Another outstanding feature is the home's leased solar energy system, helping reduce monthly electric expenses and providing an opportunity for energy-conscious Florida living. Lease terms and utility savings are available for review. Woodlawn Lakes is one of the area's established residential communities, known for its spacious homesites, mature landscaping, peaceful surroundings, and exceptionally affordable association fees. With just $7 a month in HOA dues and no CDD, you can enjoy the benefits of an established neighborhood without the substantial monthly fees often associated with newer developments. Location is another major advantage!
