About Regal Pointe Neighborhood
Regal Pointe sits in the older, original core of Winter Garden rather than in the post-2010 master-planned development belt south of SR 429. The single entrance from 9th Street leads onto Regal Downs Circle, the loop street that organizes the entire community. Homes are concrete-block stucco construction with attached two-car garages, generally one or two stories, on city-style lots typically ranging from roughly 5,500 to 7,200 square feet (with a small number of slightly larger pond-view sites). Many of the lots back to small ponds or have water views, a recurring feature in the original Maronda Homes plats here.
Floor plans through Phase 1 (recorded at plat book 43/129) skew to the family-sized middle of the market — three- and four-bedroom layouts ranging from roughly 1,400 to 2,300+ square feet, with the larger "Fairfax" model among the more sought-after configurations. The neighborhood was developed as a PUD with deed restrictions and a mandatory homeowners association.
Regal Pointe's character is straightforward turn-of-the-millennium suburban — established lawns, mature trees on the older lots, and a working-family ownership pattern that has remained more affordable than the gated communities on the SR 429 corridor. Its position just north of SR 50 and a short drive from the brick-lined main street of Plant Street is the practical selling point — buyers looking for downtown access without downtown prices tend to surface this community first.

Regal Pointe Location & Connections
Regal Pointe sits in the northern core of Winter Garden, accessed from 9th Street between East Palmetto Street and SR 50 / West Colonial Drive. The community is bordered to the north by older Downtown Winter Garden residential streets and to the south by the Winter Garden Plaza shopping center along Highway 50, with commercial frontage running east and undeveloped commercial-zoned parcels to the west. The single-loop layout off 9th Street means traffic stays inside the neighborhood — there are no cut-through routes.
This is one of the most highway-accessible spots in the city. SR 50 is at the southern boundary, the SR 429 Daniel Webster Western Beltway is a short drive west, and the Florida Turnpike sits roughly 1.5 miles east at the Hwy 50 interchange — giving residents quick reach to Downtown Orlando, Disney-area employment, the I-4 corridor via SR 408, and Plant Street in a few minutes.

Regal Pointe HOA & CDD Information
Regal Pointe operates under a mandatory homeowners association that maintains the community's shared amenities, common areas, and architectural standards. The community has historically carried one of the lower HOA fees in the 34787 market, consistent with its straightforward amenity package (playground, picnic area, volleyball, common landscaping) — but figures change with the association's budget cycle and should be verified rather than estimated.
Regal Pointe is not subject to a Community Development District assessment. This is confirmed in the property tax records for the community and is a meaningful cost difference compared to newer Winter Garden communities built within CDD-financed master plans.
