Search Southwood on the map

Southwood sits in the southwest corner of Orange County, close enough to reach Universal Orlando in about 16 minutes and downtown in roughly 18. It's the kind of neighborhood where you're zoned for Dr. Phillips High and can be at Orlando International Airport in under half an hour — practical, connected, and unpretentious. If you're weighing nearby options like Metro West or the newer Laureate Park, Southwood reads as the sensible middle ground.

The market here moves fast: the four active listings carry a median list price of $322,500, and homes are sitting a median of just one day before they go under contract. Over the past year 14 homes sold at a median of $290,500, with sellers collecting 98% of asking — a sign that well-priced homes don't linger. Compared to much of Orlando, or higher-priced pockets like Hunters Creek, this is a spot where you can still buy in the low $300s.

Southwood is a community in Orlando, Florida.
