6568 Ilex Circle

Peaceful lake views and a truly central Naples address are a rare combination, and this Walden Oaks home has both. The home backs to one of the community’s large lakes, and the expansive Florida room, with space for dining, and the paver patio both look out over the water. Inside, tile flows throughout and plantation shutters dress the windows. The updated eat-in kitchen features quartz counters and new appliances (2026), and a formal dining room is ready for entertaining. The air-conditioned two-car garage opens into a flexible room that works as a mud room or a small home office. The practical updates are already done: PEX plumbing (2022), washer and dryer (2021), and roof (2013). Walden Oaks is quiet by design. Residents walk the paths beneath the oaks around the community’s lakes and enjoy an island pool, clubhouse, and tennis and pickleball courts. Low HOA fees include lawn, landscaping and irrigation. The home is about a mile from Barron Collier High School and close to shopping and dining. Old Naples, Fifth Avenue South, Mercato, Venetian Village, Artis–Naples and the Gulf beaches are all within about 15 minutes.
