Retire between lakes and golf courses in Lake Lucerne
Situated around the neighborhood’s namesake, residents of Lake Lucerne are never far from the water, with lakes surrounding the housing developments. “The draw with Winter Haven is that it’s part of the chain of lakes,” says sales agent Christina Maurais with CRF Resales. “It’s a beautiful environment with plenty of opportunities for outdoor activity.” In Lake Lucerne, residents can enjoy the water on boats, or residents living in the retirement communities can golf at private courses. Downtown Winter Haven is just a few miles away, so Lake Lucerne residents are close to annual events and excellent restaurants.
Mediterranean-style homes and retirement communities
Lake Lucerne has multiple subdivisions. In the Lake Lucerne subdivision by the central lake, people can find New Traditional stucco houses on open streets with minimal landscaping or trees. In Royal Hills, pastel Mediterranean-style homes with rounded arches and features sit on landscaped lots with plenty of lush green and flowering plants. Style and personalization set homes apart, so each one is unique. Retirees can settle into one of Lake Lucerne’s retirement communities. In developments like Hidden Golf Club and Swiss Golf and Tennis Club, residents can enjoy a gated community with a private golf course. Residents here may be retired, but the communities’ active social calendar and clubs keep people busy and connected. Homes in the subdivisions tend to list between $325,000 and $350,000, though homes in the retirement communities will peak around $175,000 and list for much lower. “It’s so much cheaper than living on the coast,” Maurais says. “Life is just good here in Lake Lucerne. Once you see it, you don’t want to leave.”
Lake Lucerne subdivision offers homes from 1,500-3,000SF floor plans.
Home values are very reasonable in Lake Lucerne with property values in the low to upper 100K's.
