A quiet yet convenient Lake County community
Silver Lake, a residential community about 50 miles north of Orlando in scenic Lake County, occupies a sweet spot between rural solitude and urban accessibility. “It’s private yet convenient,” says Sharon Wooten, an experienced Realtor with ERA Grizzard Real Estate based in nearby Mount Dora. “It’s more of a laidback community, but you also have a state college here and you’re right off a major highway, so there are restaurants and shopping nearby.” Adds Robin Costoplos, a broker associate with Coldwell Banker Vanguard Edge who lives minutes from the community: “It’s very peaceful and quiet, not to mention beautiful.”
In Silver Lake, residences boast ample lot sizes and picturesque vistas.
Lake Sumter State College is an essential part of the Silver Lake community.

Surrounding chain of lakes provides plenty of recreation
While Silver Lake itself provides plenty of recreation for those who live along it, it is a private lake. However, the community’s main attraction is being surrounded by three large lakes – Griffin, Harris and Eustis – that are all connected. “Leesburg and all these little towns are part of the Harris Chain of Lakes,” says Wooten. “You can go all the way up to Jacksonville and all the way down to the Intracoastal Waterway on the lakes. That’s a huge asset for boating and fishing. It’s a great area for people who like to be on the water.” Residents enjoy access to the beauty and opportunity of Central Florida’s natural landscape as well as proximity to regional attractions. “There’s a lot to do in the area,” Costoplos says. “You’re within 10 minutes of Downtown Leesburg and within 10 minutes of Downtown Tavares, which is on the chain of lakes. There’s a lot of activity there. You have a lot of restaurants and bars, and people like to walk around Lake Eustis.”
Lake Eustis, minutes from Crystal Lake, is great for boating and fishing.
Boaters enjoy Lake Harris, located just minutes from Silver Lake.

From established ranch homes to high-value waterfront properties
The community’s largest and most expensive homes can be found on Silver Lake Drive, with private piers and boats floating in their backyards a common sight. Nearby Silver Lake Meadows is a planned development that features a collection of luxury homes on oversized lots. Smaller contemporary homes are part of ongoing construction at planned communities such as The Silver Lake Pointe. Traditional ranch-style homes can be found throughout Silver Lake. “It’s a good market with some very nice homes on the lake and also older-but-still-nice homes,” says Wooten. “Price ranges depend on the location. On the water, you’re looking at anywhere from $450,000 to a few homes that go as high as $1 million or more,” says Wooten. “Off the water, you can get an older ranch-style home for around $300,000.” The average home value is $425,000. “You will get more bang for your buck than in some of the surrounding areas because not a lot of people know about it,” says Costoplos, who recently sold a remodeled home on Silver Lake.
Silver Lake Drive has many mature trees and beautiful large houses across from the lake.
