Sorrento Homes for Sale

Sorrento and Mount Plymouth sit in eastern Lake County, between Mount Dora and the Seminole County line. The area is known for larger lots, rural and semi-rural properties, gated communities, golf communities, and newer residential development, with access toward Sanford and Orlando via the Wekiva Parkway.

Because much of the area is unincorporated, buyers should pay attention to county services, zoning, utilities, HOA structure, and whether a property uses well and septic.

If you are comparing Sorrento with Mount Dora, Eustis, or the Orlando side of Central Florida, the housing mix and lot sizes can feel very different.
