Welcome to Tour Tuesday, where we take you inside the communities that make life near Walt Disney World more than magical…it makes it livable.
This week, we’re spotlighting one of Horizon West’s fastest-growing and most stylish communities: Encore at Ovation by M/I Homes.
If you’re looking for sleek design, smart location, walkability, and everyday convenience just minutes from Disney property, Encore might be exactly what your dream life is calling for.
📍 Location, Location… Magic?
Encore at Ovation sits on the western edge of Walt Disney World, tucked inside the Horizon West area of Winter Garden.
🚗 From your driveway, it’s:
- Less than 10 minutes to Magic Kingdom
- 5 minutes to Flamingo Crossings (new shopping + dining)
- 3 minutes to the 429 expressway
- 25–30 minutes to downtown Orlando and MCO airport
You’re in the magic without being surrounded by tourism.
That’s the sweet spot.
🏘️ What Makes Encore at Ovation Unique?
This isn’t just another subdivision. Encore was designed with today’s homeowner in mind—especially those looking for:
- Modern architecture
- Low-maintenance living
- Energy-efficient smart homes

The layout includes:
- Single-family homes with front porches and open-concept interiors

It’s intentional. It’s modern. It’s refreshing.
