Winding through Willow Oaks
The Willow Oak neighborhood, a suburb of Lakeland, Florida, “is a quiet neighborhood, and homes generally come with more land,” says Stephanie Meyer, Realtor with Keller Williams, who has sold houses in the area for eight years. Streets in the neighborhood wind in a maze-like fashion around lakes and wetlands. Along Bailey Road, statuesque live oaks adorned with Spanish moss line the road, and large, masonry vernacular residences sit tucked behind them. Further into the labyrinth, there are streets of two-to-three-bedroom manufactured houses behind chain-link fences interspersed with colorful 3,000-square-foot bungalows or pockets of homes within planned communities. Area schools have unique electives for Willow Oak students, and there are several nearby parks to explore.
Lakefront homes just above $500,000
Listings in the area begin in the low-to-mid $200,000 range. At this price, buyers can usually find single-story manufactured homes or ranch-style homes in need of repair. Homes at the upper end of the spectrum are often 3,000-square-foot lakefront residences with transitional-style architecture listed in the low-to-mid $500,000s. “The area has a good mix of homes,” Meyer says. The median price is around $315,000; for this, one might find a three-bedroom, single-story masonry home.
Master planned communities have been popping up in Willow Oak which gives resident the rural lifestyle with a modern flare.
With open floor plans and great place to gather with family and friends ranch style homes are a great option for Willow Oak buyers.
Oak Landing is a master planned community within Willow Oak and offers residents a gated community with ample house sizes.

Students in Willow Oaks may attend James W. Sikes Elementary School, which earns a C-plus on Niche. Mulberry Middle School, with a C rating, offers pre-academy options such as pre-business and pre-agriculture. Students can also participate in intramural sports. Mulberry Senior High School gets a B-minus and has robotics and medical academies. The academies and pre-academies are elective programs that allow students to learn about topics that interest them and explore future careers. Sports offerings at the high school include tennis, volleyball and wrestling. Lakeland has several colleges to choose from; students with an interest in architecture may enjoy learning at Florida Southern College, which is about 9 miles away. The campus is home to the largest collection of Frank Lloyd Wright-designed structures in one area.
Take Florida State Road 37 to Lakeland
“The neighborhood is very close to Shepherd Road and shopping,” Meyer says. Locals also have close access to Florida State Roads 37 and 60, which lead to downtown Lakeland and Tampa, respectively. There are Citrus Connection bus stops along Shepherd Road and Bailey Road that run from 8:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. on weekdays and from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Saturdays. Lakeland Linder International Airport, 7.5 miles north, is planning to offer passenger flights with Avelo Airlines. Avelo has six airport bases, including Los Angeles and New Haven, Connecticut.
Publix and pistachio muffins
“This area is loaded with places to go. You can get groceries at Publix. For lunch, you can go by Uncle Nick’s Italian Deli and Bagels. They have corned beef sandwiches and pistachio muffins as big as your hand that are to die for.” Meyer says. “There’s an iconic feed store on Old Road 37 called Lay’s Western Wear Feed & Pet Supply; they sell dog food for a better price than the pet store and have clothing too.” For more shopping, residents can drive to Lakeside Village, a shopping mall that is about 6 miles north.
Publix Supermarkets is a Florida institution, and one that Willow Oak residents frequent often for their groceries.
With an array of shopping and dining Village Plaza offers Willow Oak residents with ample options.

Alafia River Reserve has 334 acres of nature to explore
If Willow Oaks residents want to find lake access, a dog park, a soccer field or wetlands to explore, there are options for each within a 3-mile radius. The Alafia River Reserve, off SR 60, is a 334-acre conservation area that is home to tortoises and sweet gum trees. To find out why Lakeland is known as Swan City, locals can drive about 9 miles to Lake Morton. “You walk around the lake, and it’s like an outdoor aviary. You can bring food, and the birds will surround you. There are ducks, geese and swans. The swans originally came from the queen of England. There are picnic tables there, too, but you have to protect your food, or the geese will get it.”
Come and enjoy the natural beauty of nature at Alafia River Reserve located in Willow Oak.
Fuller Heights Park offers the kids of Willow Oak a place to escape and have fun.

Tasty Tuesdays and Festive Fridays are some recurring ones that feature local businesses, and there are also holiday markets and food truck rallies.

There are aerobatic performances and hot air balloon launches for spectators to enjoy.
