Metcalf Park lies between Lake Butler Blvd and South Lake Butler Blvd., truly “among the Lakes.” On the shores of the beloved Butler Chain of Lakes, Metcalf Park is a small community of approximately seventy-seven custom homes. The earliest residences date back to the mid 1950s, while development has continued quietly through the decades and continues today when an opportunity is available. Many homes are lakefront, and all enjoy private lake access, spacious lots, lush mature landscaping, and towering aged Oak trees. These homes are designed by various estate home builders where craftsmanship and attention to detail are the norm. With between three and six bedrooms, Metcalf Park homes offer custom upgrades in spacious estate designs. Striking central living areas fully utilize stunning lakefront views and secluded homesite features. Gourmet kitchens provide high-end appliances and loads of storage, while many homes offer multiple ensuites and even second or third primary bedroom suites. Buyers can find in-law cottages, games rooms, home theaters and gyms, and outdoor features like a private beach or custom boat house with an electric boat lift.
Windermere Recreation Area has three tennis courts, a picnic area, and a dock stretching out onto Lake Cresent and steps away along Park Ave. The Orlando Area Rowing Society is nearby, with competitive rowing opportunities for all ages. The charming downtown of Windermere hosts a weekly farmers market and a monthly food truck night. Nearby Winter Garden Village is a well-appointed outdoor shopping mall, and Plantation Grove Shopping Center, a short distance up Maguire Rd, is home to Publix supermarket, UPS, and other necessities. This area has golf courses, community parks, and popular local destinations like the YMCA and the West Orange movie theater.
