Why Full Sail and Rollins Faculty Love Four Seasons Winter Park
By Stacy Ann Stephens • REALTOR® & Licensed Mortgage Broker • Winter Park, FL
If you work at Full Sail University or Rollins College, you already know how brutal the daily commute can be in the Winter Park and East Orlando area. What if you could cut your drive time down to just minutes while enjoying a peaceful, well-maintained community with low overhead? That’s exactly why so many faculty and staff are turning to Four Seasons Condominiums at 200 Saint Andrews Blvd in Winter Park, FL.
This established 20-acre community delivers the perfect balance of location, lifestyle, and investment potential — and it’s one of the smartest addresses for professionals and investors right now.
Location is Everything — And This One Delivers
Traffic in the Winter Park / East Orlando corridor is no joke. Faculty and staff at Full Sail University and Rollins College are discovering that living at Four Seasons makes a real difference in daily quality of life.
- ≈ 5 minutes to Full Sail University
- ≈ 7 minutes to Rollins College
- ≈ 12 minutes to UCF
- Close to Valencia College and major employment centers
That proximity isn’t just convenient — it supports strong, year-round rental demand for investors. Multiple nearby schools and employers create a stable tenant pool beyond just students.
Full Sail University is just minutes from Four Seasons Condominiums.
What Makes Four Seasons So Appealing for Professionals
Four Seasons is not student housing. It’s a mature, well-managed community inside Winter Park city limits with beautiful manicured grounds and excellent amenities:
- Three sparkling swimming pools
- Renovated fitness center
- Tennis courts and shuffleboard
- Clubhouse with library and gathering spaces
- Onsite management
The HOA includes water, sewer, trash, pest control, grounds maintenance, and pool upkeep. That means your biggest variable utility is usually just electricity — making budgeting simple and predictable, which professionals relocating from other cities especially appreciate.
Current pricing makes these units very accessible:
- 1-bedroom condos (725–835 sq ft) from the $150s
- 2-bedroom condos (987–1,100+ sq ft) from the $180s
- 3-bedroom options and 2-bedroom townhomes also available
Many units feature updates like granite counters, modern kitchens, and in-unit washer/dryer.
The Strong Rental Investment Case at Four Seasons
For investors, Four Seasons checks all the right boxes: excellent location, predictable expenses, and solid rental demand from faculty, staff, and professionals.
One-bedroom units have historically rented between $1,350–$1,500 per month, with larger units commanding more. The utility-inclusive HOA reduces tenant friction and helps keep turnover low.

As a licensed Mortgage Broker (NMLS #1933745), I specialize in helping investors secure DSCR loans in Florida — qualifying based on the property’s rental income rather than personal tax returns. This is a game-changer for self-employed investors and those building rental portfolios.
One Agent, One Lender — A Smoother Process
Buying as an owner-occupant or investor is much easier when your Realtor and Mortgage Broker are the same person. I handle both sides seamlessly, so you get fewer surprises, better communication, and a smoother closing.
