Mount Dora sits in the hills of Lake County, where a walkable historic downtown, lakeside setting, and a slower pace pull people who want small-town character without cutting themselves off from the city. It's the kind of place where you can spend a Saturday morning among antique shops and end the afternoon on the water, then still make it to Downtown Orlando in about 41 minutes. The housing runs the gamut here, from established single-family homes to master-planned neighborhoods like Sullivan Ranch and Stoneybrook Hills.

For buyers today, there are 326 active listings with a median list price of $469,950 and a wide range that runs from $89,900 up to nearly $2.8 million. Homes are averaging $234 per square foot and sitting about 49.5 days on market, so there's room to be selective and to negotiate. If you're price-sensitive, it's worth watching the just reduced listings and the new construction that makes up a healthy slice of inventory.

Mount Dora is in Lake County, Florida.
