About 2300 N Scenic Hwy Unit 56

Welcome to a beautifully preserved slice of history, nestled on 4.23 acres of lush, private grounds. This enchanting 1920’s home was thoughtfully reimagined in the 80’s as a countryside Palladian villa by I W Colburn, an award-winning architect who has left his imprint on a number of homes in Mountain Lake. Enjoy sweeping Bok Tower views from the arched sunset porch or bask in an 80' lap pool in an idyllic walled courtyard as you escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The spacious, interior entertaining space boasts a gorgeous, 14' high pecky cypress ceiling and a succession of vaulted and arched spaces flowing from inside to outside. The kitchen and all bathrooms were recently renovated to today’s modern standards and an enclosed screened porch provides additional entertaining and dining space adjacent to the kitchen. A private master wing offers his and her dressing rooms and a fully appointed bathroom with a classic clawfoot soaking tub positioned to take full advantage of the sunset. Step outside and immerse yourself in the beauty of the grounds as you lounge in a landscaped courtyard, float in the pool or wander through your very own orange grove, where you can enjoy the fresh, fragrant citrus blossoms and their irresistible fragrance. The property includes a detached two-story guest house with a full kitchen and 2 bedrooms and ensuite baths, making it ideal for hosting visitors or serving as a private retreat. From the guest house’s 2nd story bedroom, 270 degree views of pastoral landscapes, soaring rooftop statues and the distant Bok Tower will greet your guest each morning along with the sunrise and transport them to another land. Additionally, the property features a detached 2-car garage. This property is more than just a home—it’s a sanctuary that offers a rare combination of historical charm, modern convenience, and unparalleled privacy. Don’t miss the opportunity to make this extraordinary estate your own. Schedule a visit today and experience the allure of this unique home.
