LAKE NONA, FL - Flournoy Development Group and JR West announced the groundbreaking of Ellison Nona, the newest addition to Ellison, Flournoy's premier multifamily brand. Located in the thriving Lake Nona submarket of Orlando, Florida, the development spans approximately 14.2 acres and features 377 thoughtfully designed one-, two-, and three-bedroom residences tailored to a variety of lifestyle needs.
The "Class A" community embodies luxury, convenience, and connectivity, offering a distinguished living experience with a range of premium amenities. The free-standing clubhouse will include a state-of-the-art fitness center, a yoga and spin studio, a virtual golf simulator, and a resort-style pool overlooking Lake Whippoorwill. Outdoor amenities include a dog park, pickleball court, grilling pavilion, and multiple lakefront docks. The community incorporates modern work-from-home conveniences, including coworking spaces and dedicated conference rooms. An integrated leasing and mailroom facility with a grab-and-go mini-market adds further convenience. Secure, gated access, tuck-under garages, and surface parking for 593 vehicles round out the thoughtful design.
"We are thrilled to commence construction on Ellison Nona, a transformative project that reflects our commitment to creating vibrant, elevated communities," said Blake Breimann, President and CEO for Flournoy Development Group. "This unique location in Lake Nona provides unparalleled access to major employment centers, world-class healthcare, and exceptional lifestyle amenities."
Situated along the dynamic Narcoossee Road corridor, Ellison Nona offers residents immediate access to FL-417, the Lake Nona Town Center, and Orlando International Airport (MCO). The site features stunning views and direct access to Lake Whippoorwill, including a public walking trail connecting adjacent properties and a two-story clubhouse with lakefront amenities. Key transportation options include proximity to major highways and the recently expanded Brightline high-speed rail system at MCO, enhancing connectivity to Miami, West Palm Beach, and future destinations such as Tampa and Walt Disney World.
Lake Nona's vibrant economy, driven by healthcare, corporate campuses, and educational institutions, supports a rapidly growing employment base. The project is only 20 miles from Walt Disney World Resort, the state's largest employer, and 7 miles from Orlando International Airport (MCO). Other major employers near the community include Lake Nona Medical City, which houses Nemours Children's Hospital, the VA Medical Center, and the UCF College of Medicine. Corporate campuses for industry leaders such as KPMG, Amazon Robotics Distribution Center, and Verizon further bolster the local job market.
This project represents a highly competitive addition to the market, with its proximity to FL-417 making it the most accessible apartment community on Narcoossee Road. The luxury development also offers conditioned corridors, expansive lake views, and a public walking trail, providing an elevated living experience unmatched by other properties in the area.
The Ellison Nona project team includes architect Forum Architecture & Interior Design, contractor FaverGray, Civil Engineer Kimley-Horn, and the community will be managed by Flournoy Properties Group.
