125 Down Ct, Windermere, FL 34786

What the county record says

Reading the numbers

This is the arithmetic that explains Down Ct. 125 is the smallest house on the court at 1,893 sq ft — 754 sq ft smaller than 116 down the street — and it is assessed $355,270 higher. The rate difference is stark: $526 a foot here, $242 at 116.

The variable is the water flag. 116 is canal. 125 is lakefront on Little Lake Down. Nothing else in the record separates them by enough to account for a 2.2× rate.

1959 and 1963 cottages at 136 and 137 sit either side of the rate this house sets, and both are lakefront too. So the pattern is consistent within the lakefront group — $319 to $526 — and consistently above the canal group, with one exception at 136 noted on its own page.

Three bedrooms and two baths on 1,893 sq ft: one bedroom without its own bath, at the smallest floor area on the street.

Reading the frontage

Lakefront is a mapped-polygon flag against Little Lake Down: the parcel reaches that water. No shoreline length, dock, seawall or lift is recorded.

Little Lake Down is not Lake Down. They are separate bodies with separate shorelines, and a Down Ct address fronts the smaller one. Any copy that upgrades this to Lake Down frontage, or to the Butler Chain, is naming a different lake.

Davis Shores First Replat is the plat for the court. Lot and block references come from that filing, not from a metes-and-bounds description.

What this page is not

• It is not a listing. Nothing here says the property is for sale.
• It is not an appraisal. Just value is the county's assessment figure for its own tax year.
• It does not confirm a dock, a seawall or navigable access to Little Lake Down.
• It does not establish whether the frontage is usable for a boat — no depth or channel data is recorded.
