The Islands Of Valencia
Quiet East Orlando living close to everything
The Islands Of Valencia is a small, established pocket of Alafaya in eastern Orange County, where the appeal is steadiness rather than spectacle. It's the kind of neighborhood where kids walk to Union Park Elementary and the commute downtown is short enough to matter — roughly 13 minutes to downtown Orlando and about 28 to MCO. Families here draw on the University High and Union Park Middle school assignments while staying close to the shops and job centers along the Alafaya and University corridors.
For buyers, this is a tightly held neighborhood — there are currently no active listings, so you'll want to watch the live map and move quickly when something comes up. Over the last 12 months just five homes changed hands, at a median sold price of $325,000, and sellers averaged 102% of asking. That combination of low turnover and above-list sales tells you demand outruns supply here.

It suits buyers who want a settled, low-turnover East Orlando neighborhood with an easy commute — about 13 minutes to downtown Orlando and 28 to the airport. Families also value the assigned University High, Union Park Middle, and Union Park Elementary schools. The quiet, established feel is the main draw here.
Is it expensive to buy here?+
No — it's one of the more attainable corners of Alafaya, with a median sold price of $325,000 over the last 12 months. That's a reasonable entry point for the location and school assignments. Just be prepared to act fast, since homes here don't come up often.
What do homes cost in The Islands Of Valencia?+
The median sold price over the past year was $325,000 across five closed sales. There are no active listings at the moment, so current asking prices aren't available. Keep an eye on the live map to catch new inventory as it lists.
How is the market right now?+
It's a seller's market driven by scarcity — zero homes are currently active and only five sold in the last 12 months. Those sellers averaged 102% of their asking price, meaning buyers often need to compete. Come in ready with financing in order and a plan to move quickly.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
HOA and property tax figures aren't available in the current data for this neighborhood, largely because so few homes have traded recently. Once you're looking at a specific property, we can pull the exact HOA dues and tax history for that address. Your agent can confirm those numbers before you write an offer.
