Lake Life Awaits on Lake Harris: A Rare Opportunity in Tavares, Florida

There’s something special about life on the lake. Early morning stillness. Unmatched sunset views. The sound of water gently lapping at the shore. If you’ve ever dreamed of building your own lakefront retreat, this might be your moment.
📍 1150 Peninsula Dr | Tavares, FL
💰 Offered at $915,000
We’re thrilled to present a rare opportunity to own nearly an acre of prime lakefront land on Lake Harris—the largest lake in Central Florida’s famous Harris Chain of Lakes. This pad-ready, cleared, and leveled lot offers the perfect setting for your custom home, whether you envision a weekend getaway or a forever escape.
Why Lake Harris?
Lake Harris is a crown jewel of Lake County, Florida, offering over 13,000 acres of open water ideal for boating, fishing, and watersports. From your own backyard, you can cruise the Harris Chain through Lake Eustis and Lake Dora, dock at lakeside restaurants, or just soak in the views with a cold drink in hand.
And this lot? It’s located on The Peninsula—a soon-to-be gated community limited to just 16 other homesites. With private dock potential, no build timeline, and a completed survey, this property is not just a blank canvas—it’s a head start.
A Laid-Back Yet Adventurous Lifestyle
Lakefront living here blends peace and adventure. Wakeboarding in the morning, a sunset cruise in the evening, and bonfires under the stars at night. Weekends become something to look forward to, and weekdays feel a little more like vacation.
Living in Lake County also means you’re just minutes from downtown Tavares—known as “America’s Seaplane City”—as well as Mount Dora, with its charming shops, festivals, and dining. Plus, Orlando’s theme parks and airport are just under an hour away.
Ready to Build
What makes this opportunity even more unique:
-
Pad is certified and ready for your home’s slab
-
Soil, environmental testing, and updated survey completed
-
Custom 5,700+ sq ft home plans ready to go to permitting
-
Planned city water/sewer tie-in (July 2026)
Whether you're an avid boater, a sunset chaser, or simply ready to design a home where every day feels like a getaway, 1150 Peninsula Dr checks all the boxes.
Let’s schedule time to walk the land together!
