Windermere is a small, charming west Orange County community with almost 3,000 residents, and is growing rapidly. The Windermere real estate architecture ranges from small homes to luxury estates and is surrounded by immaculate, sand bottom lakes. A neighborhood information search engine, Neighborhood Scout, selected the town as the No. 1 place in Florida for families with children and is highly sought out by those looking for a close- knit community atmosphere.
