About this home
Build your dream home in the highly sought-after Water Ridge community in Lake Alfred! This prime .28-acre homesite is fully ready to build, offering an ideal layout with approximately 76 feet of frontage and dimensions of 76’ x 163’, providing ample space for a thoughtfully designed custom residence. Nestled within a beautifully maintained, gated community, this lot offers not only privacy and security but also access to an impressive array of resort-style amenities. Residents enjoy a stunning clubhouse, state-of-the-art fitness center, onsite HOA management, men’s and women’s saunas, and multiple sports courts featuring basketball, tennis, and pickleball across both Lake Alfred and Auburndale sections. Relax and unwind with access to two leisure pools and a dedicated lap pool, or take advantage of the three private boat docks for easy lake access. A boat trailer storage facility and five gated entries add to the convenience and exclusivity of this exceptional neighborhood. Whether you're building your forever home or a seasonal retreat, this is a rare opportunity to secure a premium homesite in one of Central Florida’s most desirable waterfront communities.
Local Insight
At $5 per square foot in a gated lakefront community with resort amenities, this is aggressively priced land, but you're paying $175 monthly HOA fees on a vacant lot with no improvements—that's $2,100 a year just to hold it before you build anything. The X flood zone designation is a major plus for financing and insurance costs, and Lake Alfred's I-4 corridor location between Tampa and Orlando offers decent growth potential, though the lot size at 0.28 acres is tight for most single-family builds and you'll want to verify exact buildability with the city before committing. If you're speculating on appreciation in a master-planned community or looking for a future teardown/rebuild scenario, this could work, but the per-square-foot price tag shouldn't distract from the ongoing carrying costs and what you'd actually be able to construct here.
