Oviedo Florida Homes
The city of Oviedo is “growing in the right direction,” says its website, and indeed, this is a city with something for everybody.
Located in Seminole County only minutes from the world-famous attractions of Orlando, Oviedo has all the renowned advantages of Central Florida—its entertainment and culture, nearby ocean beaches and attractions, reasonably priced homes and lots of employment opportunities—and yet, it is the best of both worlds—the vibrance of big-city Orlando with small town charm.
With its population now approaching 30,000, it’s easy to understand why more and more people are coming to live in Oviedo’s tastefully landscaped neighborhoods. Residents enjoy a wide range of amenities, lakes, rivers and parks in a temperate sub-tropical climate. Oviedo has an excellent educational system and is near to medical facilities, shopping, entertainment and sporting activities of all kinds.

The settlement of Oviedo grew along the shores of Lake Charm, named long ago by a visitor to a convalescent home built there. The visitor praised the lake for its beauty and charm which had helped to restore her father’s health.
The rich, fertile soils around Oveido gave rise to the production of celery and citrus in the early years. And Oviedo, with its accessibility to Solary’s Wharf, a landing on Lake Jessup where merchants and farmers could ship their produce, grew into a bustling port city. By 1950 it was the second largest town in Seminole County with a population of 1,800. As Walt Disney World and other tourist-related industries arrived, Oviedo naturally became a popular and sought-after place to live and work.
