$3,198Pre-Construction. To be built. Not every dream home begins at the water's edge, but it can still end there. Deer Island is one of Central Florida's most coveted private islands, and this rare corner homesite is your invitation to build something extraordinary within it. Set on a generous quarter-acre corner lot, the property offers shimmering glimpses of Lake Dora, added privacy, natural light from multiple exposures, and plenty of room to build a pool, giving your builder a canvas that most lots on this island simply cannot. With no time restriction to build, your vision unfolds entirely on your terms and your timeline. When the day calls for the water, you're already there. Boat slips are available for rent through the Deer Island Golf Club, putting the legendary Harris Chain of Lakes at your fingertips. Historic Mount Dora is minutes away by boat, Tavares is just beyond that, Orlando's world-class attractions are approximately 45 minutes away, and both coasts are within about 90 minutes. Deer Island itself is a 400-acre natural island anchored by an award-winning 18-hole championship golf course, ranked among America's Top 50 Public Courses and #5 in Florida. The club also features 19th Wave, a restaurant and bar, all within a short golf cart ride from your front door. Golf memberships are available, but never required. The rendering from Kevco Builders shown is for inspiration only (Haven Model). Buyers are welcome to build from a completely custom floor plan or make changes to suit their lifestyle (price is subject to change based on the floor plan and size of the home). Come take a drive through the community. Once you arrive, you'll understand exactly why people choose this island for their forever home and never look back. * The photos of the house are of a previously built home. Some features and finishes are optional and can be discussed with the builder. *

I’m Rich Noto, a Florida Realtor & Home Inspector with a focus on the best price house, and quality new construction oversight. I specialize in new house purchases which includes getting homes built to Florida Residential Building Codes and Manufactures Installation Instructions.
I help homebuyers beyond the “standard Real Estate sales agent” (who may disappear after purchase contract) by dealing with sales, construction managers, attending/monitoring inspections, and spotting defects. This helps buyers catch problems early.
Builders pay my commission so my service costs buyers nothing. Does not apply after buyer is in contract(all builders) or has contacted the builder alone(some builders). This top rated service is available at any town throughout Florida.
Any agent can “sell new homes” or be a “high volume seller” or have “builder relationships”. Sales marketing has nothing to do with understanding constructions defects. Home Defects are the main expense a homeowner will have and can cost home owners thousands of $$$. Depreciating future resale value.
I enjoy teaching my customers how new homes are built. How to identify water intrusion. And the steps to keep a house well maintained to prevent leaks over time. Out of state buyers get special walkthrough and inspection videos.
Whether its a completed move-in ready inventory house, or a to be built custom on the land, or a spec house. You deserve the best quality for your money.
