About Enclave at Windermere Landing
Enclave at Windermere Landing sits in the central 34786 corridor of Windermere, just south of the Conroy-Windermere Road / Down Pointe corridor and within the Windermere Landing master area. The "Enclave" portion is the small interior pocket of the larger Windermere Landing community — a distinction that matters for buyers because the two share an address and general identity but differ in lot size, price point, and proximity to lake access.
Homes here are predominantly single-family two-story residences on tidy lots, with stucco-and-stone elevations and tile or architectural shingle roofs typical of the mid-2010s Windermere build cycle. Unlike the larger Windermere Landing parcels that face or back to the Butler Chain, Enclave homes are interior — buyers choosing this pocket are typically prioritizing the Windermere school zone, the gated address, and a lower entry point over direct lakefront.
The character of the enclave skews family-oriented and quietly upscale rather than estate-grand. Buyers looking at Enclave are usually weighing it against newer Horizon West construction (more amenity-loaded but farther from Town Square), against established Windermere proper (more historic but no gated entry), or against larger Windermere Landing lots (more prestige but materially higher cost).
📊 Quick Facts
Publisher action: confirm the build-year window, total home count, and gated/non-gated status against current MLS and Orange County parcel records before publishing. Source data abbreviated the display name as "Enclave Wndrmr Lndng," which warrants a field-verification pass.
🏡 What Distinguishes the Enclave from Windermere Landing Proper
- Position: Interior pocket rather than lakefront frontage on the larger Windermere Landing parcel
- Scale: Small home count — measured in dozens, not hundreds
- Price band: Materially lower entry than direct Butler Chain lakefront in the parent community
- Address parity: Same Windermere 34786 ZIP and "Windermere Landing" identity
- Trade-off: Less lake, less land — more affordability and lower carrying cost

Enclave at Windermere Landing Location & Connections
Enclave at Windermere Landing sits in the central spine of Windermere's 34786 ZIP code, roughly midway between Town Square to the north and the SR 429 / Horizon West corridor to the south. The location balances three things buyers in this market often have to choose between: a quiet residential pocket, walkability of nearby commercial centers like The Grove at Isleworth and Cornerstone at Summerport, and reasonable access to the SR 429 western beltway for theme park, downtown, and airport commutes.
Because the enclave is interior to the larger Windermere Landing parcel, residents do not have direct Butler Chain frontage from their own lots. The nearest public Butler Chain access points are Fernwood Park (Lake Butler boat ramp) and R.D. Keene Park (Lake Tibet-Butler), both within a short drive.
🏘️ Adjacent Neighborhoods & Areas
- North: Glenmuir
- South: Casa Del Lago
- East: Windermere Landing (the parent community)
- West: Lifebridge Church campus (institutional land use, not a residential subdivision)
- Nearby school-zone peers: Tildens Grove and Estates at Windermere
Publisher action: directional borders should be confirmed against current parcel maps. The "Enclave" is a small interior pocket inside the larger Windermere Landing community, so directional adjacency is partially inherited from the parent community boundary.

🎓 Schools
Enclave at Windermere Landing is served by Orange County Public Schools. Based on the geographic position of the enclave between the Windermere Elementary cluster (to the north, including Glenmuir) and the Thornebrooke Elementary cluster (to the south, including Casa Del Lago), the most likely current zoning is one of the following:
- Elementary: Windermere Elementary or Thornebrooke Elementary (verify with OCPS)
- Middle: Gotha Middle or Bridgewater Middle (verify with OCPS)
- High: Olympia High School or West Orange High School (verify with OCPS)
Publisher action: school zoning is the single most-checked detail on a neighborhood page and the prior version of this page named "Sunset Park Elementary," which serves the Summerport / CR 535 corridor and is unlikely to be the correct zone for this address. Confirm current attendance zones with the Orange County School District before publishing. School assignments are subject to change.
Windermere Preparatory School (Central Florida's only IB Diploma private school) is a popular private alternative for families in this area.

How Enclave at Windermere Landing Compares
The honest pitch for Enclave at Windermere Landing is access at a lower entry point: Windermere 34786 address, gated entry, and the parent community's identity, without the lakefront premium of direct Butler Chain frontage or the carrying cost of an estate-scale lot. The comparison below frames the trade-off against two common alternatives buyers actually weigh in this corridor.
| Feature | Enclave at Windermere Landing | Windermere Landing (parent) | Newer Horizon West Communities |
|---|---|---|---|
| Position | Interior gated enclave | Includes Butler Chain frontage | Master-planned, mostly inland |
| Lot Size | Compact | Larger (lakefront parcels) | Compact to moderate |
| Home Vintage | Mid-2010s | Mixed | 2018–present |
| CDD Fee | No | No | Often yes ($1,800–$4,800/year) |
| Address Identity | Windermere 34786 | Windermere 34786 | Windermere 34786 (south end) |
| Butler Chain Access | Via public ramps | Direct frontage available | Via public ramps |
💡 Honest Value Proposition: Enclave at Windermere Landing is for buyers who want the Windermere 34786 address and the gated identity of the parent community without paying the lakefront premium. Buyers who must have direct Butler Chain frontage should look at the larger Windermere Landing parcels or established lakefront neighborhoods like Lake Down Estates or Eden Isle. Buyers willing to trade the "Town of Windermere" address for newer, amenity-loaded master-planned product should compare to Horizon West communities — but should price in CDD fees, which most newer southern communities carry and Enclave does not.

Enclave at Windermere Landing HOA & CDD Information
Enclave at Windermere Landing is governed by an HOA covering the small gated enclave. Because the Enclave is an interior pocket of the larger Windermere Landing community, fee structure and shared-amenity rights may interact with the parent community's HOA — buyers should confirm whether their dues include access to any Windermere Landing amenities or whether the Enclave fee is independent.
The neighborhood does not carry a Community Development District (CDD) assessment. This is a meaningful annual savings versus newer southern Windermere and Horizon West communities, where CDD assessments commonly run $1,800–$4,800 per year on top of HOA dues.

Please contact us and we will be happy to provide you with the current HOA fee, payment schedule, and direct contact information for the HOA management company.

📋 What HOA Fees Typically Cover
- Gated entry maintenance and access control
- Common area landscaping and irrigation
- Street lighting within the enclave
- Reserve funding for shared infrastructure
