Groves, unbeatable for city proximity

One of several small neighborhoods that make up the network of communities that surround the center of Port Orange, Groves began real development in the late 20th century. "The location of Groves is key. You are so close to the city center and the beach. The housing inventory is always low because Port Orange has become a sought-after area. Good schools, low crime, and just out of the way of all the Daytona tourism," says Ann Manning, Realtor with Weichert Realtors, Hallmark Properties. Just 3 miles east is City Center Circle, the hub for all the community's annual events, while Daytona Beach is 9 miles away. Groves is bordered by a major thoroughfare that leads to some of the city's largest commercial districts, but shops and restaurants are within walking distance right outside the neighborhood.

Pond views and classic Florida homes in Groves

Lining the curved cul-de-sac on Sweet Grove Court and Royal Grove Lane are the smooth stucco exteriors and rounded archways above entryways to Mediterranean-inspired residences. Several small ponds are scattered throughout the neighborhood, often viewable from the backyard. Many properties have attached sunrooms, also called Florida rooms, coined for their commonality throughout the state. Residences in Groves were primarily built between 1980 and 1995, and many have been renovated for more modern interiors. "There are mainly older homes compared to the other areas with newer development," Manning says. Colony in the Woods, a planned subdivision within the community, has manufactured ranch-style homes featuring shingled roofs. Older manufactured homes sell as low as $75,000 to $120,000, while newer, larger homes sell between $250,000 and $320,000.

In Groves, you’ll find residential calm and quiet streets, nestled in a busy suburban district.

Essentials and local finds on Clyde Morris Boulevard

Outdoor and indoor recreation abound

About a mile away is Reed Canal Park, where residents play soccer or picnic on the multipurpose fields. The 30-acre park is also perfect for walking, jogging or cycling on the oak-tree-lined nature trails. Reed Canal has an enclosed dog park so four-legged companions can go off-leash. Since Groves is so close to the city center, many will find activities at The Port Orange Recreation Center – also called The REC. It's newly renovated and provides free events and programs to the community, such as youth and adult sports leagues. The connecting building of ArtHaus provides locals with art activities and classes.
