Property description
In the quaint town of Windermere there is a special place on Lake Bessie. Where every time you drive down the majestic lake roads lined with large trees you will get the occasionally hello or wave from your friendly neighbors. This traditional Florida home with a large screened in front porch has been enjoyed by the same family for over 43 years. Now its time for you to enjoy the cool lake breezes and breathtaking views Lake Bessie has to offer. The open floor plan offers plenty of space for entertaining or just relaxing in the comfort of your own home. The kitchen opens up to the living room with a breakfast bar and is equipped with stainless steel appliances and a natural gas range. The dining room with a cozy fireplace overlooks the koi pond with its own rock waterfall. The firepit in the backyard is a perfect place to trade stories and make s’mores together. Two bedrooms are conveniently located downstairs with their own bathrooms and closets. The master bedroom is spacious with panoramic water views of Lake Bessie including the golf course across the lake. Master bathroom has dual vanities, large shower, and a walk in closet. This home is ready for new memories to be made with plenty of lake days including fishing, paddle boarding, canoeing, skiing or whatever your heart desires. Notable upgrades within 5 years include a 50 year architectural roof, Carrier AC units, water softener, new flooring, drain field, and exterior & interior paint. The Town of Windermere is golf cart friendly, offers a weekly farmers market, monthly family food truck night, festive events, boat ramp access to The Butler Chain of Lakes, playgrounds, parks, walking trails, family owned businesses, is located within “A” rated schools, and close to area attractions. It offers the old Florida charm in an amazing location without the big town feel. Best kept secret in the heart of Orlando can be yours. Be sure to click on the virtual tour link.
