Bungalow Walk at Waterside: Vintage Charm Meets Modern Lakewood Ranch Living

Welcome

Welcome to Bungalow Walk at Waterside, where vintage Americana charm meets the convenience of modern Lakewood Ranch. This distinctive Dream Finders Homes community offers a unique slice of nostalgic living with front porches and picket fences, all while providing the maintenance-free lifestyle that today's homeowners crave.

Neighborhood Character

Bungalow Walk stands as Waterside's most charming and distinctive single-family neighborhood. This thoughtfully designed community creates an intimate village atmosphere with its cozy neighborhood blocks and pedestrian-friendly streetscape. The narrow lots with alley access naturally slow traffic, making it perfect for families and creating an environment where front porch conversations and neighborly interactions flourish naturally.

Housing Options

As the name suggests, Bungalow Walk features exclusively single-family bungalows with distinctive architectural character. These primarily one-story homes range from 1,600 to 2,600 square feet, offering 3-4 bedroom configurations that cater to various lifestyle needs. Each home showcases craftsmanship details and coastal cottage facades, with many featuring detached or rear-loaded garages that enhance the vintage aesthetic. Dream Finders Homes brings fresh designs to Lakewood Ranch, ensuring these bungalows offer unique floor plans not found elsewhere in the area.

Pricing and Fees

Bungalow Walk represents excellent value within Lakewood Ranch, with homes starting in the high $500,000s and extending into the $700,000s. The median price typically falls in the low $600,000s, making it accessible to a range of buyers. Homeowners should budget for HOA dues of approximately $150-200 monthly, which includes the valuable maintenance-free living benefit covering lawn care. Additionally, there is a Community Development District (CDD) fee for the community infrastructure and amenities.

Amenities & Lifestyle

The community amenities focus on quality over quantity, featuring a cozy clubhouse and a modest pool that serves as a perfect relaxation spot without overwhelming resort-style features. Families will appreciate the tot lot designed for children's enjoyment. The standout feature is the maintenance-included lifestyle, where lawn care is professionally managed, allowing residents the freedom to travel or simply enjoy their time without yard work concerns. This rare combination of single-family living with maintenance inclusion typically isn't found outside of 55+ communities.

Location Advantages

Bungalow Walk enjoys a prime position in Waterside's northern section, offering exceptional connectivity throughout the region. Located just off University Parkway and east of Lorraine Road, residents benefit from:

• Immediate access to Waterside Place shopping and dining

• 10-15 minutes to University Town Center area shopping

• 25-minute drive to downtown Sarasota via Fruitville Road

• Close proximity to highly-rated Sarasota County schools

• Easy connection to Waterside Park and extensive trail system

• Quick access to University Corridor businesses and services

This strategic location combines neighborhood tranquility with urban convenience, making daily errands and weekend adventures equally accessible.

Local Conveniences

Living in Bungalow Walk means enjoying the best of Lakewood Ranch's amenities and attractions. Residents have full access to the larger Waterside Park and trail systems, connecting them to the broader community. The popular Waterside farmers market every Sunday offers fresh local produce and crafts, perfect for decorating those charming front porches. The University Corridor provides diverse dining, shopping, and professional services, while the UTC area expands options for entertainment and major retailers.

Unique Value Proposition

This creates a distinctive aesthetic reminiscent of historic Sarasota or Charleston neighborhoods but with modern build quality and contemporary conveniences.
