Lady Lake
Lake County's gateway to The Villages.
Lady Lake, Florida is a Lake County town of about 15,000 residents just south of Marion County and directly adjacent to The Villages' northern Spanish Springs area. It offers Villages-adjacent living at Lake County tax rates with a mix of all-ages and 55+ housing.
Lady Lake was the original gateway to what became The Villages. Today it still shares the Spanish Springs corridor and offers residents Villages access without the amenity-fee structure of homes inside The Villages boundary.
Golf-cart access to Spanish Springs, waterfront dining at nearby Lake Griffin, and quick trips north to Ocala or south to Mount Dora.
Non-Villages homes typically list between $265K and $335K. Water Oak and Orange Blossom Gardens offer 55+ options at lower carrying costs than comparable Villages inventory.
