Property Description

Welcome to an exceptional lakefront estate nestled within the private, guard-gated community of Lake Markham Preserve. Set on more than one acre with stunning views of Lake Markham, this custom Mediterranean residence combines timeless Tuscan-inspired architecture with sophisticated updates and an extraordinary indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Offering 5 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, and more than 5,000 square feet under air with over 7,196 total square feet, the home features soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, rich wood flooring, plantation shutters, and beautifully appointed living spaces throughout. The first-floor primary suite provides a private retreat with a thoughtfully updated bathroom and two custom walk-in closets. A private office, updated kitchen, spacious laundry room, wine bar, and gas fireplace add both functionality and elegance to the main living spaces. The outdoor living experience is truly exceptional. A large covered and screened patio overlooks the resort-style pool and spa, complete with a tongue-and-groove ceiling, exterior fireplace, and outdoor kitchen creating the perfect setting for entertaining or relaxing while taking in the peaceful lake views. A private guest house/cabana offers exceptional flexibility with its own bedroom, full bathroom, and living room, making it ideal for guests, extended family, or a private retreat. Upstairs, an additional bedroom and bathroom accompany a large media room, creating a versatile secondary living space. Additional highlights include a three-car garage, paver driveway, expansive outdoor living areas, custom architectural details, and the privacy afforded by Lake Markham Preserve's 24-hour guard-gated entrance. With its combination of acreage, lakefront setting, custom architecture, resort-style amenities, and flexible guest accommodations, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly distinctive estate in one of Central Florida's most private and desirable communities.
