Fairfield on the Tee is an established residential community in north Lakeland, off Carpenters Way near Wedgewood Estates Boulevard in ZIP 33809 (Movoto and neighborhoods.com community profiles, 2026). Community profiles date it to the mid 1980s and describe modestly sized residences, with listing guides citing floor areas roughly in the 1,100 to 1,600 square foot range; confirm the exact size, type, and bedroom count for any specific unit.
Sources describe the community as condominium and villa product, with condo listings marketed under the Fairfield on the Tee name (RealtyHop and Century 21 listing pages, 2026). Because product can mix condo, villa, and fee simple within or around a single named community, confirm on each listing whether the unit is a condominium, a villa, or a single-family home, and confirm what the association covers.
Because this is a condo and villa community, the money is made or lost on the association and the unit, not on the address alone. The drivers are the monthly dues, the reserve funding under Florida current condo safety rules, the insurance line, and the specific unit, exposure, and condition, all of which have to be read from the current association documents.
The defining context is next door. The 18 hole Wedgewood Golf Course closed in 2021 and was bought by a developer planning a large residential project on the roughly 129 acre site, with the Lakeland City Commission reviewing a revised plan of apartments, townhomes, and single-family homes through late 2025 (LkldNow, 2025). For Fairfield on the Tee that means the golf adjacency is gone, with construction and added traffic near term and new neighbors over time, so read the current plan and timeline before you buy.
