1915 Buffum Lake Trail, Fort Meade, FLVideo Tour of 1915 Buffum Lake Trail, Fort Meade, FL.
34.41± acres with 8.78± acres of direct Lake Buffum frontage - offering expansive land, rich water views, and exceptional flexibility in unincorporated Polk County. This rare lakefront property provides wide-open space with direct access to Lake Buffum, ideal for fishing, boating, and enjoying peaceful waterfront scenery. The land is accessed from Lake Buffum Road via the private Buffum Lake Trail, delivering a quiet rural setting with privacy and natural beauty. Included in the purchase is a 1,152 sq ft mobile home with well, septic, and electric already connected, allowing for immediate occupancy or use as a base while planning future improvements. The property is mostly cleared and fenced, making it well-suited for pasture, agricultural use, outdoor recreation, or rural living with room to expand. With abundant acreage, the property offers ample space for outdoor adventures, recreational use, or long-term land investment. The location also benefits from convenient proximity to the Lake Wales Municipal Airport, providing accessibility while maintaining a tranquil, rural environment. The property may allow for very low-density residential, agricultural, or mobile home park use, with potential to build approximately one residence per five acres (buyer to verify zoning, density, and permitted uses with Polk County Planning & Development). Whether envisioned as a private lakefront homestead, recreational retreat, or future development opportunity, this property delivers scale, waterfront access, and flexibility - a rare offering on Lake Buffum.
