Since April 2024, the home has undergone extensive updates, including: New HVAC system and ductwork New 1,000-gallon septic tank and five-chamber drain field Full PEX re-piping throughout French drain across the full width of the driveway New flooring, fresh paint, and updated trim throughout New jet ski dock, new boat lift motor and cradle for a pontoon boat Refreshed pool system for effortless maintenance Every room in this home is thoughtfully designed and purpose-driven: The primary master suite is quietly tucked away for maximum privacy and tranquility. A second master suite features its own en-suite bath, walk-in closet, and private access to the pool area—ideal for guests or extended family. The outdoor shower near the pool adds convenience and a resort-like touch. At the center of the home, the spacious living room is made for entertaining, complete with a real wood-burning fireplace and six sets of back doors that open to the lanai, creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful, with custom cabinetry, solid surface counters, a new modern sink, dishwasher, disposal, and refrigerator—a dream for any home chef. The sunroom, surrounded by windows, offers daily, year-round views of the lake and pool—providing the kind of peace and beauty only found in Central Florida. But this home doesn’t just impress inside. Step down into your completely private courtyard, a hidden oasis framed by swaying palm trees—ideal for quiet sunbathing or peaceful reflection. A thoughtfully designed walkway connects the courtyard to the front door, offering a grand yet intimate entry. The property also includes two separate garages (offering three-car storage) plus a dedicated carport—ample space for vehicles, lake toys, and more. This is more than a home—it’s a private retreat, a lakeside lifestyle, and a rare opportunity all in one. Come experience why this one-of-a-kind Winter Haven property is exactly why we choose to live in Florida. We highly recommend scheduling tours after 8:00 PM to fully take in the breathtaking sunset, best experienced from the tranquil elegance of the poolside retreat.
