Residences
An inspired way to live, as remarkable as the residences.
The luxurious, maintenance-free residences will offer a diversity of inviting floor plans from condo-style homes to single-story garden homes. Spacious designs include screened balconies or patios, and options for extras such as a den or great room, garage and more.
The new community surrounds beautiful Lake Margaret. Many residences will offer a lakeside view or easy access. Walking paths will afford relaxing strolls along the sun-shimmering water. It’s an inspiring way to live, and it has often been said that life next to a body of water elicits a peaceful, state-of-mind found nowhere else.

Mount Dora
Florida’s premier small-town retirement location.
The Lakeside at Waterman Village expansion is located in charming, century-old, Mount Dora. With its quaint Town Square, it’s often called the “New England of the South.” Home to one of Florida’s three freshwater lighthouses, the town hosts a diverse array of monthly events. But to truly appreciate all the reasons USA Today has ranked it Florida’s #1 small-town to retire to, it’s best to come see for yourself.

Lifestyle
Make your next move your best move.
Calling Lakeside at Waterman Village your new home empowers you to continue living your best life. A primary consideration is that retiring here means you’ll never have to move again. Think of it this way: You can relocate to an interim 55(+) condo or apartment community, and face the hassle of another major move. Or, choose Lakeside where we have everything right on one campus to meet your needs now and in the future!
At our new lakeside expansion, you’ll enjoy all the amenities and services of our main campus. Renowned for providing an active, wellness-promoting lifestyle, all our current residents enjoy a remarkable array of recreational, social and educational activities. They also enjoy the security offered by our full continuum of care, should the need arise. It’s an environment that empowers your emotional, spiritual, intellectual and physical health—and harmony.
We’re excited to meet you!
