Metrowest, FL Homes for Sale

Metrowest, FL

Metrowest is a rapidly growing series of planned communities on the southwestern side of Orlando. Besides the easy access to Disney World, living in this suburban community puts you within minutes of most of Orlando's biggest attractions: Universal Studios Florida, Sea World Orlando and Wetn Wild water park. Many of the finest golf courses in central Florida are found near the neighborhood, including the award winning Metrowest Country Club. The Florida weather is another attraction for both visitors and guests, with sultry summer days and unbelievably mild winters.

Metrowest, Florida Real Estate Market

Due to the surge of planned development that created the neighborhood, most of the single family homes, apartments and condominiums in the Metrowest real estate market were built after the mid-Seventies. Two and three bedroom homes are perhaps the most common homes for sale in Metrowest, but larger and smaller homes are certainly not absent from the real estate picture.

For the first time home buyer or seasonal resident, the Metrowest real estate market offers condominium units with buyer friendly prices. Many of the condo units in Metrowest are part of gated communities that provide other perks such as off street parking, clubhouses and other amenities.

However, condominiums are not just for the first time home buyer. In the luxury development of Villa Del Lago, upscale buyers will find both condo units and separate residences that overlook a private golf course and lake.

Veranda Park is poised to become the Palma Vista of Orlando. Like the Boca Raton community, Veranda Park is a Tuscan inspired planned community located along Hiawassee Road. Boutique shopping, a centrally located entertainment center and cobblestone streets make Veranda Park real estate an attractive option for luxury buyers.
