“Esplanade at McKinnon Groves is Taylor Morrison's resort-lifestyle master plan on 358 acres in the Wellness Way corridor, bringing 658 one-story homes — attached villas from the $380s and single-family detached from the $430s — with a full resort amenity campus to southwest Orange County near Winter Garden.”

Taylor Morrison paid $59.6 million for the McKinnon Groves tract in late 2024, staking out the biggest private-amenity bet on the Wellness Way corridor to date. The Esplanade brand debuted in Florida as 55+ at Highland Ranch in Clermont, but Taylor Morrison's own Orlando Division President confirmed McKinnon Groves is all-ages — anyone who wants a resort lifestyle qualifies. The tradeoff: you are buying in a four-phase buildout that starts at Hartwood Marsh Road and moves south, so early buyers face years of construction activity around them. Phase 1 delivers 266 homes; the full 658 will not be complete for several years.

What's included

Taylor Morrison does not bundle upgrades the way Lennar's Everything's Included program does. Buyers at Esplanade communities select structural options and finishes through Taylor Morrison's Design Studio process, where upgrades are a la carte. The resort amenity package — The Venue fitness center, spa treatment room, resort pool with cabanas, Bahama Bar, sports courts, bark parks, and concierge services — is funded through the community HOA at approximately $429/month.

Location

Model Home: 17705 Sedona St, Winter Garden, FL 34787, Winter Garden, FL 34787

The address is Winter Garden, but the site technically straddles the Lake-Orange County line near the Winter Garden/Clermont border. Hartwood Marsh Road is the northern entry; the community extends south toward Phil C. Peters Road. SR-429 Exit 19 at Stoneybrook West Parkway is the fastest commuter route to I-4.
