Nearly 100 home, builder lots sell in community in 2020

LAKEWOOD RANCH — Nearly 100 end-user home and builder lots have sold in 2020 in The Lake Club, within the master-planned community of Lakewood Ranch.

A statement says the homes and large lots in the village include features that appeal to homebuyers during the pandemic, such as spacious outdoor living areas, bonus rooms that can be converted into home offices and open floor plans with high ceilings. 

The newest enclave in the community, Genoa, has had 54 sales so far this year. It expanded to include four neighborhoods with three-, four-, and five-bedroom residences and over 20 floor plans ranging from 2,400 to over 4,000 square feet under air, the release states. 

Lake View Estates is 90% sold out. The enclave began with 68 lakefront estate homes, with seven remaining.

The community's amenities include six tennis courts, four pickleball courts and a tennis pro shop that opened this year as part of the tennis center. The village also has a private 20,000-square-foot clubhouse, a yoga lawn, children’s playground, fitness trail, dog park and sports courts, according to the statement. 

The Lake Club is a Tuscan-inspired, private club community of custom luxury homes. The Lake Club is one of 16 actively selling villages in Lakewood Ranch, a 31,000-acre, master-planned community straddling Sarasota and Manatee counties.
