Built in 1973 on a "meticulously manicured" lot alongside Lake Maitland, this gated elegant French Provincial estate was remodeled in 2013 by Posada Custom Homes. It has five bedrooms and four-and-two-half bath, with major upgrades and luxurious appointments throughout.
The jaw-dropping kitchen has state-of-the-art appliances and an adjoining dining room for intimate gatherings.
A welcoming family room with Venetian plaster walls and a tray ceiling opens up into a covered outdoor space, creating a truly serene sanctuary. The downstairs master retreat lets you behold lake views from an opulent marble bath, and a downstairs office works great when you have to work at home. Huge upstairs bedrooms include two full bathrooms, a bonus room and a balcony that overlooks the waterfront. One bedroom is set up as an exercise room and another is a sitting room, en suite and lovely views. Naturally, there's a spacious media-theater room with a 120-inch screen and kitchenette.
A central vacuum system helps keep the hardwood floors clean, and a video security system and Savant home automation system will keep you save from the guillotine-wielding hordes ... for now.
The spectacular patio area has a fire pit, pool, fountains and outdoor kitchen and shower. A guesthouse with its own kitchen, full bath and gas fireplace keeps guests at a distance. The boathouse includes boat lift, jet ski dock, refrigerator and storage room for spending days on the water. The listing is held by Mick Night of Premier Sotheby's International Realty, Winter Park and is listed at a cool $3.450 million.
