Maitland, Florida

Maitland, Florida real estate homes and properties are located in the state's flourishing Orange County. The town has about 14,000 current residents and is situated merely six miles away from the metropolitan region of Orlando. As such, the community provides a sense of seclusion from the big-city lifestyle while still being close enough to enjoy the benefits of a burgeoning city atmosphere. For more variety and options, nearby towns include Kissimmee, Ocoee, Longwood and others that each have unique features and offerings for residents and visitors.

One of the things that Maitland real estate owners enjoy is the Enzian Theater. Located inside the city limits, this is the area's only full-time independent theater. It is a non-profit facility and is best known for being the host of the annual Florida Film Festival and other popular film festivals in the area. Theater-goers savor the unique atmosphere inside, too. Rather than sitting in the normal theater seats, visitors sit in chairs around tables while enjoying their favorite drink and menu items while the film is playing. The theater's motto – "Film is Art" – is portrayed in every aspect of what the Enzian participates in.

Maitland is also home to several other cultural opportunities for both residents and visitors. The Maitland Art Center is a great place to visit during the evening to take in some modern art from local and regional artists. The facility has also been listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. Other important buildings and facilities include the Maitland Public Library, RDV Sportsplex, Maitland Historical Museum and the Telephone Museum, just to name a few.

Another "claim to fame" that owners of Maitland homes enjoy talking about is the fact that the city's Little League team reached the semifinals during the 2005 Little League World Series. Although they were eliminated before the finals, Maitland residents still brag and boast about their team's performance when the subject is brought up in conversation.
