Bentley Park Homes for Sale

About Bentley Park Neighborhood

Bentley Park stands in a category of its own within Dr. Phillips — a 24-hour guard-gated sanctuary comprising just 17 estate homesites situated at the end of South Bay Drive, off South Apopka Vineland Road. The community is tucked inside the prestigious Bay Hill area, directly adjacent to Lake Tibet Butler and its connection to the Butler Chain of Lakes, giving residents views of one of Central Florida's most sought-after waterways without sacrificing the privacy and security that defines this rare address.

Homes in Bentley Park were developed primarily between 1990 and 1996, with a small number of lots built or renovated later. The community is distinguished by its brick-paved streets, generous lot sizes ranging from approximately half an acre to more than two acres, and an extraordinary variety of custom architectural styles — from Spanish/Mediterranean and Traditional to Contemporary and French-inspired estate designs. Living areas typically span 4,500 to over 16,000 square feet, making Bentley Park home to some of the largest private residences in Orange County. The community gained national attention in 2024 when the famed "Bentley Hall" at 9200 Bentley Park Circle — a 20,690-square-foot estate on a 2-acre lot — sold for $11,800,000, one of the highest non-lakefront residential sale prices in Central Florida history.

Beyond the gates, residents enjoy immediate proximity to the Bay Hill Club & Lodge, the legendary golf course that hosts the PGA Tour's Arnold Palmer Invitational each March. The Dr. P. Phillips YMCA Family Center, Restaurant Row on Sand Lake Road, and top-rated Orange County public schools round out the lifestyle package — all within minutes of this secluded retreat.

Bentley Park Location & Connections

Bentley Park is positioned in the southern reach of Dr. Phillips, accessed via South Bay Drive off South Apopka Vineland Road (SR 435). The community sits between the Bay Hill community to its north and the open shores of Lake Tibet Butler to its west — one of the eleven lakes comprising the Butler Chain of Lakes. Sand Lake Road and its celebrated Restaurant Row are just minutes north, while the Lake Buena Vista resort corridor and Walt Disney World lie just a short drive south via Apopka Vineland Road.

The community's position at the western edge of the Bay Hill area gives residents quick access to South Apopka Vineland Road as their primary north-south artery, connecting seamlessly to Sand Lake Road for dining and shopping, and onward to Interstate 4 and the Florida Turnpike for regional commuting. The Central Florida Parkway (SR 536) provides a scenic and convenient connector south toward Disney Springs and Lake Buena Vista.

Bentley Park Amenities & Lifestyle

Life in Bentley Park is defined by a rare combination of absolute privacy and world-class convenience. Residents step outside their gates and find themselves moments from Arnold Palmer's legendary Bay Hill Club & Lodge, Orlando's finest dining on Restaurant Row, and the Walt Disney World Resort. It is the kind of address where estate-scale living coexists effortlessly with the vibrant energy of one of America's top metro areas.

The Bay Hill community surrounding Bentley Park contributes an atmosphere of prestige and tradition — mature oaks, scenic water views, and the rhythm of a neighborhood shaped by golf, boating, and outdoor recreation. The Dr. P. Phillips YMCA Family Center on Dr. Phillips Boulevard provides state-of-the-art fitness, aquatics, and youth programming for families within the community.

How Bentley Park Compares

Bentley Park occupies a unique tier in the Dr. Phillips luxury market: it offers a handful of ultra-custom estate lots in a 24-hour guard-gated setting adjacent to the Butler Chain of Lakes, without the CDD fees that burden many newer master-planned communities. When compared to other prestigious Dr. Phillips neighborhoods, Bentley Park consistently delivers the most dramatic lot sizes and home footprints at this address.

Bentley Park HOA & CDD Information

Bentley Park is governed by a mandatory Homeowners Association that oversees the community's guard-gated security operation, private brick-paved streets, common area maintenance, community recreation facilities (playground and tennis courts), and the overall aesthetic standards that preserve property values in this ultra-exclusive enclave. The HOA's role in maintaining Bentley Park's security infrastructure — including its 24-hour guard service — is a central feature of the community's appeal.

Bentley Park does not carry a Community Development District (CDD) fee — a meaningful financial advantage that distinguishes it from many newer Dr. Phillips and Horizon West communities where annual CDD assessments can add several thousand dollars to homeownership costs. This absence of CDD fees, combined with the community's exceptional security and exclusivity, represents outstanding value at the luxury estate level.
