About This Property

Welcome to 5018 River Gem Avenue, an exceptional one-story pool estate with serene pond views in the prestigious Summerport community of Windermere, perfectly positioned for luxury living, convenience, and resort-style enjoyment — only 20 minutes from the Disney Theme Parks, Disney Springs, premier shopping, dining, and major roadways.

This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath, 2,379 sq ft showpiece features a refined split floor plan with 10- and 12-foot ceilings, abundant natural light, and new tile and marble flooring throughout (no carpet). Custom interior finishes elevate the living spaces, while tranquil water views grace multiple rooms.

Recent high-end improvements include a new pool screen enclosure (Jan 2025), vinyl/iron fencing (2023), roof (2018), tankless water heater (2017), HVAC (2017), and Kinetico water softener & reverse osmosis system (2023). A natural gas line is in place for future chef-ready upgrades.
The gourmet kitchen boasts granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, wood cabinetry, a raised breakfast bar, and a cozy nook overlooking the great room and pool. Designed for effortless entertaining, the interior flows to the travertine-finished, screen-enclosed lanai, extended patio, and solar-heated saltwater pool with a new pool pump (2025) and salt cell (2024, with warranty) — all framed by calming pond vistas.

The primary suite is a private sanctuary with a tray ceiling, dual walk-in closets, garden tub, electronic window treatments, and direct access to outdoor living. Additional highlights include a pool-access half bath, oversized split garage with high ceilings and deep storage, and impeccably landscaped, low-maintenance grounds with mature fruit trees (lemon, lime, avocado, guava and papaya).

Living in Summerport means enjoying an unparalleled lifestyle. Residents have access to the community’s exclusive clubhouse and pool complex with fitness center and social spaces at Summerport Residential POA Clubhouse. Meandering walking and biking trails, parks, and green spaces provide daily opportunities for outdoor recreation just steps from home. The nearby Summerport Neighborhood Park offers playgrounds, picnic areas, and scenic paths for all ages.
For everyday convenience, Cornerstone at Summerport village-style shopping is just around the corner, providing groceries, cafés, services, and more. Downtown Windermere and Winter Garden’s vibrant boutiques, specialty dining, and lifestyle retail are also moments away, with premier destinations like Winter Garden Village and The Grove reachable in under 15–20 minutes.
This remarkable home blends luxury, comfort, and lifestyle — ideal as a primary residence, second home, or Florida retreat with everything you want just minutes away.
