Temples Crossing is a current townhome community by Starlight Homes in Davenport, Polk County, centered on Temples Crossing Boulevard near US 17 to 92 and US 27 (Starlight Homes and new construction listing guides, 2026). Listings describe attached homes on the Cosmos plan at roughly 1,422 square feet with three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and a one car garage; confirm the exact plan, size, and specification for any specific unit.
The builder is Starlight Homes, the entry-level brand created by Ashton Woods for first-time and value-focused buyers, with a streamlined process and included appliances marketed as standard (Starlight Homes, 2026). The community is selling new, so the read is the floor plan, the included specification, the build quality, and any builder warranty, which you should confirm directly with the builder for the exact home.
Because this is an attached townhome community, the HOA carries more weight than on a single-family lot. The Temples Crossing townhome association was recorded with the State of Florida in late 2022 (Florida corporate and HOA records, 2026), and the monthly dues reported by listing guides have run in a roughly mid one hundreds range; the dues fund shared maintenance and the amenities, so read the current budget, the reserves, and the leasing rules from the association documents.
The pitch is an affordable new build in the Davenport tourism corridor: the community markets proximity to Orlando area attractions, and US 27 and US 17 to 92 feed the I-4 connection between Tampa and Orlando. The work is the diligence: read the HOA budget and leasing policy, confirm the standard specification and warranty, and verify the school assignment and any short term rental rules before you buy.
