About Windmill Point Neighborhood
Windmill Point is a family-friendly residential community located in the Pleasant Hill corridor of southwestern Kissimmee, within the 34746 zip code. Developed in multiple phases from 1993 through 2003 by Maronda Homes — one of Central Florida's most prolific production builders — the neighborhood encompasses several hundred single-family residences arranged along Windmill Point Boulevard and its interior cul-de-sacs. The community sits just south of the US 17-92 (John Young Parkway) and Pleasant Hill Road intersection, providing direct access to two of Osceola County's major commuter corridors.
Homes in Windmill Point are predominantly concrete block construction with stucco exteriors, designed in traditional Florida ranch and two-story floor plans. Living areas range from approximately 1,300 to 2,400 square feet, offering three to five bedrooms and two to three bathrooms. Many properties sit on oversized lots of roughly 0.25 to 0.30 acres, which is notably larger than what newer Kissimmee subdivisions typically offer. Homeowners enjoy spacious fenced backyards, two-car garages, and split-bedroom layouts that provide privacy for family living.
A defining characteristic of Windmill Point is its network of community ponds and conservation buffers that weave through the subdivision. Numerous homesites back up to scenic retention ponds, providing waterfront views, visiting wading birds, and a natural buffer between neighboring properties. Mature landscaping — including tropical fruit trees such as mango, avocado, and guava — gives the community a lush, established feel that newer developments cannot replicate. The neighborhood's location near the Valencia College Poinciana Campus also brings convenient higher-education access for residents pursuing degrees or professional certifications.
📊 Quick Facts
🏠 What Makes Windmill Point Special
Oversized Lots in an Affordable Price Range: With lots averaging a quarter-acre or more, Windmill Point offers significantly more yard space than most comparably priced communities built in the 2010s and 2020s in southern Kissimmee. This extra space means room for pools, workshops, gardens, and outdoor entertaining areas — a rare commodity at this price point.
No CDD Assessment: Unlike many newer Osceola County subdivisions that carry Community Development District fees of $1,500–$4,000+ annually on top of HOA dues, Windmill Point has no CDD. This translates into meaningful monthly savings that add up over the life of homeownership.
Pond and Conservation Views: The community's engineered stormwater ponds and natural conservation areas provide serene water views for many homesites, attracting herons, egrets, and other Florida wading birds. These views come without the premium price tag of lakefront living.

Windmill Point HOA & CDD Information
Windmill Point has a mandatory homeowners association that oversees community standards and common area maintenance. The HOA fee is structured as an annual assessment and is widely recognized as one of the more affordable HOA fees in the Pleasant Hill area — consistent with the community's no-frills, value-focused character.
Windmill Point does not have a Community Development District (CDD) fee. This is a significant financial advantage over many newer subdivisions in southern Kissimmee and the Poinciana corridor, where CDD assessments can add $1,500 to $4,000 or more annually to a homeowner's carrying costs. The absence of a CDD means lower total monthly expenses for Windmill Point residents. To learn more about how CDDs work, see our guide to understanding CDD fees.
