About 12085 Sandy Shores Drive
Virtually Staged. **SANDY SHORES SANCTUARY** A rare 1934 Windermere Landmark on the Butler Chain of Lakes. Rich in history and timeless charm, this one-of-a-kind canal-front home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Old Windermere. Privately nestled beneath a canopy of oak trees in the exclusive Sandy Shores enclave, one of Windermere's most private waterfront communities, this 5-bedroom, 3-bath residence offers direct canal access to Lake Butler. Blending historic charm with modern comfort, the home has been thoughtfully updated with a remodeled kitchen and bathrooms, 2024 HVAC systems, a 2017 roof, 2021 & 2017 water heaters, a 2020 septic drain field, and a 2026 well tank. Relax on the screened-in porch or waterfront deck while enjoying peaceful canal views, all with no HOA and just minutes from downtown Windermere, Windermere Preparatory School, championship golf, upscale dining, and Orlando's premier attractions. This is an extraordinary opportunity where history, privacy, and lakefront living converge.
