North Cove is a small, established pocket of Longwood in Seminole County, the kind of place where mature trees line the streets and the pace stays slow even though downtown Orlando is about 21 minutes away. It sits among well-known Longwood communities like Sweetwater Oaks, The Springs, and Wildmere, so buyers get a real neighborhood feel with dependable Seminole schools nearby. Families here are zoned for Woodlands Elementary, Rock Lake Middle, and Lake Mary High School.
The market is genuinely thin right now, so timing matters. There's a single active listing at $560,000, and over the past year only two homes sold, closing at a median of $509,500 with sellers getting about 98% of asking. With homes lingering a median of 170 days, patient buyers have some room to negotiate — but inventory this tight means the right home doesn't come along often. Nearby Sweetwater Club can be worth a look if you want more options in the same corridor.
North Cove is a community in Longwood, Florida.
