The Bear Lake Elementary zone sits on the west side of Altamonte Springs, a leafy, lake-dotted pocket of Seminole County where mature neighborhoods trade the noise of the tourist corridor for quiet streets and quick highway access. It's a practical place to call home: downtown Orlando is about 21 minutes away, Universal roughly 31, and even Walt Disney World is under an hour. Families are drawn here by the surrounding school options, including Lake Brantley High School and Teague Middle School.
Right now there are 73 active listings with a median list price of $230,000, though the range runs all the way from $95,900 to $1,350,000, so the mix spans condos, townhomes, and single-family homes. Over the past year 167 homes sold at a median of $350,000, with sellers collecting about 97% of asking — a sign of a steady, balanced market rather than a frenzy. With a median of 44 days on market, buyers have room to think, and you can track new inventory on the live map.

Bear Lake Elementary School FAQs
Is the Bear Lake Elementary area a good place to live?+
It's a settled, family-oriented part of Altamonte Springs with mature neighborhoods and easy highway access — downtown Orlando is about 21 minutes out. The surrounding schools, including Lyman High School, are a big part of the draw, and the mix of quiet streets and central location suits both commuters and families.
Is it expensive to buy here?+
It's mid-range for the Orlando metro: the median list price is $230,000 and the median sold price over the last year was $350,000. The gap reflects a broad inventory, from sub-$100,000 condos up to $1.35 million homes, so there's genuine flexibility depending on your budget.
What do homes cost in this zone?+
Prices average about $210 per square foot on a median home size of 1,275 square feet. Active listings span $95,900 to $1,350,000, and just four homes are currently priced above $1 million, so most of the market sits well below that ceiling.

What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
