Where it is
Orchid Estates is off Jason Dwelley Parkway just south of W Kelly Park Road in north Apopka. Streets include White Dahlia Drive and Tigris Drive. Rock Springs Ridge, also off Jason Dwelley Parkway, is listed by one source as its neighbor to the east. Kelly Park School, a public PK-8 campus opened in August 2022, is at 4700 Jason Dwelley Parkway.
The SR 429 interchange at Kelly Park Road and the rest of the corridor are described in the Kelly Park interchange overview.
Homes and prices
Every home was built by Ryan Homes within about four years, and the subdivision is finished. Sizes run from about 2,000 to about 3,700 square feet, larger than the roughly 1,600 to 2,700 square foot range at Bridle Path and Windrose north of Kelly Park Road.
| Measure | Figure | Period |
|---|---|---|
| Median sale price | About $548,000 | 12 months ending September 20, 2026 |
| Active listings | One, from about $460,000 | November 2026 |
With about 122 homes, a 12-month median rests on a small number of sales, and a single listing well below it does not show that prices fell. It may simply be a smaller plan. Ask for the individual sales and compare on square footage.
HOA, CDD and running costs
HOA dues are about $83 a month, the median of nine listings. The association's amenities are a playground, a park and sidewalks. No pool is listed.
CDD status is the open question. The data source for this subdivision flags it as something to check, and it was not confirmed either way. A CDD assessment would show as a non-ad valorem line on the parcel's Orange County tax bill. Look before you offer.
City limits status was not verified either. For 2026 the total millage is 16.0079 inside the City of Apopka and 15.9798 or 16.0306 in the base unincorporated codes. After a sale the assessed value resets to market value on the following January 1, so estimate your tax from your purchase price, not from the seller's bill. Use the property tax estimator and the mortgage calculator.
Zoned schools
Zoned schools were not captured for Orchid Estates. Kelly Park School is on the same parkway and was graded A by the state for 2025-26, but a nearby campus is not a zoning confirmation, and the school board approved boundary changes involving that school for 2026-27. Enter the address in the OCPS attendance zone lookup.
Getting around
Kelly Park Road leads west to the SR 429 interchange, which opened in July 2017. SR 429 is tolled: $0.98 with a transponder at the Ponkan main plaza under the schedule effective July 1, 2026. The Kelly Park Road ramp toll was not captured. A Publix anchors Kelly Park Crossing at 3080 W Kelly Park Road.
The City is widening about 1.5 miles of W Kelly Park Road to four lanes, from west of SR 429 to just past Plymouth Sorrento Road. Notice to begin was issued March 18, 2026 with a target of Thanksgiving 2027. A funding shortfall was unresolved in October 2026. Test your own route in the commute times tool.
What to check before you buy here
- Check the parcel's tax bill for a CDD or other non-ad valorem line. This was flagged and not resolved.
- Confirm the mill code on the Property Appraiser record and who provides water and sewer.
- Ask for individual closed sales with square footage, since one listing and a small-sample median do not agree.
- Ask for the HOA budget and rules, including fence, parking and rental rules.
- Ask for the Kelly Park Road widening schedule and what is approved nearby. See the development tracker.
- Check the FEMA flood map for the lot and get an insurance quote during the inspection period.
