MONTVERDE, Fla., May 4, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Bella Collina, Florida's premier luxury lakefront and private golf club community,  earned the overall Grand Award as Central Florida's "best community" at the 2017 Parade of Homes event. Each year, the Greater Orlando Builders Association holds the Parade of Homes to showcase high-end designer homes and new constructions.

Sir Nick Faldo, longtime Orlando-area resident and six-time Major Champion, who designed the community's golf club, has just started construction on his new personal residence in The Club at Bella Collina.
