Why these guides exist

Lakewood Ranch sits in two counties, Manatee and Sarasota. Which county am I in?

Lakewood Ranch is a 35,000-acre master-planned community in Southwest Florida.

  • I could not find one honest page about the villages when we were looking. So I wrote them, one by one.
  • I walk these neighborhoods, and Gulf Coast Realty Media shoots the photos, so what you see is the real place.
  • No prices on the guides on purpose. Inventory moves daily, and I would rather give you real numbers for a real home.

Common questions

Which county is Lakewood Ranch in?

Both. Lakewood Ranch sits in Manatee County and Sarasota County, and each village guide says which one its village is in. Check it before you fall for a floor plan.

Which villages are still building new homes?

The villages index has a filter for new construction. It shows the villages where that fact is on record.

Can I search homes for sale here?

Yes. The search runs on my eXp Realty site and asks you to sign up there. Save what you like and we can talk it through.

Do I have to sign up to read the guides?

No. Every village guide is open. The only thing behind an email is the Family Guide, because it is a PDF I send you.

About the Family Guide
What is a CDD, and does my village have one?
