An established and trendy Orlando neighborhood
Colonialtown North is the type of Florida neighborhood where residents can step out of their pastel bungalows to walk along tropical tree-lined streets to grab a coffee from a local coffee shop. “It’s a very walkable neighborhood; you’ll see families out riding bikes, and there are a lot of parks. But you’re close to everything. You have Mills Avenue, where there are a lot of restaurants and cool bars,” says Gwendolen Flynn, a Realtor with Coldwell Banker Realty who has served the area for four years. Nestled in northeastern Orlando, the neighborhood maintains a laidback, residential feel, though the restaurant corridors at its borders infuse the established community with a trendier atmosphere.

20th century bungalows and modern townhouses
Colonialtown North reflects the architectural variety that makes Orlando neighborhoods distinct. “They’ve renovated all these bungalows, so they all have charm. There’s a lot of character in that area. That’s why it stays trendy,” says Christoper Tulip, a Realtor with Charles Rutenberg Realty who has served Orlando for seven years. Renovated bungalows from the early-to-mid 20th century are usually priced between $400,000 and $700,000. Townhouses built in the last 10 years reflect the neighborhood’s colorful, contemporary designs and usually cost around $430,000 to $600,000. Newly built single-family homes appear in striking angular designs and cost up to $1 million.

Indulge in ramen from Hawkers Asian Street Food
The Mills 50 District is the name for the trendy hotspots that line North Mills Avenue on the neighborhood’s west side. “There’s always something new popping up there,” Tulip says. Residents dig into bento boxes with brisket and ribs from Pig Floyd’s Urban Barbakoa or find an array of authentic Asian dishes from Hawkers Asian Street Food. Locals looking to unwind by sipping a beer and listening to live indie music head to Will’s Pub. There are also a couple of boutiques and retailers in the Mills 50 District, like the Sunny State Company boutique and the Remix Record Shop, and residents can stop by Publix for groceries.
