Once known for its sprawling citrus groves, Dr. Phillips has blossomed into one of Central Florida’s most desirable neighborhoods. Perfectly situated between Downtown Orlando and Walt Disney World, this vibrant community offers an unbeatable combination of luxury living, convenience, and lifestyle amenities. With quick access to all major highways, theme parks, and business districts, it’s no wonder so many people are proud to call Dr. Phillips home.
As someone who has lived here for over 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of watching this community grow and evolve, while still holding onto its charm and sense of community. Whether you're raising a family, seeking a serene retreat, or simply want to be in the heart of it all—Dr. Phillips delivers.
One of the community’s most iconic features is Restaurant Row, a stretch along Sand Lake Road that offers an impressive lineup of fine dining, trendy eateries, and international cuisine. From fresh seafood to authentic Italian and everything in between, there’s no shortage of options for food lovers and date nights alike.
Just a few minutes away is The Mall at Millenia, a high-end shopping destination featuring luxury brands and upscale boutiques. Whether you're shopping for designer fashion or home décor, you’ll find it here. The area also boasts a variety of local shops, fitness centers, spas, and other lifestyle conveniences.
Dr. Phillips offers an abundance of outdoor recreation. Arnold Palmer’s Bay Hill Club & Lodge is a golfer’s dream and one of the most prestigious courses in the country. There are also beautiful parks, walking and biking trails, and lakefront areas perfect for paddleboarding or a peaceful sunset stroll.
Personally, I love being able to start and end my day with a bike ride to my neighborhood park—an everyday reminder of how closely nature and community go hand in hand here.
Families are drawn to Dr. Phillips for its top-rated public and private schools, along with a safe, welcoming atmosphere. Community events, playgrounds, and sports leagues make it a great place for kids to grow up and thrive.
Whether you're heading to Universal Studios, Epic Universe, ICON Park, SeaWorld or Disney, world-class entertainment is just around the corner. Plus, downtown Orlando's arts and cultural venues are only a short drive away. Need a weekend getaway? Natural springs, state parks, and Florida’s beaches are all within an hour’s reach.
As a local resident and real estate professional with deep roots in this community, I’m passionate about helping others discover all that Dr. Phillips has to offer. Whether you're buying, selling, or simply exploring your options, I’d be honored to guide you through the process.
