Explore Thornton Park & Delaney Park Single-Family Homes For Sale

Two desirable neighborhoods just outside of Downtown Orlando, Thornton Park and Delaney Park have a distinctly charming atmosphere. Thornton Park, located just east of the Central Business District, is recognized for its brick streets and unique, walkable commercial area, a few blocks away from Lake Eola Park. Delaney Park, in contrast, feels more suburban, and is almost entirely residential.

Real estate in both of these sought-after neighborhoods is primarily single-family homes, although there are on occasion some townhomes and condos available on the market—although these typically sell quite quickly. Regardless, for buyers searching for their dream detached property, there is a lot of competition, despite there being a significant number of homes in these neighborhoods. 

Thornton Park is an eccentric mix of old and new properties. From older, ranch-style bungalows to modern, multi-story properties, there are many architecturally-distinct homes for sale in this neighborhood. As a result of this, price ranges significantly from property to property, with older homes being typically on the more affordable end, and the new, custom homes generally falling close to or in the luxury price bracket. 

The south end of Thornton Park, which has homes dating back to the 40s and 50s, can be more affordable in general. Many homebuyers have seen the investment potential of these homes, and have either updated or renovated recently. New builds are found throughout the neighborhood, although are primarily located north of East Central Boulevard. Again, architecturally, homes for sale in Thornton Park include Craftsman, Florida Ranch, Arts and Crafts, Mediterranean, and Modern. 

Delaney Park is also a sought-after neighborhood, but single-family home prices tend to be higher in this neighborhood than in Thornton Park. One of the reasons for this is likely because property sizes are larger comparatively. Much like the other neighborhood, Delaney Park is a mixture of older and newer properties, with architecture that ranges widely. This area is also a popular choice for homebuyers who wish to build their own custom home, which is why styles include everything from Craftsman to Mediterranean. 

Both neighborhoods are popular with families, for single-family homes offer multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, as well as convenient locations close to the downtown and/or to work.

Thornton Park & Delaney Park Highlights & Amenities

Thornton Park and Delaney Park each have excellent amenities—part of why these neighborhoods are as desirable as they are. And although mostly residential, those who live in these neighborhoods are only a short drive (sometimes only a walk!) away from even more exciting amenities. 

Thornton Park’s businesses on East Washington Street offer both convenience and unique charm. Mostly small restaurants and boutique stores, this area draws in many for its walkability and lively atmosphere. Residents enjoy having amenities just outside their doorstep. Thornton Park is also located near Lake Eola, which features park and walking paths that are great for taking a jog or walking the dog. 

Delaney Park’s large lake, Lake Lancaster, features a small park, but one of the biggest highlights is the actual Delaney Park. Found in the north end of the neighborhood, this green space has a playground for the kids, sports fields and baseball diamonds, and tennis courts.
