Established community centrally located in DeBary

Surrounding six small lakes, including Lake Marie, Lake Marie Estates offers a little more than 650 homes in the bedroom community of DeBary. Most of the home inventory was constructed in the mid-1960s but is central in the city near multiple parks, golf courses and other essential amenities. “We see a lot of the overflow of people from the Orlando area because homes tend to be more affordable here,” says Chuck Shaver, a Realtor and broker associate with Keller Williams Heritage Realty, who has called Central Florida home for almost 40 years. “It has a small-town feel. Plenty of local amenities exist, but it is a good location in the Orlando metro.”
Lake Marie Estates boasts a beautiful lake right in the center of the neighborhood.

Midcentury ranch homes around six small lakes

Tight streets are lined with palm trees that give off the Florida vibe. Most homes are either stucco or brick ranch homes with hipped roofs that adorn moderate-sized lots with fenced-in backyards. Some homes back up to small lakes, which gives the potential for water-front property and slightly higher flood risks than the rest of the neighborhood. Lake Marie Estates has a minimal flood factor but has an Active Sound Score of 75 out of 100. Prices range from $236,000 to $384,000, with the median price falling just over $290,000. “The homes are older but solid and have started to be modernized. The market is picking up over the last few weeks,” Shaver says. While not on the coast, hurricanes that hit the cost affect DeBary with high winds and potential flooding.

Multiple public transportation options

In a bedroom community, residents can get around the Orlando Metro on the SunRail, a 61-mile commuter rail system encompassing Central Florida. The lone stop in DeBary is about 4 miles from the neighborhood. Residents can also use the Votran, Volusia County’s public bus service. Lake Marie Estates has four lines, Votran 23, 31, 32 and 33, nearby. Neighbors can use United States Route 17-92 or drive down Saxon Boulevard to reach Interstate 4, which runs east to west across Florida. “We don’t get as much traffic as those souths of the St. John’s River Bridge, and living in the neighborhood, and the city of Debary is just a convenient location in Central Florida,” Shaver says.

Living in a Florida Trail Town

Across the street from DeBary Elementary, Eagles Nest Park is a small neighborhood park where children can play on a playground, or visitors can shoot some hoops on the paved half-court. DeBary’s Parks and Recreation Department uses Rob Sullivan Park for its softball and baseball fields. Its playground features large canopy umbrellas to shade the equipment from the summer sun. The city became Florida’s 12th Trail Town, offering more than 600 miles of paved trails from three major state pathways – the St. Johns River-to-Sea Loop, Coast-to-Coast Trail and the Heart of Florida Loop. Golfers can use multiple nearby courses, including the private DeBary County Club or the semi-private Glenn Abbey Golf Course, a par 72.

New DeBary Main Street

About 4 miles south of Lake Marie Estates, the Main Street development will bring a new downtown area to DeBary. The development, which broke ground in January 2024, is across from the city’s SunRail Station and is on the Central Florida Trail system. The mixed-use facility will be completed in two phases, with phase one being the addition of townhouses and live-work units on the east side and phase two being the retail on the first floor and apartments above them. The entire project will take until 2027 to complete. "It's a small town, but it's growing," says Monica Houseworth, a Realtor with Discom Realty, Inc., and local resident. "Not only will this project will include the new downtown, but also retailers like Publix."
