Discover a rare expression of Florida luxury: a beautifully appointed lakefront residence paired with an extraordinary 2,208 SF DETACHED, CLIMATE-CONTROLLED GARAGE designed for the collector who refuses to compromise. Architecture, entertaining, and automotive space unite on an ideal homesite.
The detached garage is a destination in itself: fully air-conditioned and finished to residential standards with porcelain tile, New Age Pro-Series steel cabinetry, dedicated storage, and 200-amp service. A 9,000-LB LIFT accommodates serious mechanical work.
Four insulated, hurricane-impact overhead doors include two 12' x 12' bays, a 14' x 14' bay for taller vehicles, and a 10' x 8' opening into storage from the adjoining 576 SF covered carport. The attached garage adds another 1,215 air-conditioned SF with epoxy floors and matching cabinetry.
Six remote-operated doors and two driveways offer ample room for vehicles and gatherings. A gracious front porch welcomes you inside the home, where volume ceilings, wood beams, and an open-concept layout showcase peaceful lake views. The living room flows into the kitchen and dining areas, while a den and formal dining room behind wood barn doors provide elegant flexibility.
The kitchen features a large island, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. Double doors open to the main suite, where two walk-in closets with built-in cabinetry complement an exquisite en suite bath. Three additional bedrooms and two baths sit privately on the opposite side of the home.
One bedroom includes a Murphy bed with integrated desk and shelving, ideal for guests or a home office. Thoughtful upgrades include spray-foam insulation, impact-rated glass and doors, central vacuum, two tankless gas water heaters, a 500-lb in-ground propane tank, whole-house reverse osmosis, monitored security with five cameras, and Wi-Fi throughout the home, garage, and grounds.
Wall-to-wall pocket sliders open to an expansive paver lanai designed for effortless entertaining. A covered seating and dining area with a stone-faced gas fireplace overlooks the saltwater pool and integrated spa, framed by lush landscaping and evening lighting.
Beyond, a paver patio adds gathering space, while an illuminated walkway leads to a smokeless firepit at the water's edge. The detached garage can transform from an immaculate showcase into a climate-controlled retreat or entertaining venue capable of accommodating a party of 100.
Horse Creek offers privacy and easy access, with quiet streets, generous lots, miles of nature trails, a 12-acre riverside park, and a kayak/canoe launch onto the Orange River. I-75, Downtown Fort Myers, shopping, dining, entertainment, SW Florida International Airport, and Gulf beaches are nearby. This is more than a home with an exceptional garage; it is a private Florida estate designed around the way you live, entertain, collect, and enjoy. Bring the collection. There's room for all of it.
