Pleasant Hill Elementary School

It's a good fit if you want space and an easy reach to the parks and airport — Walt Disney World is about 27 minutes and MCO around 32. The area draws commuters and theme-park families, and nearby schools like Poinciana High School serve older students. Larger lots and a mix of pool and waterfront homes give it a more relaxed, residential feel than tourist-corridor Kissimmee.

It's a mid-market zone, not a luxury one. The median list price is $399,900 and the median sold price over the last year was $405,000, with a strong entry point around $119,900 for smaller homes. Only one active listing is above $1M, so most of the inventory sits well within reach of a typical Central Florida budget.

Expect to pay around $216 per square foot on a median home of about 2,109 square feet, which lands most homes near that $399,900 list median. Prices span a wide range — from roughly $119,900 up to $1.65M — depending on size, condition, and whether the home has a pool or water frontage. There are 18 pool homes and 11 waterfront listings active right now for buyers targeting those features.

It's steady and balanced. 171 homes sold over the past 12 months, and sellers are getting about 97% of asking on average, so pricing is realistic on both sides. With a median 42.5 days on market and 92 active listings, buyers have time and selection without racing the clock.

HOA costs are light here — the median is $88 a month, and only 4 active listings sit in gated communities, so many homes have minimal or no association dues. Property taxes run a median of about $5,303 a year. For investors, the median rent of $2,300 a month gives a useful benchmark against those carrying costs.
