About Town Center Condos Neighborhood
Town Center Condos is the residential layer of Celebration's downtown — a collection of condominium units housed in the mixed-use buildings that line Market Street, Front Street, and the streets fanning out from Lake Rianhard. Built as part of Celebration's original master plan in the late 1990s and early 2000s, these residences sit directly above the boutiques, restaurants, and offices that make up the Town Center commercial district.
The architecture follows the design philosophy laid out by Celebration's master planners and their roster of nationally recognized architects: pastel facades, deep porches, balconies overlooking the lake or the streetscape, and detailing drawn from coastal Florida and Charleston-style traditions. Most units offer one or two bedrooms, with floor plans ranging from compact pied-à-terre layouts to larger residences with lake or street views. Building entries are typically on side streets or interior corridors rather than the main retail frontage.
The lifestyle here is genuinely different from the rest of Celebration. Residents walk downstairs for morning coffee, walk a block to the Sunday Farmers Market on Market Street, and walk home from dinner at the Columbia Restaurant or one of the lakeside spots without ever starting a car. The trade-off is also real: street-level activity, weekend events, and seasonal programming like Now Snowing mean Town Center Condos residents live with the energy of Celebration's downtown on their doorstep year-round.

How Town Center Condos Compares
Among Celebration's condo options, Town Center Condos is the most centrally located — placing residents inside the downtown core rather than within walking distance of it. The trade-offs versus other Celebration condo communities are real and worth understanding before buying.
| Feature | Town Center Condos | Water Street Condos | Carlyle Residences |
|---|---|---|---|
| Location | In Town Center, above retail | On Lake Rianhard waterfront | North Village, near golf |
| Walk to Market Street | 0 minutes (in it) | 1–2 minutes | 10–15 minutes |
| Building Type | Mixed-use (retail below) | Lakefront residential | Upscale residential |
| Year Built | Late 1990s–early 2000s | Late 1990s–early 2000s | Mid-2000s |
| Best For | Downtown lifestyle, lock-and-leave | Lakefront views, quieter setting | Premium finishes, golf proximity |
💡 Value Proposition: Town Center Condos is the only Celebration address where you can live above the action. If walkable downtown living is the priority, no other Celebration neighborhood comes closer. If lake views or quieter surroundings matter more, Water Street or Carlyle may be a better fit.

Town Center Condos HOA & CDD Information
Town Center Condos involves a layered fee structure that buyers should understand before making an offer. Each individual building has its own condominium association responsible for the building's exterior, common areas, building insurance, and shared utilities. On top of that, every property within Celebration is part of the community-wide Celebration Residential Owners Association, which maintains the trail system, shared parks, and overall community standards.
Celebration is also served by a Community Development District (CDD), which finances and maintains community-wide infrastructure. CDD assessments appear on the annual property tax bill rather than as a monthly fee. Buyers should verify both current CDD status and any special assessments through Osceola County tax records before closing.
💰 HOA Fees & Management Contact
HOA fees and management company information often change. Please contact us and we will be happy to provide you with the current condo association fee for the specific building, the Celebration master association fee, payment schedules, and direct contact information for both management companies. We can also check for you to see if there are any current or upcoming special assessments — particularly important for Town Center buildings, which include retail and commercial elements.
📋 What HOA Fees Typically Cover
- Building exterior maintenance and reserves
- Building insurance (shared/common elements)
- Roof, elevator, and common-area utilities
- Trash, pest control, and exterior pest management
- Master Celebration community trails and shared open space
- Lake Rianhard maintenance and downtown landscape upkeep
- Community programming and event infrastructure
- Reserve contributions for major capital expenses
Note: Specific coverage varies by building. Always request the current condo documents and budget before purchase.
