The Christina Subdivision in South Lakeland is marked by quaint neighborhoods with streets lined by beautiful and mature oak trees.  It is said to be named after the daughter of a phosphate mining business owner.  Opposite the 540A entrance is Christina Park which offers baseball fields, a paved walking trail, children’s playground and rentable pavilion.  Loyce Harpe Park, formerly called Carter Road Park, is located 3 miles to the southeast and offers the same amenities in addition to mountain biking trails, DiOgi dog bark and boating and fishing opportunities.

Christina’s many neighborhoods, such as Christina Woods and Christina Oaks, offer a full range of home sizes and pricing to accommodate every budget.  The square footage for homes starts around 1300 square feet and can go up to around 4000 square feet.  Pricing for single-family homes begins close to $150,000 for a 3 bedroom and 2 bath and tops out around $400,000 for larger 4 and 5 bedroom dwellings.  Additionally, Christina has Condo and Townhome options for those who need less space but long for the neighborhood life style.
