The defining fact here is newness combined with scale: homes average 2,475 square feet and all date to 2024, so buyers are getting size and current construction rather than character or established landscaping. No community amenities surface in the current MLS listings, so value rests on the homes themselves and the Lake Alfred location in Polk County.

The homestead share is very low at roughly 1%, which tells you most of these homes have not yet been claimed as primary residences - consistent with a community that just delivered. Pair that with zero active listings and an 18-day median time to contract, and the takeaway is clear: supply is thin and what lists does not sit.

With no active inventory and a fast clock on anything that does list, timing and access matter more than negotiation leverage. We track this 13-home pocket closely so you hear about a listing or resale before it's gone, and we'll give you a straight read on whether the square footage and $180-per-foot pricing actually fit your plan.
