Windermere Sound Overview
Windermere's Most Accessible New-Construction Gated Address
Windermere Sound fills a gap that older Windermere communities cannot: gated living with genuinely newer construction in the Windermere High School zone at prices starting under $560K. Most gated communities in the 34786 ZIP were built in the 1990s and 2000s — Windermere Sound's KB Homes inventory, built 2015–2022, means buyers get current energy efficiency standards, open-concept layouts designed for modern living, and mechanical systems that are years newer than the alternatives.
The community is located off Reams Road near the CR 535 corridor, positioning residents for easy access to the SR-429 Western Beltway, Disney, and downtown Windermere. The community draws heavily from dual-income professional couples and young families who prioritize newer construction and school zone quality over large lot size or resort-style golf amenities.
The keypad-gated entry (not guard-gated) is reflected in the HOA fee structure — running $150–$250 per month versus $400+ at staffed-gate communities — which matters for buyers who want the gated address without the higher carrying cost.

Windermere Sound FL — FAQ
What is Windermere Sound?
Windermere Sound is a gated community in Windermere, Orange County FL (ZIP 34786), built primarily by KB Homes between 2015 and 2022. The community has 300+ homes featuring contemporary and transitional architecture with energy-efficient construction, open floor plans, and 3–5 bedroom configurations. Amenities include a community pool, playground, and walking trails. It is located off Reams Road near the CR 535 corridor and is one of the newest gated communities in the Windermere 34786 market.
Is Windermere Sound guard-gated?
Windermere Sound is gated but not guard-gated. Entry is controlled by keypad access rather than a staffed guardhouse. This is the primary distinction from communities like Keene's Pointe (24/7 guard-gated) and contributes to Windermere Sound's more accessible HOA fee structure — approximately $150–$250 per month versus $400+ at guard-gated communities.
How does Windermere Sound compare to older Windermere communities like Belmere or Tilden's Grove?
Windermere Sound's primary advantage over older Windermere communities is its construction vintage. Homes built 2015–2022 feature modern open-concept floor plans, current energy efficiency standards, updated mechanical systems, and contemporary finishes — compared to the 1990s and early 2000s construction found in communities like Belmere and Tilden's Grove. The trade-off is lot size: Windermere Sound's typical 6,000–8,000 sqft lots are smaller than the larger parcels common in older Windermere communities. Buyers who prioritize newer systems and modern layouts over lot size generally favor Windermere Sound.
What are home prices in Windermere Sound?
Windermere Sound homes range from approximately $500K to $750K. Entry-level homes in the community start near $500K and represent the most affordable gated entry point in the Windermere 34786 ZIP. Mid-tier homes — the standard KB Homes product with 4 bedrooms and 2,500–3,200 sqft — run $530K–$650K. Premium homes with larger floor plans, 4–5 bedrooms, and upgraded finishes command $620K–$750K. HOA fees are approximately $150–$250 per month.
What schools serve Windermere Sound?
Windermere Sound is served by Windermere Elementary, Bridgewater Middle School, and Windermere High School — all part of Orange County Public Schools (OCPS). Windermere High School is one of the most sought-after public school assignments in Orange County. The school zone is a significant demand driver for the community and one of the primary reasons buyers prioritize a 34786 address over comparable newer construction in neighboring ZIP codes. Always verify your specific address with OCPS Find My School before closing.
