About 1249 Lake Point Dr

Welcome to this stunning French-inspired architectural masterpiece tucked away in the sought-after Scott Lake area, nestled on a peaceful cul-de-sac with breathtaking views and deeded lake access. As you walk up the impressive, solid brick walkway, you’ll be drawn in by the lush landscaping and the timeless appeal of the brick terraces. This home invites you in through a stately double-door entryway, where elegance and craftsmanship are immediately on display. From the impressive architectural details to the plantation shutters throughout, this remarkable 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home is a true showcase of luxury, sophistication, and attention to detail. Inside, the foyer is stunning, featuring elegant marble tile and authentic grasscloth wallpaper, which sets the tone for the richness throughout. Just off the entry, leaded-glass decorative windows reveal a charming step-down entertaining room and lead into the formal dining room. The home features Brazilian cherry hardwood floors throughout most of the living spaces, complemented beautifully by neutral tones and accented with crown molding in nearly every room (excluding the bedrooms and hall closets). At the heart of the home, the open-concept living area is anchored by a gourmet chef’s kitchen, thoughtfully designed with both elegance and function in mind. The kitchen showcases an oversized quartz waterfall island with a prep sink and microwave drawer, two-tone custom cabinetry, and a custom pantry concealed within the cabinetry. It also includes pull-outs on all drawers, a quartz backsplash, and top-tier stainless steel appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator. The attached butler’s pantry, complete with a second Sub-Zero refrigerator, elevates the home’s entertaining functionality and daily comfort. This home offers abundant storage, and every inch of this residence has been thoughtfully designed. Retreat to the private living quarters, where the spacious master suite provides serene lake views, a generous walk-in closet, and a beautifully updated en-suite bath with granite counters and a walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms feature en-suite bathrooms, and the fourth bedroom is suitable for use as a guest room or a dedicated home office. Step outside to the screened-in lanai, an entertainer’s dream, where large floor-to-ceiling windows from the family room provide a seamless view of the sparkling, saltwater heated pool. The home also features two new A/C units and a whole-home generator, ensuring comfort and security year-round. With its incredible layout, timeless upgrades, and elegant lakeside setting, this home is truly beyond words—you simply have to schedule a private showing to experience it in person.
