Location context

Olde Florida Lakes on the map

The map shows Olde Florida Lakes at Hidden Lakes Drive and the Olde Florida Lakes streets, Miramar Beach, FL 32550. The map uses the best available point or outline for orientation, not as a legal survey.

Two County Headers Define The Parent Community

Walton County stores Olde Florida Lakes as two adjoining recorded phases rather than one invented subdivision number. Phase I is family 30-2S-21-42320 and Phase II is family 30-2S-21-42321. The Atlas keeps those identifiers distinct while presenting one parent guide because the source master uses the shared community name and both official records preserve that phase relationship.

Phase I Records Sixteen Numbered Lots

The Phase I header says it was recorded in April 2000 at Plat Book 14, page 27 and covered Lots 1 through 16. Its exact parcel response preserves all 16 numbers without a gap. That is a recorded-lot census, not evidence that every lot has a completed home, current occupant, rental registration, insurance, utility service, or active listing.

Phase II Records Forty-Eight Numbered Lots

The Phase II header says it was recorded July 12, 2000 at Plat Book 14, page 45 with 48 lots. The parcel family preserves Lots 1 through 48. Lot 21 begins with the plural wording LOTS 21, but its key, phase family, assessment code, and complete sequence show that it remains one numbered record rather than a missing or additional lot.

The Two Phases Keep Their Own Recorded Numbers

Phase I and Phase II have separate header parcels and separate subdivision families. The guide never collapses them into a fictitious parent plat number. Dates, parcel totals, common records, and map geometry are reconciled within each phase before any combined figure appears, preventing one phase from silently supplying facts that belong only to the other.

Phase I Contains Seventeen Parcel Features

The exact Phase I response has 17 feature entries, 17 object identifiers, and 17 unique parcel references. Sixteen are numbered residential records and one is a separately keyed common record. Lot 16's first legal line omits the word Olde, but its family, Plat Book reference, and place in the complete 1-16 sequence keep it inside the Phase I census.

Phase II Uses Multiple Features For One Common Key

The Phase II response has 52 feature entries but only 49 unique parcel references. Forty-eight keys are numbered residential lots. The remaining common key is stored as four geometry components with separate object identifiers. Those four rows describe one repeated key, not four common parcels, extra lots, homes, owners, association members, facilities, or development rights.

Combined Counts Preserve Rows Keys And Lots Separately

Across both phases, the County service returns 69 parcel entries, 66 unique parcel references, 64 numbered residential keys, and two phase-specific common keys. Each number answers a different administrative question. The Atlas reports 64 recorded numbered lots only; it does not convert the count into houses, households, occupants, rentals, licenses, memberships, listings, or buildable sites.

Single-Family Is An Assessment Description

All 64 numbered records currently use assessor code 000100 with description SINGLE FAM. That classification helps reconcile the parcel census, but it is not an architectural survey, certificate of occupancy, zoning determination, permit history, condition report, rental authorization, insurance finding, or promise that every parcel is improved in the same way.

Each Phase Has Its Own Common parcel reference

Phase I and Phase II each contain one 000900 / RES COMMON parcel reference. Phase I stores its key in one feature; Phase II stores its key in four. Legal wording references common areas, roads, and easements shown on the respective plats. Current deeds and governing instruments, not the feature count, control ownership, maintenance, access, parking, insurance, and private obligations.

Acre Fields Do Not Establish A Community Total

Most residential legal-acre fields are zero, while only a few numbered records carry small nonzero values. The common rows show zero legal acres even though GIS-calculated areas exist. Summing either field would mix incomplete legal attributes with mapped measurements. No total, average, surveyed, maintained, usable, association-owned, or developable community acreage is published.

The Address Service Supplies An Independent Census

The exact address response has 70 feature entries and 66 unique parcel references. It contains 65 assigned residential address entries across the same 64 numbered parcel references, plus five NO ADDRESS ASSIGNED entries for the two common keys. That close independent reconciliation supports identity and location without turning address-service rows into a dwelling, occupancy, or delivery count.

Sixty-Four Residential Keys Produce Sixty-Five Addresses

One residential parcel reference has two assigned County address points, so 65 assigned entries still reconcile to 64 recorded lots. The guide keeps parcel-key and address-row totals separate. Neither total establishes the number of structures, legal dwelling units, current utility accounts, residents, guest occupancy, rentable properties, parking spaces, or market listings.

