Description
Welcome to this magnificent estate home nestled within the secure confines of Orchid Springs, a private gated community. Step into an oasis of elegance, where meticulous architecture harmonizes with the natural beauty of Florida's fauna. The sprawling 1-acre property is a botanical delight, featuring impeccably landscaped gardens and trees that provide a stunning backdrop to the serene Lake Lewis. Originally crafted in 1969, this custom home seamlessly incorporates natural coral rock stone, sourced from Coral Gables, both inside and outside. Boasting over 4,000 sq ft under air, this residence encompasses 4 bedrooms, each with their own bathroom, and a versatile guest house/artist studio. A grand circle driveway, adorned with a spacious porte-cochere, invites you into a space with ample room for your car collection, boats, and recreational toys. Upon entering, you'll be captivated by views of the lake and veranda garden from the front door and living room. The living and formal dining areas lead to a Chef's kitchen that underwent a remarkable makeover in 2021. The heart of the kitchen features a large island with upgraded Quartz countertops (Quantum quartz), complemented by custom solid wood cabinets and high-end stainless appliances, including a Wolf gas range, hood vent package, and oversized Sub-Zero refrigerator. As you explore, you'll discover a library area and a private home office space. The home's details are abundant, from exotic redwood floating vanities in two bathrooms to natural wood veneer walls in various spaces. Two master bedroom suites, along with two additional bedrooms, provide ample space for family and guests. The detached building, currently an artist studio, offers versatile possibilities such as a guest house, workshop, gym, game room, or wine cellar. The rear patio veranda showcases flowing courtyards and brick-lined patios, creating ideal family gathering spaces. A private dock on Lake Lewis beckons for fishing, sunset viewing, or leisurely canoeing. Recent property updates include fresh exterior paint, new ceramic tile-wood plank floors in 2020, updated AC units in 2018, plumbing upgrades, new dock decking, and remodeled bathrooms in 2020. This home is a timeless masterpiece that seamlessly combines luxury, comfort, and the charm of Florida living.
