1,000 homes in Lake County with a perfect 5.0/5 resident rating — the same score as SummerGlen in Marion County. Built from 1999 to 2017, giving a wider home age range than Ocala Palms but still a mature resale market. No golf on-site. The perfect rating reflects management quality, HOA governance, and community culture.
Legacy of Leesburg and SummerGlen are the two perfect-rated communities in the broader Ocala market. Both are non-golf communities where the rating comes from people and management, not amenity scale. Buyers who want the highest resident-validated quality of life at a mid-tier price point in Lake County should put Legacy on the touring list.
Lake County property tax applies. At $200K–$400K price range with Homestead exemption, annual tax runs approximately $1,300–$2,800/yr. File with Lake County Property Appraiser by March 1. The Florida Homestead exemption removes $50,000 from assessed value and the Save Our Homes cap limits annual increases to 3%. File by March 1 of your first year as primary resident.
HOA fee not confirmed from primary source — verify directly with Legacy of Leesburg HOA. Estimated at $130–$180/mo based on comparable Lake County non-golf communities. Lawn care inclusion varies by section — verify per parcel.
All figures are estimates. Verify HOA fee, tax rate, CDD status, and insurance for the specific parcel before purchase.
