Description of Property
Discover life in a private island community on beautiful Deer Island, where every day feels like a getaway. Surrounded by natural beauty, this 400-acre island rests between Lake Dora and Lake Beauclair, both part of the infamous Harris Chain of Lakes — offering a lifestyle defined by connection to the water, outdoor adventure, and a true sense of escape. This thoughtfully upgraded home blends modern elegance with the relaxed rhythm of island living — from gleaming quartz countertops and beautiful TILE floors to an open, light-filled layout designed for gathering, entertaining, and everyday enjoyment. The designer kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful, anchored by a striking quartz island that easily seats six. Premium KitchenAid stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse sink, and a shimmering glass tile backsplash create a space that inspires both everyday meals and lively get-togethers with friends and family. Beyond the kitchen, the living area opens effortlessly through triple sliders to an oversized screened lanai overlooking the peaceful golf course pond — the perfect spot to unwind after a day on the lake or enjoy sunset cocktails surrounded by the sounds of nature. The primary suite serves as a personal retreat, framed by bay windows with tranquil views and complemented by a spa-like ensuite featuring dual sinks, designer tile, and a walk-in shower lined in floor-to-ceiling tile. A freshly repainted exterior, epoxy-coated garage floors, and a private irrigation well reflect the care invested throughout the property. With a newer roof, A/C, and water heater (all 2022), this home offers the rare combination of style, function, and peace of mind. Located just minutes from downtown Mount Dora’s boutiques and cafés — and only a short boat ride from Tavares, “America’s Seaplane City” — Deer Island residents also enjoy boat slip rentals available through the Deer Island Golf Club. Perfectly positioned in the heart of Lake County, this community offers easy access to local hotspots while maintaining its private, island ambiance. And while you don’t have to be a golfer to love life here, enthusiasts will appreciate the award-winning, privately owned 18-hole championship course, recently named one of “America’s Top 50 Public Golf Courses”. Life on Deer Island is anything but ordinary — it’s vibrant, active, and refreshingly serene all at once. This property conveys with a complimentary one-year Social Circle Membership to the Deer Island Golf Club. *Save Big! 1% lender credit (based on loan amount) toward closing costs or rate buy-down.
