Quiet residential enclave north of Downtown Naples

The tranquil waters of the Gulf of Mexico nearby provide a steady tempo for life in Lake Park, one of Naples’s oldest neighborhoods. The palm-tree-shaded residences serve as a great home base to explore some of Naples’s finest attractions and natural wonders. “People come primarily for the location itself,” says Blair White, Realtor with John R Wood Properties, Christie's International. “You’re half a mile to Downtown Naples, 1 mile to the beach and have access to a great school zone.” Year-round residency is more common than in surrounding neighborhoods as community events and local eateries encourage homeowners to stick around.

Green spaces and botanical gardens

Residents are surrounded by city parks and expansive green spaces. Fleischmann Park serves as the hub for recreation and features numerous sports facilities ranging from lighted baseball diamonds to court sports and soccer fields. Across the street, The Naples Zoo at Caribbean Gardens is home to about 70 species of animals, including African lions, Malayan tigers and the local Florida panther. The zoo also features a botanical garden, and admission is free for Collier County Residents on the first Saturday of each month. The Gordon River Greenway is a 140-acre nature trail that runs parallel to the neighborhood and winds through the lush Florida landscape and winding canals of the Gordon River. Many residents walk or bike to the beach as the lapping shores of Naples Beach are under 2 miles away.

Classic ranch-style houses and coastal contemporary builds

The neighborhood was initially developed in the 1960s, with towering palm trees shading classic ranch-style homes. While the midcentury builds remain scattered throughout, renovations have become commonplace. “There are just over 520 homes in the neighborhood, and empty lots alone sell for a million,” White says. “There are lots of teardowns and remodeling.” These remodeled homes feature coastal contemporary and ultra-modern design elements with large glass facades and brightly colored exteriors. Most houses have backyard pools, and some come with lakefront views. There is no HOA, which is a rarity for Naples. Prices for older builds range between $1 million and $2 million while larger, lakeside houses can top $4 million. The area is prone to hurricanes, with associated risks of flooding and wind damage. Updated building codes have provided protection in recent years, but homeowners are encouraged to research Flood Insurance policies and other safety measures.

Head to Lake Park Diner

Lake Park Diner is an award-winning neighborhood staple that operates under the mantra “The Diner with a Conscience.” The restaurant serves organic casual eats like sandwiches, salads and weekend brunch. The Coastland Center anchors commercial activity and features over 130 shops and restaurants. Visitors can also catch a movie at the adjacent CMX CinéBistro Coastland. While there is ample shopping and dining within the neighborhood, residents enjoy traveling into the vibrant areas of downtown Naples. “Most people take their golf cart or bike to Fifth Avenue South for all the fine dining,” White says. The historic avenue is lined with boutiques, art galleries and upscale restaurants such as Vergina and L’Olivo. Wynn’s Market and Publix provide the neighborhood with weekly groceries. Riverchase Dermatology is one of numerous medical facilities in the area.
