Established neighborhood in transition anchored by a variety of worship centers
Malibu Groves, located among the established neighborhoods west of Downtown Orlando, offers one of the city's most diverse urban settings. Worship centers serving several faiths provide a strong foundation for a community that has traditionally dealt with high crime rates. As the city expands its downtown-area revitalization efforts, however, the neighborhood is slowly undergoing a transition, illustrated most notably by continued single-family home construction. “You’ll find a lot of re-gentrification in that area,” says Rochelle Warriner of United Realty Preferred, who has been immersed in Orlando-area real estate since 2019. “Older homes get torn down, your impact fees are already taken care of, and because the downtown area is growing so quickly, you can sell a property for $240,000 minimum. So there is definitely new construction going on all the time.”
Malibu Groves is a suburban neighborhood right outside of Downtown Orlando.

Established neighborhood seeing residential growth
Midcentury-moderns and ranch-style homes are common, and smaller traditional homes also can be found among the neighborhood’s mostly established housing, which is potentially appealing to first-time homebuyers and investors alike. Contemporary custom homes built from the 1990s to the present day demonstrate the neighborhood’s slow but steady residential growth. “Developers are breaking a lot of ground there,” says Hazel Heyer, a listing agent with Keller Williams Legacy who has closed 134 sales in the Orlando area in the past five years. The newer homes come with standard features that include private driveways and attached garages. Prices typically range from the high-100,000s for the coziest older homes to the high 300,000s for the largest contemporary models.
Malibu Groves is in the city of Orlando and borders the Pine Hills and Orlo Vista areas.

Residents have access to small neighborhood parks, nearby larger complexes
Ivey Lane Park is the featured stop among several small community green spaces that offer residents the opportunity to stay active. The Universal Orlando Boys & Girls Club located on the neighborhood’s southern edge, offers youth a convenient place to socialize and play sports after school. South of the neighborhood is Eagle Nest Park, a contemporary green space on the shores of Lake Fran that features a bike trail. North of the neighborhood is Barnett Park, a sprawling recreational complex on the shores of Lawne Lake that features baseball diamonds, soccer fields, a disc golf course and a skatepark among its amenities. “It’s an amazing park with a really gorgeous lake,” says Warriner, who adds that the adjacent Central Florida Fairgrounds and its amphitheater provide an appealing spot for taking in concerts and other events. The fairgrounds also host the Orlando Outdoor Market, a freewheeling weekend gathering that features an eclectic collection of items. “It’s a very international market. You’ll hear every language under the sun,” Warriner says. “You’ll find everything from vendors selling fruits and vegetables to mom and pop trying to sell old appliances. My favorite thing is that they have an old-time stand where they make fresh lemonade. Every time we go, I have to stop there.”
Ivey Lane Park is located on Silverton Street in Malibu Groves.
