Why they chose this property
The Edgewater Beach neighborhood is quiet and established. Lake Parker is a haven for fishermen, bird watchers, and nature explorers. Very near to downtown Lakeland and it's many parks, historic districts and wonderful local restaurants and shopping.
What makes this property unique
Water's Edge has stunning views of Lake Parker and the home sits just feet away. It's peaceful and so relaxing. This is the exhale you needed.
Please be aware, Water's Edge is on the water's edge. You will be close to wildlife, including alligators. Important, do not let small children or pets near the lake. Be cautious during twilight and night time when wildlife can be more active.
Also, certain times of the year, lake front properties can have large hatches of midge flies, referred to locally as blind mosquitos. They are not mosquitos, and they don't bite, but can be bothersome. Water's Edge is sprayed regularly. This helps but large hatches can interfere with outdoor activity. We have just installed a big, beautiful screen enclosure over the pool area.
Lake life is beautiful. Watching nature close up is rewarding. Lake life comes with its own unique challenges. We want you to come to Water's Edge prepared, so you can have the best stay possible.
If you have any questions, please let us know. We would love to hear from you.
