Oviedo/Chuluota FL Home Sales in May 2010

Once farmland given over to celery and citrus crops, the City of Oviedo, located northeast of Orlando in Seminole County, is now a thriving bedroom community where residents enjoy a wealth of recreational pastimes including nature walks, bird watching, butterfly spotting, hiking, fishing, biking, airboat rides, and horseback riding. Rounding out the available activities are an 18-hole golf course, 3 aquatic facilities, an outdoor skate park, and concerts and football games at the nearby UCF Arena. Add one of the best school systems in Central Florida, easy access to 2 international airports, quick drives to the beaches and theme parks, and Oviedo makes for the coolest hot spot to live, work, and play.

Located east of Oviedo, the rural-like town of Chuluota generally offers larger home sites and a distinctly country feel. Even so, approximately 1000 new homes have been built here since 2003. Its growing population takes advantage of the natural beauty of the nearby Little Big Econ State Forest. Chuluota— pronounced Choo-lee-oh-tah—is a Native American word meaning “Isle of Pines”.
