Quick answer

Wynwood Lakes is a lake-oriented single-family community in Sunrise, in Broward County — a centrally located, planned Broward city. Consistent with the name, it's built around a community lake — an inland Sunrise lake, not a coastal location. It fits a family that wants a settled Sunrise home. Because the name centers on the lake, the checks that decide the buy are whether the specific home truly backs to the lake or sits on an interior lot, the exact zoned schools for the address, whether the home is in an HOA and what it covers, and the specific home's condition.

I've sold homes across Sunrise and Broward County since 1996. Here's the honest version of Wynwood Lakes — the parts that matter, and the parts most listings skip.

What Wynwood Lakes actually is

Wynwood Lakes is a lake-oriented single-family community in Sunrise, Broward County. Consistent with the name, it's built around a community lake, and to be clear that's an inland Sunrise lake — a lake view, not a coastal or boating location. Sunrise is a centrally located, planned Broward city, and because a "Lakes" community's value hinges on the water, the story here is the specific house and, above all, whether it's actually on the lake.

The right buyer here is usually a family that wants a settled Sunrise home. The due diligence is specific: whether the specific home truly backs to the lake or sits on an interior lot; the exact zoned schools for the address; whether the specific home is in an HOA and, if so, its fee, coverage, and financials; and the specific home's condition. That's where I focus before you offer.

Pre-offer checklist for Wynwood Lakes

  • The lot — lakefront or interior: The name centers on the lake, but not every home is on the water, so confirm whether the specific home truly backs to the lake or sits on an interior lot — a real value difference. To be clear, it's an inland Sunrise community lake, a view rather than a coastal or boating setting, and I confirm exactly what the lot is rather than assuming from the community name.
  • The schools — verify by address: Schools are served by Broward County Public Schools, a separate district from Palm Beach County, and assignments are by address and can change, so verify the exact zoned elementary, middle, and high schools at browardschools.com for the specific home before any offer.
  • HOA or not — confirm which: Confirm whether the specific home is in an HOA, and if it is, get the fee, exactly what it covers, and the budget, reserves, and any pending or approved special assessments in writing. Where a home isn't in an HOA, city and county standards still apply, and I confirm the numbers from the documents rather than a listing sheet.
  • The specific home's condition: Confirm the roof, systems, windows, kitchen, and baths and any updates for the specific home, and price any work honestly, since condition sets the real number here more than the community average does.

The honest trade-off

Who thrives in Wynwood Lakes: the family that wanted a settled, lake-oriented Sunrise home — confirmed whether the specific home was truly on the lake before paying for the view, verified the zoned schools by address, confirmed the HOA status, and checked the condition with eyes open.

Who regrets it: the buyer who paid a lakefront premium for an interior lot, assumed the schools without verifying by address, didn't read the HOA terms, or overlooked an older home's condition. All knowable up front.

Honest alternative: if you want true boating or coastal access, that's a different search in a different part of Broward — this is an inland community lake, not that. But if a settled, lake-oriented Sunrise home is the goal, Wynwood Lakes is worth a serious look — I'll just confirm whether the specific home is truly on the lake, plus the schools, the HOA, and the condition, first. That's the job.

Wynwood Lakes FAQs

What kind of community is Wynwood Lakes in Sunrise?+
Wynwood Lakes is a lake-oriented single-family community in Sunrise, built around a community lake. Because condition and lot vary home to home, before any offer I look closely at the specific home — above all whether it's truly on the lake — along with its HOA status, schools, and condition, rather than going by the community name.
Are all the homes on the lake?+
No — despite the name, some homes back to the lake and some sit on interior lots, and that's a real value difference. To be clear, it's an inland Sunrise community lake, a view rather than a coastal or boating location. Before any offer I confirm exactly whether the specific home is on the water or interior rather than assuming from the community name.
What schools serve Wynwood Lakes?+
Wynwood Lakes is served by Broward County Public Schools, a separate district from Palm Beach County, and assignments are by address and can change, so before any offer I verify the exact zoned elementary, middle, and high schools for the specific home at browardschools.com rather than relying on a listing or a verbal confirmation.
Does Wynwood Lakes have an HOA?+
It depends on the specific home, so I don't assume either way. Before any offer I confirm whether the home is in an HOA, and if it is, I get the fee, what it covers, and the budget, reserves, and any pending special assessments in writing. Where a home isn't in an HOA, city and county standards still apply, and I confirm the numbers from the documents rather than a listing sheet.
What condition are the homes in at Wynwood Lakes?+
Condition varies home to home, so before any offer I confirm the roof, systems, windows, kitchen, and baths and any updates for the specific home and price any work honestly. Because condition sets the real number here more than the community average, I look closely at the specific house so you know what you're actually buying.
How far is Wynwood Lakes from a hospital?+
Wynwood Lakes is in Sunrise, with Cleveland Clinic Weston and HCA Florida Westside Hospital in nearby Plantation among the closest major facilities. I can give you real drive times from a specific home in Wynwood Lakes to the facility you'd actually use rather than map estimates.
