What the county record says

The even side of a plat that runs by dozens

The parcel numbering in Aladar On Lake Butler does not follow the house numbers. This address is parcel 010 — the first in the 0723280044 sequence — yet it sits opposite 799, which is parcel 020. The plat runs 010, 020, 030 through 090 on this stretch, then 101, 110, 131, 140, 160, 171, 180, 190, 200, 211, 212.

So an address-sorted walk down the street jumps across the plat repeatedly, and a parcel-sorted one does not follow the road. Neither ordering describes the shoreline, which is the only ordering a buyer actually cares about.

The rate is $462.83 — the tenth-lowest here, on the eighth-largest house on the street.

Reading the Wauseon Bay frontage

Wauseon Bay opens off Lake Butler on the Town of Windermere side, so an address here is on the Butler Chain without sitting on the main basin. This parcel is screened as lakefront because its boundary reaches a mapped water polygon — a mapping result, not a shoreline survey.

Bay frontage, canal frontage and lake frontage are three different things to a buyer, and a GIS screen does not settle which one a deck faces. The recorded plat and the deed describe the lot; the permitting authority describes what may be built on the water.

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 figure for its own tax year.
• It is not a statement that parcel 010 is the corner lot. The roll does not carry that.

Windermere adds municipal review

Inside the Town of Windermere, exterior work and tree removal run through the town as well as the county. A renovation story in a listing description should name the approval that exists, not the one the buyer hopes for.
