From an architectural perspective, homes in Baldwin Park cover a relatively wide field, but yet homes don’t particularly feel out of place. Perhaps this is because homes are built in light and/or neutral exterior colors. Single-family homes are typically built in a traditional style, although occasionally you will find a Mediterranean style home in the community. Craftsman homes and bungalows are a popular home type in Baldwin Park, although there are many homes that incorporate Colonial columns or wide, ornate porches not unlike Victorian homes. 

Townhomes in Baldwin Park typically stick to a similar style: stucco exteriors, shuttered windows, wide porches, and dormer windows (also often found with single-family properties) are common features. Parking spaces (accessed via alleyways) are also popular. 

Luxury homes in Baldwin Park are larger in square footage and are found on some of the most exclusive lots in the community—those that back onto the waterfront. While there are some properties that have views of Lake Baldwin and Lake Susannah, there are also a few smaller lakes that allow for some fantastic views—and homes often feature backyard pools.

 

Baldwin Park Highlights & Amenities

The community of Baldwin Park is built around two major lakes: Lake Baldwin and Lake Susannah. This is one of the biggest draws of the area, as Baldwin Park has acres upon acres of parks, green spaces, and trails around the lakefront. Residents love getting out and about, which is also why the community spirit is as vibrant as it is. 

Lake Baldwin Park and Harbor Park are both located around Lake Baldwin, and together they circle the entirety of this body of water. Here you’ll find park benches, walking and running trails, fishing piers, and a dog park. 

Many of the community’s shopping and dining options are found on New Broad Streets, which leads down to the lake. This area is quaint, designed for walkability, with tree-lined, cobblestone streets. Retail is both local boutiques and large chain stores; the area includes a large grocery store, as well. The northern portion of the community is home to the Orlando VA Medical Center, and the Orlando Veterans’ Memorial Park. 

Residents are also allowed to book Grace Hopper Hall for hosting events. This venue also has a (heated) outdoor pool and lounge area. There are plenty of neighborhood green spaces, some of which include playgrounds for the kids, located all around Baldwin Park. Blue Jacket Park is the community’s largest park, with generously-sized sports fields (also where community events are held!), a fountain, three baseball diamonds, basketball courts, and tennis courts. 

In regards to education, Baldwin Park has two schools: Baldwin Park Elementary School and Glenridge Middle School. High school students in Baldwin Park attend Winter Park High School.
