Thornton Park Condo Living in Downtown Orlando, FL

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with LemonTree Realty

Thornton Park CentralThornton Park Condo Living is one of the best experiences I have had. I grew up in Lake Mary, FL and have spent the past year and half living in a Thornton park Condo in Downtown Orlando. Thornton park living has so much to offer for singles, families and empty nesters alike. 

Thornton Park is located in Downtown Orlando, Thornton Park is the city’s most stylish district.  Just east of Lake Eola, this residential neighborhood is home to both urban condos and oak-shaded bungalows with wrap around front porches and spacious front yards.  Thornton Park is filled with brick-lined streets, shade trees and sidewalks dotted with a variety of chic boutiques, trendy restaurants and relaxed outdoor cafes reminiscent of European cities.

Thornton Park also features a vibrant commercial district which stretches along Washington Street, Summerlin Avenue and Central Boulevard. Thornton Park offers a fresh urban scene that is distinctly different with its Old Florida style homes that are both attractive and affordable priced. Living in the Thornton Park neighborhood enables residents to keep their finger on the pulse of the city both day and night.  The downtown district and Thornton Park neighborhood is highly regarded by its diverse group of homeowners and has become the place to be for Orlando’s intellectuals, artists and young professionals.

Lake Eola Farmers MarketAs a resident of Thornton park condo I get to fully utilize the mix use space that is on the ground floor of my building. I have the option of walking to my amazing hair dressers at Lamb's Eat Ivy, grabbing a bite to eat at one of the plethora of great restaurants including Dexters, grab fresh produce on Sunday at the farmers market, walk to my eye doctors for that annual eye exam. Find that new best selling book at Urban Think, mail out my package to my sister in Michigan at the UPS store, shop for trendy threads, get a pedicure at one of the spa's like Thornton Park spa. Oh and when cooking that amazing dish and forgetting that all important item, I can simple walk over to the Publix or to the 7-11 for a refreshing slurpee. There are so many other things to do when you purchase a home in Thornton Park but these are just a few of my favorite places I like to walk to.

While Downtown Orlando is not a large city like Denver, New York City or Atlanta, Thornton park sure does have the feeling of a large city with a little bit of that laid back Florida atmosphere.
