Between nature and downtown Auburndale
Tucked between the Tenoroc Public Use Area (PUA) and Auburndale, Hamptons has a more private feel than downtown Auburndale, with quiet suburbs and a retirement community while still staying close to the area’s shops and historic district. Lakeland and Winter Haven, other larger towns in the area, are also close by, so Hamptons residents are well-connected and never short of activities and shopping. “In all these little communities, everybody’s got these little historic areas with little antiques and local shops,” says Broker Angela Worachek with eXp Realty.
Between Auburndale and Tenoroc Public Use Area, Hamptons is a quiet residential community.
When looking for quiet suburban living in Central Florida, Hamptons can be the right spot.

Affordable homes and retirement communities in Hamptons
Most homes in Hamptons are simple stucco ranches and bungalows. Streets here are often shaded with mature trees, some dripping with Spanish moss, over more narrow streets without sidewalks. The neighborhood is also home to The Hamptons Golf and Country Club Resort of Auburndale, a 55-and-up gated community with its own golf course and other amenities. The community features manufactured siding ranch homes with carports. When it comes to moving to the Auburndale area and Hamptons, Worachek highlights that affordability is a big draw. Most homes here list between 150,000 and 250,000 for a three-bedroom house. In the retirement community, properties list between 50,000 and 100,000. “When it comes to houses here, you definitely get more bang for your buck,” Worachek says. “It allows families to get in and invest in the future. You live in a house for two years, sell it and then move up. In Polk County, Winter Haven, Auburndale, it’s more realistic.”
