Lake Butler Estates sits in the heart of Windermere's lake country, where oversized lots and generous homes trade the density of subdivision life for room to breathe. It shares a zip and a rhythm with names like Keenes Pointe and Isleworth, and puts you a short drive from the theme-park corridor — Universal Orlando is about 22 minutes out, Walt Disney World roughly 28, and downtown Orlando around 27.
For a buyer today, this is a thin, high-end market that rewards patience. There are just three active listings, with a median list price of $1,775,000 and homes ranging up to $3,800,000, and the median listing has been sitting for 142 days. When homes do sell, sellers hold their ground — the two closings over the past year traded at a median of $2,850,000 and averaged 98% of asking, so serious offers matter more than lowball testing. Buyers comparing options across Windermere homes for sale will find this a quieter, larger-lot alternative to newer neighborhoods like Summerport.

Lake Butler Estates FAQs
Is Lake Butler Estates a good place to live?+
It's a quiet, large-lot pocket of Windermere's lake country, close to established communities like Keenes Pointe and an easy 27-minute drive to downtown Orlando. Homes are assigned to Windermere Elementary, Gotha Middle, and Olympia High. The low $42-a-month HOA and spacious lots suit buyers who want space over amenities.
Is Lake Butler Estates expensive?+
Yes — this is a high-end corner of Windermere, with a median list price of $1,775,000 and listings reaching $3,800,000. The two homes sold in the past year closed at a median of $2,850,000. Compared with newer neighborhoods like Summerport, you're paying for larger lots and lake-country address.
What do homes cost in Lake Butler Estates?+
Active listings currently range from $1,630,000 to $3,800,000, with a median around $1,775,000 and pricing near $684 per square foot on a typical 3,135-square-foot home. All three active listings are above $1M, and two include pools. It's a small inventory, so what's available shapes the numbers heavily.
How is the market right now?+
It's a low-volume, patient market — just three homes are active and only two sold over the past 12 months. The median listing has been on the market 142 days, but sellers still averaged 98% of asking when they closed. That tells you prices are firm, and buyers should come with realistic, well-supported offers.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
The HOA is modest at a median of $42 per month, which is light for Windermere homes for sale at this price tier. Property taxes are the bigger line item, running a median of about $13,909 per year — in line with homes valued in the seven figures. Budget for the tax bill more than the association dues.
