When the Lakewood Ranch master-planned development was initially platted, it did not extend to Sarasota County; that was proposed in 1996 and was later ratified with the creation of a Land Stewardship District that apportioned more than 10,000 acres closer to The Meadows, University Park, and Fruitville. Waterside is the first Lakewood Ranch project developed entirely in Sarasota County; although it is technically a village, its considerable acreage and overall planning make it feel like a suburban district.
LakeHouse Cove Lakewood Ranch is a gated gated community that began construction in 2017 and has been developing in tandem with Waterside Place, the district’s lakefront town center. The main developers, Lee Wetherington and Homes by Towne, have a solid reputation as luxury home builders in Southwest Florida, and this can be appreciated across the community.
The location of this upscale neighborhood makes it very attractive to house hunters who prefer to be close to Downtown Sarasota and the beaches of Siesta Key. LakeHouse Cove Lakewood Ranch is south of University Parkway and west of Lorraine Road; it surrounds Lake Mallard and Lake Ibis, and it is a 30-minute drive away from Siesta Key Beach. The Mall at University Town Center is just 10 minutes away, and Main Street Lakewood Ranch is even closer; this is an excellent location for anyone who loves suburban convenience and quality of life.
Of the 626 home sites in LakeHouse Cove Lakewood Ranch, quite a few are lakeside properties with great water views; these are the Homes by Towne’s Clipper and Catamaran series. Lee Wetherington is building the Cruise series, which also consists of lakefront homes. Luxury waterfront properties always sell quickly because of their guaranteed value appreciation; keep this in mind when browsing the available new construction listings at LakeHouse Cove.
The top-notch amenities of LakeHouse Cove Lakewood Ranch include a lakefront recreation center complete with a boat house. This is where you can relax at the Sunset Lawn or the poolside spa. You and your guests can enjoy a fitness center, pickleball courts, a playground, a fire pit, two dog parks, and lakeside picnic areas.
