Lake Nona Commercial Development – First Quarter 2012
Lake Nona, known for its community feel and visionary thinking, is continuing to see those ideas emerging in the commercial real estate market. Medical City continues to lead the way the Sanford-Burnham Medical Institute, UCF College of Medicine and the Burnett Biomedical Sciences Building already opened and the Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Nemour’s Children’s Hospital and The University of Florida Research and Academic Center all scheduled to be operational later this year.
Lake Nona Middle School opened in the fall of 2011 with rave reviews and Valencia College’s Lake Nona campus is rapidly progressing and is scheduled to be ready for the fall of 2012 classes. It’s safe to say the academic infrastructure from elementary school through post-graduate education creates a strong foundation for the health of our community and the opportunities will be plentiful for those who live here.
With such a large community, regional and national vision it is easy to understand why The Light Team at Keller Williams Realty continues to receive inquiries about commercial real estate in the Lake Nona market. Medical office space, retail, child care, restaurants and other support services continue to lead the charge as entrepreneurs are positioning to take advantage of the growth that is approaching fast. All of this development will undoubtedly lead to big box retail and entertainment opportunities as there will quickly be demand for these services. There is no doubt Lake Nona is on everyone’s commercial map.
If you have questions about available commercial space please email Jim@LightTeamRealty.com to discuss the growing opportunity within the Lake Nona community.

People in Lake Nona have been talking for months about a Panera Bread coming to our little neck of the woods.
Central Florida based Panera Bread has two, possibly three deals in the works to bring the much desired restaurant to the Lake Nona area.
Here’s the story from the Orlando Business Journal:

I am certainly not a professional restaurant critic. I am just a regular Lake Nona resident intent on supporting our local businesses and community members…but I must admit I have loved Nona Sushi since they opened a few years ago in the Lake Nona area. Deprived of restaurant choices in our community, my husband and I were doing back flips the first time we tried this excellent restaurant!
Nona Sushi has a warm ambiance and tranquility to it, making it a respite from a stressful workday for lunch, or a nice little date night location in the evenings. I especially like the water features and connection to nature, which reflects the landscape of the Lake Nona community.
Perhaps my favorite part of stopping in for lunch at Nona Sushi is the warm welcome from Ronnie, who remembers everyone’s name. It’s fun to joke around a bit with him before we order and he always remembers our special requests.
Jim and I typically dine during lunch. Jim likes the volcano and tuna rolls while my favorite is the crunch munch roll. I’m not a big fan of sushi, actually (I usually order the all cooked variety of rolls), but the sushi is so fresh here I have bravely ventured into trying the tuna rolls and have enjoyed it. I also sometimes order the Bento Box which is very yummy. Dinner time is also superb…and there are great choices for your non-sushi eating family and friends.

Nona Sushi offers a discount to all policemen, firefighters, teachers and nurses as well as members of the Lake Nona YMCA. UCF Medical School students and employees of the Burnham Institute, Nemours and the VA hospital also receive a discount. Check out their Tuesday through Thursday specials on Nona Sushi’s Facebook page at: www.facebook.com/pages/Nona-Sushi/37448387616
Nona Sushi is located at 10743 Narcoossee Road, Orlando, FL. 32832. It is located just to the south of the Publix shopping center behind Lake Nona Pharmacy. Give it a try and please let them know the Light Team at Keller Williams Realty sent you!

Welcome!
Sweet Mama’s of Lake Nona
My family has dined at Sweet Mamas in Lake Nona many a time for Sunday brunches and weeknight dinners, youth group get togethers and football team meals. Sweet Mamas has been a contributing member of the Lake Nona Community, proud sponsor of Relay for Life, provider of team meals and banquet food for the high school.
Sweet Mamas has a down home country atmosphere and family style dining. Our favorite is breakfast…I order the Country Fried Steak and Gravy with 2 eggs and hashbrowns. I like it all stacked up and they are kind enough to add some cheese on top. At lunch or dinner, I love the fish and chips (my daughter’s favorite too) and my daughter swears their french fries are the very best she’s ever had. At fifteen years old, I believe she qualifies as a french fry connoisseur, don’t you? My husband and son love their wings.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT IS WING NIGHT…AND FRIDAYS COME OUT FOR FISH!

Sweet Mamas location in Lake Nona
Sweet Mamas of Lake Nona is looking to upgrade their dining experience and will likely be moving to one of the commercial developments in the area…so stay tuned. For now, they are located across from Lake Nona High School at 12205 Narcoossee Rd., Orlando, FL. 32832
Also, they have a new restaurant opening up soon…Sweet Mama’s 2! Look for it this fall at 3020 Lamberton Blvd., Suite 115, Orlando, FL. 32825. Check them out on their Facebook page at www.facebook.com/sweetmamasrestaurant
Give Sweet Mamas of Lake Nona a try…then tell me what you think!
Blessings,
Carey Light from the Light Team at Keller Williams Realty in Lake Nona
