Virtually Staged. Owner/developer is swamped with other projects currently... BOAT INCLUDED IN PURCHASE PRICE: Recent appraisal $1.6M. Although the value is heavily weighted towards the land this home is move-in-ready. A $3.5M modern home has been approved for building and permits are in place but the buyer has the flexibility to leave the house as-is, renovate it, build the already approved home, or bring their own builder to build their dream home.  Positioned along the coveted Butler Chain of Lakes, this waterfront residence offers an exceptional opportunity in the Town of Windermere.
Boasting approximately 65 feet of private frontage and a dedicated boat dock, the property captures sweeping views across Wauseon Bay.  The current home is in good condition and ready to move in. The interior showcases a refined yet comfortable cabin style with some modern flair and a open-concept layout, four bedrooms and thoughtfully updated living spaces. A beautifully appointed kitchen features custom cabinetry, quartz surfaces, and premium appliances, while restored hardwood flooring adds timeless character throughout. The primary suite opens to a private balcony overlooking the water, creating a serene retreat. Outdoors, the property offers a fenced yard and a rare combination of circular driveway and rear-access garage. Just moments from Windermere's parks, tennis courts, farmers market, and private boat ramp, this home embodies the charm and lifestyle of lakefront living in one of Central Florida's most desirable communities.