Phase II Lot Five Has Two Assigned Address Points

Phase II Lot 5 is the only numbered key with multiple assigned rows: 89 and 90 Hidden Lakes Drive. The County response does not explain which operational or historical condition produced the pair. The Atlas does not choose one as the community entrance, infer a lot split, claim two homes, or resolve the record without corrected official evidence.

Six Street Names Span The Two Recorded Phases

Phase I residential addresses use Hidden Lakes Drive and Hidden Lakes Circle. Phase II addresses use Hidden Lakes Drive, Lake Front Drive, Long Lake Drive, and Lake Point Drive. These names orient the recorded parcels but do not prove that a road is public, privately maintained, gated, open to visitors, available for parking, or included in any specific parcel's access rights.

County Addresses Place The Community In Miramar Beach

Every assigned numbered-lot address uses municipality Miramar Beach and ZIP 32550. The Atlas therefore uses Miramar Beach as the parent route and a privacy-safe street-level location rather than publishing a private house number as a community destination. Regional Destin marketing does not change the County municipality field or move the guide into the incorporated City of Destin.

The Exact Association Corporation Is Inactive

Sunbiz lists Olde Florida Lakes Owners Association, Inc., document N01000000326, filed January 16, 2001. Its current status is inactive, with an administrative dissolution event dated September 25, 2020 and annual reports listed for 2017 through 2019. Those facts identify a historical corporation; they do not establish current parcel coverage or governance terms.

Inactive Status Does Not Mean No Private Obligations

Administrative dissolution is not proof that recorded covenants, easements, maintenance duties, assessments, architectural controls, or successor arrangements disappeared. It also does not prove that every road or common area became public. The guide makes no community-wide HOA or no-HOA claim. Buyers should obtain current title work and property-specific governing documents before relying on private-rights conclusions.

County Owner Names Do Not Resolve Current Governance

The two common parcel references currently carry Tampa Financial company names, not the inactive association corporation's name. No reviewed official source connects those owner-name fields to present management, covenant enforcement, dues, road maintenance, lake care, insurance, access control, or association succession. The mismatch is preserved as an open diligence item rather than being forced into a governance narrative.

Lake And Pond Language Does Not Establish Use Rights

The community name and several street names create a clear lake-oriented identity, but names alone do not establish ownership, shoreline boundaries, water access, fishing rights, boating permissions, maintenance, drainage, stormwater function, flood conditions, or an amenity entitlement. No lake, pond, shoreline, common-area polygon, or private access point is published as a guaranteed Olde Florida Lakes feature.

Public Beach Access Remains A Separate Destination

Visit South Walton lists Miramar Beach Regional Beach Access at 2375 Scenic Gulf Drive. It is an off-site public facility with its own current rules and conditions, not an Olde Florida Lakes amenity. Proximity does not create a private easement, reserved parking, guaranteed walking route, unrestricted access, or any right attached to a particular parcel.

State Extracts Show No Exact Condo Or Timeshare Match

Fresh text scans of Florida's North Florida condominium extract and approved-timeshare project extract contain no Olde Florida Lakes match. That supports avoiding an invented condominium or timeshare identity. Negative name checks do not decide title, ownership form, lawful occupancy, rental eligibility, licensing, insurance, private covenants, or any parcel's present legal status.

Rental Building And Flood Questions Stay Property Specific

Walton County provides short-term-rental resources and building requirements for flood-hazard areas, but those process pages do not decide a selected parcel's registration, zoning, occupancy, parking, setbacks, elevation, flood zone, permit history, structural condition, utilities, insurance, or lawful use. Current agency records, inspections, title review, and governing documents remain necessary for address-specific diligence.

Nearby Guides Add Context Without Merging Identities

Leisure Bay, Holiday Shores, Emerald Waters Village, and Frangista Beach are nearby Atlas entries with their own evidence packages and canonical routes. They provide useful Miramar Beach context while remaining separate places. Olde Florida Lakes does not borrow their boundaries, associations, amenities, access rights, lot counts, street records, listing filters, or public-source claims.

The Precise Marker Remains Point Only

The marker [-86.383535, 30.390654] is the six-decimal midpoint of the combined official phase-header bbox and closely tracks the 64 residential address-key anchors. It lies inside Phase II; seven Phase I address points sit slightly outside that phase's source ring. The discrepancy is preserved, so no combined polygon, phase outline, parcel union, road, lake, entrance, survey line, or title boundary is published.
