Lakewood Ranch provides all of the essential elements for a wonderful life: beautiful homes, great schools, medical facilities, convenient shops, job opportunities, commercial prospects and places to play and have fun with neighbors and friends.
Lakewood Ranch encompasses over 5,000 homes within five residential villages, each with its own neighborhoods and unique amenities. Business centers known as Town Center, Corporate Park, and Commerce Park total over 3,000,000 square feet of commercial office space. All areas are conveniently located in close proximity to international airports, I-75, and major roads within the Lakewood Ranch community.
From preschool through college, Lakewood Ranch residents and their families enjoy quality learning facilities within walking distance of their homes including five of the county's best public schools. The Out of Door Academy (a well-known private school), Manatee Technical Institute (MTI), Manatee Community College (MCC) and the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine (LECOM) are located within close proximity to residential neighborhoods. In addition, the University of South Florida (USF) and New College are located in Sarasota within 15 miles of the Lakewood Ranch area.
With half of the land set aside for recreation and open space, the selection of activities at Lakewood Ranch is virtually endless. Championship golf courses, a private membership club, neighborhood lakes, community parks and nature preserves offer many opportunities for outdoor fun. Included in this unique environment is the region's most extensive trail system with more than 100 miles for residents to enjoy walking, jogging or biking throughout the community.
Lakewood Ranch is located on the county line of Sarasota and Manatee counties on Florida's west coast. Its proximity to I-75 (exits 213, 217 and 220) makes it the perfect location to reach other Florida destinations north, south, east or west with easy access to two international airports and two seaports.
