Hartford Terrace is a master-planned community by Pulte Homes in Davenport, Polk County, located along Forest Lake Drive near Holly Hill Road and US-27, with quick access to I-4 (Pulte community materials and multiple new-home listing portals, 2026). The community offers a mix of single-family homes and townhomes, with builder and portal materials describing roughly three to five bedroom plans and a broad size range; confirm the exact plan, bedroom count, and square footage for any specific home.
Listing and builder sources describe Hartford Terrace as an active new-construction community delivering in the mid-2020s, so most homes are recent builds carrying current construction standards, smart-home features, and builder warranty coverage. Because plans, elevations, and lot premiums vary widely, the home and the lot, not a community average, set value here; read the specific plan and homesite for any home you consider.
Because this is a master-planned community with both an HOA and a Community Development District, the money is made or lost on the all-in carrying cost, not the base price. The drivers are the monthly HOA dues, the CDD assessment that appears on the annual property tax bill, the chosen floor plan and lot premium, and the depth of competing new-home supply along US-27, all of which should be read from the current district and association documents and a true comparison of nearby new communities.
The pitch is a new home with resort-style amenities and a convenient location: builder materials cite a community pool with cabana, a sports field, a playground, dog stations, walking trails, and high-speed internet and streaming service included through the HOA, with US-27 retail, I-4, the Orlando attractions, and Polk employment centers all within a manageable drive. The work is the diligence: read the HOA inclusions and the CDD line, pick the plan and lot, and cross-shop the corridor before you sign.
