1280 S Franklin Ave

Lakeshore is a low-rise, garden-style condominium community built in 1986 and composed primarily of two-story villa and townhouse-type buildings surrounding a central lake. Units are generally one-bedroom layouts in this representative dataset, with variations and some larger two- and three-bedroom models evident in listings; many units feature first-floor entry or split two-level plans. Interiors often include vaulted or high ceilings, living/dining open plans, walk-in closets, breakfast areas or bars, and a mix of shower-only and tub/shower baths. Private outdoor spaces are common — screened patios, balconies, porches, and fenced outdoor living areas that take advantage of water or landscaped views. Shared facilities emphasize recreational living: a gated entry, guarded access, clubhouse, multiple swimming pools (some heated), jogging/biking paths, playgrounds, basketball courts, and extensive guest parking. Storage units by entries and on-site laundry hookups are frequently mentioned. The community’s architecture is straightforward suburban vernacular with stucco façades, low-pitched roofs, and pedestrian-scaled walkways that connect residences to lakeside green space. Pet and rental policies vary by unit and association; many listings market investor-friendly terms and immediate rental eligibility. Situated minutes from major thoroughfares, shopping centers, and local amenities, Lakeshore targets a relaxed, water-oriented suburban lifestyle with easy access to regional destinations.
