Median days on market
Buenavista Woods sits in southwest Orlando, where the big-ticket draws of Central Florida are close enough to make a quick afternoon trip feel routine — Walt Disney World is about 17 minutes out and Universal Orlando roughly 18. It's a settled, low-key residential pocket of larger homes, four of the five current listings coming with a pool and one on the water. Families here feed into Sand Lake Elementary, Southwest Middle, and Lake Buena Vista High School, and the location keeps commutes to downtown Orlando) reasonable at around 27 minutes. If you want proximity to the parks without living on top of the tourist corridor, this is the trade-off that works.
The market here is thin and priced for move-up buyers: five active listings with a median list price of $824,900, ranging from $735,000 to just over $1 million. Over the past year 11 homes sold at a median of $702,000, with sellers collecting about 98% of asking — a sign that well-priced homes move but buyers still hold some negotiating room across the typical 53 days on market. Compared with newer master-planned options like Laureate Park or the condo-heavy Central Business District, Buenavista Woods trades density for space. Buyers browsing Orlando homes for sale who want square footage and a pool should keep this neighborhood on the short list.

Buenavista Woods FAQs
Is Buenavista Woods a good place to live?+
It's a quiet, established southwest Orlando neighborhood built around larger single-family homes, most with pools, and assigned to Sand Lake Elementary, Southwest Middle, and Lake Buena Vista High School. The real appeal is location: Disney is about 17 minutes out, Universal roughly 18, and MCO airport around 29. It suits buyers who want space and park access without the tourist-corridor congestion.
Is Buenavista Woods expensive?+
It sits firmly in the move-up tier, with a median list price of $824,900 and current listings ranging from $735,000 to just over $1 million. That's higher than much of the Orlando market, though you're paying for square footage — the median home is about 2,816 sqft at $291 per square foot. Compared with condo-focused areas like the Central Business District, the cost buys you a detached home and yard.
What do homes cost in Buenavista Woods?+
Active listings currently run from $735,000 to $1,090,000 with a median list price of $824,900. Over the past 12 months, 11 homes actually sold at a median of $702,000, so closing prices have been landing below today's asking levels. There's one listing above $1 million and one on the water in the mix.
How is the market right now?+
Inventory is tight — just five active listings — and homes take a median of 53 days to sell. Sellers are getting about 98% of asking on average, which signals a balanced market where fair-priced homes move but buyers still have a little leverage to negotiate. With only 11 sales in the past year, each listing carries weight, so timing and pricing matter.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
The HOA is modest at a median of $69 per month, which is light for a neighborhood of this caliber. Property taxes run higher, with a median around $8,244 per year reflecting the home values here. If you're weighing a rental instead, the median rent in the area is about $4,000 a month.
