Oak Creek is one of those neighborhoods that many people don’t even realize is there, and that’s part of its appeal. Just minutes from the Ellenton Premium Outlets and I-75, this gated community is small, private, and quietly established.
With only about 34 homes, Oak Creek has a different feel than many of the larger communities in the area. There’s less traffic, more privacy, and a genuine neighborhood atmosphere. At the center of the community is a scenic lake that attracts herons, egrets, and other Florida wildlife, while many homes back to wooded preserves that provide a peaceful natural setting.
The homes themselves are distinctive, featuring French Country and French Provincial-inspired architecture that gives the neighborhood a character all its own. Generous homesites provide plenty of outdoor space, whether you envision a pool, an extended lanai, or simply a quiet place to enjoy your morning coffee
Most homes offer spacious floor plans, high ceilings, and layouts designed for comfortable everyday living. The community is well maintained, HOA fees are reasonable, and there is no CDD fee.
