The history of Winter Springs can be traced all the way back to the early 1800s when the area was owned by a merchant from New York named Moses Levy. Rights to the small region floated back and forth between various parties before the city as we know it today was officially incorporated as North Orlando in 1959, taking its name from the North Orlando Company which made great efforts to grow the community from a small village. In 1962, some 3,400 acres were annexed, and the city of Winter Springs was formally born. Start shopping for Winter Springs, FL homes for sale.
