Valencia Gardens
An established East Orange County pocket near UCF
Valencia Gardens sits in the heart of Alafaya, the sprawling east Orange County community shaped by its proximity to UCF, the research corridor, and easy access toward downtown Orlando. It's a settled, residential neighborhood where kids are zoned to Union Park Elementary, Union Park Middle, and University High — a straightforward draw for families who want to stay put through the school years.
The market reality here is scarcity: there are currently zero active listings, so this is a neighborhood you watch rather than shop. Over the last 12 months just six homes changed hands, at a median sold price of $321,500 — a genuinely attainable number for this part of Orange County. When homes do list they move on strong terms, with sellers collecting about 99% of asking, so buyers should be ready to act. Keep an eye on the live map so you catch the next one early.

Straight answers
Valencia Gardens FAQs
Is Valencia Gardens a good place to live?+
It's an established residential neighborhood in Alafaya, well-positioned near UCF and the east Orlando job corridor. Families like that it's zoned to University High, Union Park Middle, and Union Park Elementary, and the low turnover — only six sales in the past year — reflects owners who settle in and stay.
Is Valencia Gardens expensive?+
Not by Orange County standards. The median sold price over the last 12 months was $321,500, which makes it one of the more attainable neighborhoods in the Alafaya area for buyers who want a real home rather than a condo.
What do homes cost in Valencia Gardens?+
Recent sales landed at a median of $321,500, and sellers took home about 99% of their asking price on average. There are no active listings right now, so pricing on the next available home will be worth watching against that benchmark.
How is the market in Valencia Gardens?+
Tight. With zero active listings and only six homes sold in the past 12 months, inventory is the real constraint here. Because sellers are averaging 99% of asking, serious buyers should have financing lined up and monitor the live map so they don't miss a new listing.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
We don't have current HOA or property tax figures on file for Valencia Gardens, so confirm those directly on any specific listing before you write an offer. For renters, the median rent in the neighborhood is about $2,295 per month.
