vie is not the cheap option even when the absence of a CDD makes the tax bill look favorable.
Belle Vie suits buyers who want a large home behind a gate on an above-average lot, and who would rather not pay dues toward amenities they will not use.
Thinking about Belle Vie? Resale inventory in an 85-home neighborhood moves quickly and quietly, and the differences between the four plans matter more than usual when there are so few to choose from.

No. Belle Vie does not have a CDD (Community Development District), so there is no CDD assessment added to the annual property tax bill. That is a cost advantage over many other Lake Nona neighborhoods, which do carry a CDD.
Yes. Belle Vie has a gated entry with a fountain at the entrance.
Approximately 85 homes, on larger lots than you typically see in most Lake Nona area neighborhoods. At that size, only a handful of homes change hands in a given year.

Homes range from 4 to 6 bedrooms, 1 story to 2 story, and approximately 2,900 square feet to over 5,200 square feet. Square footage varies by floor plan and elevation. There is no small home option here — the smallest plan starts near 2,900 square feet.
Four home models with multiple elevations: The Willow (1 story), The Sequoia II (2 story), The Washington (2 story), and The Wilson (2 story).

Yes. Belle Vie is a homeowners association community, and dues vary by home type and can change over time. Contact us for the latest HOA information for a specific home.
No. New construction wrapped up in 2019, and only resale homes are available within the neighborhood.
Belle Vie suits buyers who want a large home behind a gate on a bigger-than-average lot, and who would rather not pay dues toward a pool and clubhouse they will not use. It also suits buyers who want a grocery store within sight of the entrance. It is a poor fit for anyone who wants resort-style amenities inside the community, anyone who wants new construction, anyone shopping for a smaller or lower-priced home, and anyone who wants a walkable town-center lifestyle.
