Why Live in Oakfield
Oakfield is a master-planned community in Parrish that is still under development. Once completed, it will feature thousands of homes built by D.R. Horton, Homes by West Bay, Ashton Woods, and others. Planned amenities include resort-style pools, playgrounds, walking trails, and private social clubs, contributing to an upscale, family-friendly atmosphere. The neighborhood is divided into two sections: Oakfield Trails and Oakfield Lakes, each with different builders and home styles. Homes in Oakfield are primarily New Traditional or Modern Transitional, many with attached, front-facing garages and wide driveways. Some subdivisions within Oakfield Trails are gated. Residents will enjoy proximity to shopping and dining along the expanding Moccasin Wallow corridor, with Market Walk at North River Ranch about 6 miles away, featuring a Publix and various restaurants. Ellenton Premium Outlets and downtown Bradenton's boutiques and eateries are within 15 miles. Planned amenities include separate clubhouses for each section, with The Grove in Oakfield Lakes offering a resort-style pool, splash pad, playground, and dog park, while The Harvest Club in Oakfield Trails will feature a restaurant, fitness center, resort-style pool with waterslide, racket complex, and central lawn with a playground. The highly rated School District of Manatee County serves local students, including Veterans Elementary School, Buffalo Creek Middle School, and Parrish Community High School. Oakfield is approximately 40 miles from Tampa and 30 miles from Sarasota, making it a car-dependent area with convenient access to major cities.
