Older Lake Worth homes at lower price points are real, and worth a careful look. The name "Countryside Lakes" is the part the records do not back up yet.
Countryside Lakes in Lake Worth does not show up as a subdivision name in the local MLS. As of October 22, 2026, a search for "Countryside Lakes" in active status returns zero listings. Nearby subdivisions with Countryside in the name do exist, and none is confirmed to be the one you are asking about. Double-check the listing you are interested in.
Brian Wilder is a fifth-generation Palm Beach County resident, licensed since 1998. When someone asks about a community by name, my first job is to confirm the name is real in the records. Here it is not, so I will show you what the records do say and how to check the address you have in front of you.
Countryside Lakes in Lake Worth: what the records show
I searched the local MLS on October 22, 2026 for any subdivision with Countryside in the name, and for Countryside Lakes specifically. There are no listings named Countryside Lakes in active status. If a listing or an agent says "Countryside Lakes," ask which subdivision name and plat the address sits in.

Lucerne Lakes is mostly condominiums, so do not compare its prices with a single-family home without checking the property type.

What to watch out for on an older Lake Worth home
- Build year. Get the actual year for the address, not a decade guess. It tells you how old the roof, electrical panel, plumbing and air conditioning are likely to be.
- Lead paint. For a home built before 1978, the seller must disclose known lead-based paint hazards before you sign, and give you the EPA lead pamphlet. Buyers also get a 10-day window for a lead inspection, which can be waived. Source: U.S. EPA, epa.gov/lead/real-estate-disclosure, updated May 27, 2026.
- The word "Lakes." It may describe real water or just the name. Ask for the water feature in writing for the specific address, and check the flood zone for that address.
- Association. Ask for the dues, the budget and the reserve study before you offer. Taxes and insurance are separate costs, so get those quotes for the exact address too. Double-check the listing you are interested in.
- Inspection. Get a full professional home inspection on every purchase. On an older home, pay attention to the roof, the electrical panel, the plumbing and the air conditioning.
- Schools. Zoned schools depend on the exact address. Check the address at palmbeachschools.org.
Brian's Take
Most buyers hear a name, assume it is real, and start touring. I would rather you spend ten minutes confirming the subdivision name and plat first. If the name does not match the records, the price range you saw online may belong to a different community. Your next step is simple: send me the address and I will run it before you tour.
