Agent Description

Experience the perfect blend of privacy, comfort, and country elegance with this exceptional 5-bedroom, 3-bath estate set on 10.68 acres of fully fenced, park-like land. Majestic oak trees provide natural beauty and seclusion, creating a peaceful setting ideal for equestrian use and farm animals while offering the serenity of true country living.

Tucked away approximately 1.5 miles off the paved road, this property enjoys the quiet of rural surroundings without sacrificing convenience—less than 20 minutes from city amenities, shopping, dining, and recreation. The home itself is thoughtfully positioned near the center of the acreage, allowing scenic views and privacy from every window.

Inside, soaring ceilings elevate the great room, filling the home with natural light and giving the interior a spacious, resort-like atmosphere perfect for both everyday living and entertaining.

The home's layout is both functional and flexible. One bedroom and full bathroom are located in the East wing near the great room, kitchen, and laundry area, thoughtfully separated from the remaining bedrooms in the West wing. This arrangement creates an ideal private guest suite or in-law space, offering comfort and independence while remaining connected to the main living areas.

Extensive upgrades have been completed since 2021, beginning with a fully replaced roof that meets Florida’s updated wind requirements. Additional improvements include a fully insulated garage and workshop combination, a matching storage container, and significant grounds rejuvenation highlighted by a classic four-board fence along the driveway and roadside.

Outdoor living has been enhanced with a screen enclosure and covered patio surrounding the in-ground pool, which has also been converted to a saltwater system for easier maintenance and a more enjoyable swimming experience.

The beautifully updated kitchen features solid wood cabinetry, natural stone countertops, and an impressive suite of high-end appliances from brands including Fulgor Milano, Viking, Bosch, Samsung, LG, and Z-Line. Bathrooms throughout the home have been updated with new vanities and bathtubs, providing modern comfort and style.

Additional features include a Kinetico on-demand water softener system and fiber-optic internet with gigabit speeds available, ensuring both comfort and connectivity.

Every upgrade and improvement was completed with the intention of making this property the owners’ forever home. A change in circumstances now presents a rare opportunity for you to own one of Central Florida’s most thoughtfully upgraded town-and-country estates, where privacy, quality, and lifestyle come together in a truly remarkable setting.
