Like many of the other cities in this region, real estate is diverse, and includes single-family homes, multi-family homes (condos, townhomes, and other rental properties), and even vacant lots. Comparatively, Altamonte Springs is a more affordable option to other areas around Orlando, and thus attracts a variety of buyers: from working professionals to first-time homebuyers. The city is also pretty built out, so new construction homes are quite rare to find on the market.
In regards to home style and type, single-family homes for sale in Altamonte Springs encompass a variety of styles, although single-story ranches are by far the most popular. Many of the properties in this city were built between the 1960s and 1980s (with a significant portion in the 1970s), and this was the popular architectural style of the time. A lot of buyers like Altamonte Springs because the homes and the neighborhoods are established, and there's a certain charm and character to the area that feels like home. Despite many of the single-family homes being older, it is pretty common to find that properties have been recently renovated, incorporating some of the modern elements into their design, such as upgraded kitchens and bathrooms, recessed lighting, and new appliances.
Altamonte Springs also has its fair share of gated and private communities. Spring Lake Hills is significant, as it was the first gated community in the county, and houses 229 single-family properties around Spring Lake and Lake Destiny.
