Ready for Development lot in Lake Wales

Prime residential lot opportunity in Lake Wales, Polk County, located at 3175 Walk In Water Rd. Situated in a desirable area, this property offers convenient access to a nearby park (approximately 1.55 miles), Orange Grove Art Glass (0.93 miles), and highways (1.88 miles). The lot is located in Flood Zone A, a high-risk area with a 1/100 annual chance of flooding. Building will likely require elevated foundations, flood-resistant materials, compliance with local floodplain ordinances, and mandatory flood insurance, which can increase costs and permitting timelines. No wetlands detected nearby, allowing for full lot utilization without environmental buffers or mitigation requirements. Zoned A/RR (Agricultural/Rural Residential), the property supports low-density residential use (typical density: 1 unit/acre or lower), including single-family detached homes by right. Manufactured/modular homes are often allowed subject to conditions, and limited ADUs may be permitted due state law. Duplexes, townhomes, multifamily apartments/condos, and mobile home parks are prohibited without rezoning. Buyer should verify all zoning, setbacks, utility availability, and development requirements with the Lake Wales Planning Department. The property is available for a self-guided tour. Subleasing is not permitted. This lot is not available for rent or lease.
