55-plus gated community with a campground lifestyle
Corkscrew Woodlands is a 55-plus gated community in Estero with a unique layout featuring homes on perfectly circular streets. About 40 homes comprise each circle, with gardens and recreation centers in the middle. The design creates communities within a community and makes it easy for neighbors to get to know one another. "If you've ever camped, you understand the lifestyle, and that's what you're buying into," says Candace Farmer, a Realtor with Local Real Estate who specializes in selling manufactured homes. "People drive around in their golf carts, and they play pickleball and swim together. It's a very active community." Along with a central lake, two communitywide rec centers offer additional resort-style amenities and provide spaces for residents to socialize and gather for special events.
Corkscrew Woodlands is a unique neighborhood nestled in the heart of Estero, FL.

Manufactured and contemporary homes on circular streets
The residential circles are populated with two distinct options: Some feature contemporary homes and others manufactured homes. The contemporary homes are primarily two-bedroom, single-story dwellings that offer about 1,000 square feet of interior space. There are a few plans that offer three bedrooms, and the largest of those are multi-level homes that offer up to 1,600 square feet. Driveways, attached garages and back porches are standard features. Prices range from the low $300,000s to the mid-$400,000s. The manufactured homes offer one- and two-bedroom layouts. "I call them mobile home cottages," Farmer says. "And what's nice is you don't lease the land. You own the home and the land for under $200,000, which is a huge bargain for this area." These homes typically range from $125,000 to approaching $200,000 for the largest two-bedroom models along the lake. Palm trees dot the community, adding a tropical touch, and residents enjoy plenty of wildlife sightings amid the natural landscape of southwest Florida. Residents receive a monthly newsletter called The Woodlands, which provides information about the community, including upcoming events, such as luncheons, dances and more.
