Wildwood, located between Keystone Road and the Lake Tarpon shoreline, is a residential and lakeside Keystone neighborhood with winding oak-canopied lanes and a patchwork of docks and boat lifts. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Keystone Road corridor near the Lake Tarpon access points, where bait-and-tackle counters, marinas, and low-key waterfront stops set the pace. Architectural cues lean Florida-ranch homes and newer rebuilds, many oriented to water views and outdoor storage. Daily rhythms track sunrise paddles, pontoon traffic, and evening walks under tall pines. Green edges and canal cuts shape the geography, keeping the landscape front-and-center.

PD
Planned Development District
The PD District is intended to be used when unified, large scale, mixed use developments are proposed in areas lacking a predominant urban/suburban development pattern and adjacent land use compatibility is not a significant factor. Broad, general concept plans would be permitted with limited flexibility to accommodate land use changes in response to evolving market conditions.
