Disney’s Golden Oak Will Offer Luxury Custom Homes For Purchase.
 
Disney announced Golden Oak, a unique luxury residential resort community offering the unprecedented opportunity to purchase a home at the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. Especially designed for resort living, Golden Oak will provide an entirely new way for families to connect with the world’s best known family destination and entertainment brand.

“We have a range of options for Guests at all price points to enjoy the Walt Disney World Resort. But Golden Oak is something totally new: a residential resort community, right in the heart of the magic,” said Matt Kelly, vice president, Disney Resort Real Estate Development. “Golden Oak will be a place where families can come together and make memories for generations to come–with Disney World right at their doorstep.”

Golden Oak will offer a limited collection of single family custom homes priced between $1.5 and $8 million on the 980-acre site master-planned community. Fewer than 30 home sites are available for sale this year. Designed by Disney’s famed Imagineers, the gated community will feature intimate neighborhoods and amenities created with everyone in the family in mind. Disney’s well-known attention to detail will be visible in every park, pathway and the proposed private clubhouse. Expansive conservation areas comprise almost half of the entire 980 acre footprint.

More information about Golden Oak is available at www.disneygoldenoak.com. Golden Oak will use a Priority Reservation List for potential homebuyers. A position is secured on the list in the order in which a signed Lot Release Priority Agreement and a refundable $25,000 deposit is received. Deposits are now being accepted, with the first completed homes projected for 2011. At build-out, Golden Oak is anticipated to include approximately 450 homes.
