Laurel Glen is a newer single-family home community built by Ryan Homes in Haines City, Florida, in Polk County, with a model home at 1105 Lexington Lane, ZIP 33844 (Ryan Homes community page, 2026). It sits off US-27 in the rapidly growing corridor north of the Heart of Florida, with the builder positioning it as affordable new construction with easy access toward Orlando.
The builder describes one and two story homes ranging from roughly 1,452 to 2,240 square feet, with professionally curated design palettes, granite kitchen countertops, quartz bathroom countertops, brick paver driveways and walkways, and all appliances included down to the washer and dryer (Ryan Homes community page, 2026). Listing records show homes built in 2026, confirming this is an active new-construction community rather than an established resale neighborhood; confirm the exact plan, size, and homesite for any specific home.
Because this is a builder community in active sales, the money is made or lost on the plan, the homesite, and the incentive, not on a townwide average. The drivers are the floor plan you choose, any homesite premium for a larger or no-rear-neighbor lot, the builder incentive and financing offer at the moment of contract, and the resale outlook once the community is built out and the surrounding new supply competes for the next buyer.
The pitch is verifiable value: the builder advertises no CDD and a relatively low HOA with high-speed fiber internet included, a playground and dog park, and a location off US-27 about three miles from Lake Eva Park, minutes from Posner Park shopping and dining, and under forty-five minutes to the major Orlando-area attractions (Ryan Homes community page, 2026). The work is the diligence: confirm the current HOA dues, what the fee covers, the homesite, and the resale comps in the surrounding Haines City new-build belt before you buy.
