Temples Crossing is a new residential community built by Starlight Homes in Davenport, in Polk County, near 205 Temple Lane off the US-27 and I-4 corridor (Starlight Homes community page, 2026; NewHomeSource community listing, 2026). Multiple new-home portals describe roughly 199 planned homes, making it a mid-size single-community subdivision rather than a sprawling master plan.
Starlight Homes is the entry-level brand of Ashton Woods and focuses on affordable, move-in ready homes for first-time buyers (Starlight Homes builder profile, 2026). Listing portals show the community built around one core floor plan, the Cosmos, a three bedroom, two bath layout near 1,422 square feet with a covered porch, a one-car garage, and an open kitchen, dining, and great room. Confirm the exact size, story count, and finishes for any specific home, since listings vary on whether plans read as one or two story.
Because this is a new-build community, the money is made or lost on the builder contract and the lot, not on an established address. The drivers are the base price and any builder incentives, the monthly HOA, any community development district assessment, and the specific lot, all of which have to be read from the current builder and community documents for the exact home.
The pitch is a new home at an entry-level price in a fast growing Davenport corridor: US-27, Posner Park retail, and I-4 toward both Tampa and the Orlando attractions are within reach. The work is the diligence: read the contract and incentives, confirm the HOA and whether a CDD bond applies, and check resale comps in the surrounding new communities before you buy.
