Quiet residential community in Tamarac
Dotted by blue lakes and filled with greenery, Woodland Lakes lives up to its name. It’s a quiet residential community in Tamarac, Florida with single-family homes, townhouses, 55-plus communities and condos with scenic golf course views. Residents spend their days golfing at Colony West Golf Club, with two courses spread across the heart of the neighborhood, and dining at new or familiar restaurants. “It’s one of the up-and-coming Broward County neighborhoods,” says Carl Apollon, a former Tamarac resident and Realtor at La Rosa Realty Beaches who has been selling homes in South Florida for five years. “There’s a lot going on, like new businesses and restaurants.” Located between the Sawgrass Expressway and the Florida Turnpike, locals are well connected to South Florida cities for entertainment and nightlife.
Ranch homes from the ‘70s through the ‘90s
Woodland Lakes has a mix of single-family homes, townhouses and condos. Many of the homes are low-lying ranches built between the ‘70s and the ‘90s. They are neatly landscaped with short grass and tropical foliage and often come with attached garages or carports. Townhouses have Spanish-inspired detailing like stucco facades and red roofing. Condos overlook green golf courses speckled with blue lakes toward the center of the neighborhood. Many neighborhoods have homeowners associations and community amenities like clubhouses and pools. Single-family homes between two and four bedrooms range from $200,000 to $700,000.
