17707 SAWGRASS RUN, Tavares, FL, 32778 | $1,000,000

ISLAND LIVING AT ITS FINEST! While many can live on a lake, and others on a golf course, only a select few can enjoy both right in their own backyard! This exceptional 2+ acre property features approximately 164 feet of direct waterfront on the sparkling shores of Lake Dora, part of the renowned Harris Chain of Lakes. As one of the last remaining buildable lots with direct lake access, this is a rare opportunity to create your dream estate with no time limit to build. Previously listed as two separate parcels, the sellers are now presenting them together, providing an expansive homesite ideal for a larger estate home. From your backyard, take a quick 3-minute boat ride to historic Mount Dora, known for its charming boutiques, fine dining, and year-round festivals. The vibrant city of Tavares, "America’s Seaplane City, " is about 10 minutes away by boat. And with Orlando’s attractions and shopping approximately 45 minutes away, plus easy access to both the Atlantic and Gulf Coast beaches approximately 90 minutes away, this location combines serene island life and modern convenience. Nestled on Deer Island, a 400-acre natural island, this exclusive community is surrounded by Lake Dora and Lake Beauclair and is home to one of the nation’s finest golf destinations. The privately owned Deer Island Country Club boasts an awe-inspiring 18-hole championship course, recently recognized among America’s Top 50 Public Golf Courses and ranked #5 in Florida’s Top 25 Courses! While golf memberships are available, home ownership does not require membership, giving you flexibility to enjoy the lifestyle as you choose. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a prime waterfront lot in one of Central Florida’s most sought-after communities. Build your dream home and experience the best of lakefront, golf course, and island living—all in one place!
