Straight answers
Walk In The Water Lake Estates FAQs
Is Walk In The Water Lake Estates a good place to live?+
It suits buyers who want rural space and quiet over walkable convenience — think large lots and open Ridge-country scenery. You're still connected to Downtown Lake Wales for shopping and dining, and Walt Disney World is roughly 67 minutes away for the occasional outing.
Is it expensive to buy here?+
It's mid-range for the area: the median list price is $454,998, but the median sold price over the past year was $330,000, so actual transactions land lower than the asking numbers. Listings range from $289,000 to $650,000, giving you real room to choose based on lot and home size.
What do homes cost in Walk In The Water Lake Estates?+
Homes average about $220 per square foot on a median size of 2,088 square feet, and the current active price range is $289,000 to $650,000. Compared with nearby options like Country Club Village, you're generally paying for land and space here rather than amenities.
How is the market right now?+
It's a slow, low-volume market — 4 homes are active and 20 sold over the last 12 months, with a median 106.5 days on market. That said, sellers are still getting about 98% of their asking price, so well-priced homes do sell without deep discounting.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Costs here are light: the median HOA is just $17 per month and the median annual property tax is $1,124. That's a low ongoing burden compared with amenity-heavy communities like Lake Ashton, which is part of the appeal of this rural setting.
