Redfin reports a Montverde median sale price of about $719,000 for the three months ending August 2026, which it shows as 59.8% higher than a year earlier. That jump comes from very few sales: Redfin counted 9 Montverde sales in August 2026 and 5 in August 2025. A few higher-priced sales can move the median a long way, so the change mostly reflects which homes happened to sell.
Days on market tell a similar story. Redfin shows a median of 50 days in August 2026 against 11 days a year before. With so few sales, a more reliable guide to a particular home's value is a set of comparable recent sales nearby. Kris can pull those comparable sales for any Montverde home you are considering.
What makes Montverde different
Green Hills on Lake Apopka
A settler from Vermont named the town for its rolling green hills, borrowing the Spanish "Monte Verde." The earliest record of American settlement here dates to 1865, when the area was called West Lake Apopka, and Montverde was incorporated as a town on May 18, 1925. The US Census Bureau estimates just 1,836 residents for July 2025.
- Lake Apopka: Montverde sits on the lake's southwest shore. Truskett Park, on the water, has picnic tables and grills.
- Green Mountain Scenic Byway: a 45-mile designated scenic route, named in 2004, that runs between Winter Garden and Mount Dora and passes through Montverde.
- Montverde Academy: a private preparatory school for primary and secondary students that opened in 1912.
- Bella Collina: a golf club community on County Road 455.
If golf is on your list, the golf communities guide covers the courses and communities around Clermont and Montverde.
Practical details
Roads and Public Schools
County Road 455 runs through Montverde; Bella Collina's entrance address is on it. For longer trips, drivers head south to SR 50 or Florida's Turnpike, so time the drive before you buy if you will commute toward Orlando.
Montverde Academy is private. Public school students in Montverde attend Lake County Schools, and the zoned schools depend on the address, so check with the district. Kris can confirm zoned public schools for any Montverde address.

Looking for a Montverde Home
Montverde listings will be added to this page only as the local MLS and Watson Realty Corp. rules allow. Because few Montverde homes come up for sale at once, it helps to tell Kris early what you are looking for: lake frontage, a golf community, acreage, or a smaller home in town.
