About this home
In Windermere homes can be renovated. Locations like this cannot be recreated. Set on more than half an acre with tranquil water views and exceptional privacy, this beautifully renovated residence offers a lifestyle that’s increasingly difficult to find. Spend weekends boating on the Butler Chain of Lakes, enjoying a match of tennis or pickleball, or unwinding by your private pool as peaceful water views become the backdrop to everyday life. Just a golf cart ride from downtown Windermere’s beloved Farmers Market, waterfront parks, dining, and community events—and with Windermere Elementary and many of Central Florida’s premier public and private schools nearby—this is a home that blends convenience with an unmatched sense of place. Inside, thoughtfully reimagined interiors pair contemporary finishes with effortless livability, creating a turnkey home where the lifestyle is every bit as compelling as the home itself. Residents of The Willows enjoy an outstanding lifestyle with neighborhood amenities including walking trails, a playground, volleyball, basketball, tennis, and pickleball courts.

Extensively renovated with today's most sought after finishes and design elements and designed for both everyday living and elegant entertaining, the spacious floor plan features four bedrooms and three baths. The private owner's retreat is a true sanctuary, offering direct access to the pool area and peaceful water views. A grand dining room with soaring 12-foot vaulted ceilings creates a sophisticated setting for gatherings, while the inviting living room showcases beautiful outdoor vistas. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen flows seamlessly into the breakfast nook and family room, creating an open and welcoming space that extends to the covered lanai and pool area.
