The Preserve at Sundance is a single-family home community in the Sundance area of Mulberry, in the Fuller Heights part of Polk County, with a Mulberry mailing address and ZIP 33860 (multiple Polk County real estate listing guides, 2026). Listing guides describe it as an established neighborhood generally built in the early to mid 2000s, so the homes are settled rather than new.
Home sizes run roughly from the low 1,300 square foot range to the mid 3,000s according to listing guides, a mix of smaller and midsize single-family homes on standard suburban lots. Confirm the exact square footage, bedroom count, lot size, and year built for any specific home, since an established community has a real spread of plans and conditions.
Because the neighborhood is established, the money is made or lost on the individual home and lot, not on a builder package. The drivers are the roof age, the heating and cooling system, the kitchen and bath updates, the lot position, and the HOA picture, all of which have to be read from the listing, an inspection, and the association documents for the exact address.
The pitch is a value oriented Polk County address with a settled feel: the community sits in the Mulberry, Bartow, and Lakeland triangle, so the commute and the everyday errands depend on which of those you point toward. The work is the diligence: read the inspection, confirm the HOA dues and any CDD, and verify the school assignment by address before you buy.
