A low-rise, two-story condominium complex built in 1989, Summer Lake presents a Key West–inspired gated community organized around a large 23-acre lake. The development is composed of walk-up buildings with two-bedroom floorplans predominating; layouts commonly feature vaulted ceilings, split-bedroom plans, main-level primary bedrooms, and first-floor entries. Interior finishes seen across units include updated kitchens with modern cabinetry and countertops, in-unit washer/dryers, walk-in closets, built-in storage, vaulted living rooms, and a mix of hardwood, laminate and tile flooring. Exterior character emphasizes relaxed, resort-style living: private patios or balconies with lake views, enclosed porches, decks and fenced ground-level spaces. Shared facilities are extensive for a low-rise complex and include a lakeside pool and hot tub, clubhouse, fitness center, tennis courts, basketball courts, playgrounds, barbecue areas, and walking/jogging paths that follow the waterfront. Parking is surface-level within the gated community; vehicle wash area is noted. The association generally allows rentals and pets, and association approval is required for purchases. The community’s location in Lauderdale Lakes places it near major highways (I-95 and the Turnpike), shopping and dining, with beach access roughly 15–20 minutes away, positioning the complex for both commuters and leisure-oriented residents.
