Florida’s Own Christmas Paradise: $4.9 Million Mansion in Disney-Founded Oasis Is the Ultimate Festive Wonderland

When a Florida community is conceived by the Walt Disney Co. and christened Celebration, it essentially has a sense of magic baked into its DNA.

But one home in particular within this luxurious neighborhood has taken the concept of celebration to an entirely different level—one that could help it to snag a buyer this holiday season.

Recently listed for $4.9 million, the 8,000-square-foot estate at 310 Acadia Lane is not only one of the most expensive homes currently on the market in Celebration, it also holds the high honor of being champion of the neighborhood’s Christmas decorating contest for 10 years running.

The home was originally built in 1999, but was “reimagined in 2014 by the current owners,” who have also helped to propel it to dizzying heights of holiday renown, according listing agent Jay Stewart.

For those with a fondness for festivity, the home—and its surrounding area—are a wonder to behold, turning into a Disney-themed Christmas paradise every year.

While the entire community goes all out every holiday season, the owners of 310 Acadia Lane have a particular talent for spreading festive cheer, having been collecting Disney-themed decorations for decades now.

“The owner is a huge decorator and Disney fan,” Stewart says. “You see this detail throughout the home. The Disney decorations have been collected over the last 20 years, and for the past 10 years, the homeowner has won the ‘Best Decorated Home in North Village’ award.”

But the magic of this listing doesn’t stop at the Disney decor. Inside, holiday whimsy meets luxury as the property unfolds across seven well-appointed bedrooms, seven full baths, and sprawling living spaces filled with custom built-ins.

“The kitchen, bathrooms, and floors have all been remodeled in the home, and nearly all of the HVAC units have been replaced as well,” Stewart says.

The updated chef’s kitchen includes stone counters, a large island, and high-end appliances, while multiple gathering rooms make the house ideal for hosting—even for extended stays.

“The property also features two single-bedroom garage apartments,” Stewart explains.

Throughout the main home, architectural details lean elegant and substantial— arched doorways, custom woodwork, a dramatic staircase, and oversized windows that frame views of the neighboring golf course.

Outside, the property is just as impressive. A resort-style pool and spa with a waterfall sit on a private terrace overlooking a pond and the 16th green of the Celebration Golf Club.

The property is also mere minutes from the community’s walkable downtown, known for its restaurants, festivals, and beloved annual snowfall event each winter. Then, of course, there is its proximity to Disney World itself, which it located just a short drive away.

“You are only 15 minutes away from Disney Parks and Disney Springs,” Stewart adds, making this home uniquely suited for anyone eager to keep the Disney magic close at hand.

Celebration may well be familiar to any true Disney fanatics, having been founded by the Walt Disney Company, which commissioned a team of leading architects to create a community modeled on “historical American small towns” back in the 1990s.

Today, the community is a thriving—and very picturesque—small town that is regularly hailed as being among the “prettiest” in the U.S.

Now, another community member has a chance to own a piece of that alluring lifestyle by snapping up the Acadia Lane home, which is on the market for the first time in a decade.
