Lake Charleston Foreclosure :

Who, looking for a place to live in Florida, hasn't heard of Lake Charleston? To put it simply, Lake Charleston is an absolutely massive Lake Worth master-planned community. Centex constructed the community from 1989 to 2002. No less than 220 lakes provide the focal point for each portion of the community. Other communities -- most in fact in Florida -- use lakes and ponds to enhance the natural beauty of the area and provide residents privacy. In the case of Lake Charleston, five of its 220 lakes are made for fishing. Freshly stocked with fish, many other communities in Florida can't claim this level of exclusivity.

Home styles include villas, town homes and single-family. Prices range from $200,000 to over $500,000, and the selection from 2,300 residences located in 23 subdivisions backs these prices up. The size of homes ranges from 2,300 to 4,500. Each is the epitome of luxury, meant to live up to the Lake Charleston name.

Lake Charleston spares nothing when it comes to amenities for its residents. Definitely this community takes "master planned" to a new level. Staying active in Lake Charleston is easy because it includes two of each of the following: basketball courts, volleyball courts, tennis courts, and swimming pools. Children have the opportunity to enjoy three playgrounds and of course Lake Charleston Park. This park features: three single table picnic areas, a children's play structure, restrooms and four lighted softball fields. When residents want to take a trip outside their community and surrounding areas, Palm Beach County has miles of beaches to offer, perfect for any outdoor occasion.

Lake Charleston is served by the Palm Beach County School District. Nearby schools include Manatee Elementary, Park Vista Community High School and Christ McAuliffe Middle School.
