Summerfield Village - One of the Original Lakewood Ranch Villages

    The village of Summerfield, located just south of State Road 70 off Lakewood Ranch Boulevard, was one of the original villages when Lakewood Ranch was first established.  With the 27 acre Lake Summerfield in the middle of the village and the Braden River runs along the southern border of the village, residents are treated to some interesting viewing as well as boating and canoeing access.

    A family-oriented neighborhood with lots of recreational activities and events, Summerfield is made up mostly of single-family homes although there is one condominium development within the village. Most of the homes in Summerfield were built in 1995 with the most recent constructed in 2001 and 2002.       

    Young families appreciate the fact that the excellent elementary school, Willis Elementary School and Nolan Middle School are located within a comfortable walking distance of their homes.

    Another lure that attracts families to Summerfield is the pristine natural surroundings. There’s a 15-acre Summerfield Community Park with ball fields, open playgrounds, a picnic pavilion, lighted tennis courts and basketball courts.  Participating in other sports like soccer and football is likewise an attraction. The Summerfield village features its share of the 150 mile network of Lakewood Ranch nature trails for walking, biking, and jogging or leading you to fishing lakes in everything from isolated fishing holes to an expansive 160 acre fishing and boating stretch of water. 

    Resale homes in Summerfield range in size from about 1,300 to 2,500 square feet and range in price from the high $100’s to the $400’s offering prospective buyers some of the most affordable home options in the 8,500 acre master-planned Lakewood Ranch development.

    If not in Summerfield village, itself, you can be certain that there is a home or condo in the Lakewood Ranch community of nine "villages" or elsewhere in the Sarasota real estate market that will fulfill your every wish.  Contact me for more information on Summerfield or any of the many attractive communities and neighborhoods in the Sarasota FL real estate market including Lakewood Ranch, Bradenton, Longboat, Lido and Siesta Key.  For an immediate response, call me at 941-266-2512.  I'd be delighted to hear from you.

You are absolutely right in stating that Summerfield is a wonderfully family-oriented community. Families I've shown homes there have frequently bought soon thereafter and been thrilled with their choice of a neighborhood
