Step through the front doors of this private WaterColor retreat and you'll know you're home. Nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac backing up to forever green space and glittering views of Western Lake beyond, this 2018 build by Chris Clark is ideal for a buyer looking for all the amenities and activities available in WaterColor with a quiet reprieve from the hustle and bustle of a resort community. Featuring six bedrooms, two bunk-rooms and a full home gym, this Vermilion Way home boasts the absolute best location to live in and enjoy all that WaterColor has to offer. Flawlessly designed by Geoff Chick & Associates in collaboration with Robyn Prince and Marianne Temple, the entire home is filled with sensational architectural details, remarkable craftsmanship and a bright and airy coastal ambiance that will leave you speechless. The first floor is designed for entertaining and warm fellowship with open-concept living, dining and kitchen spaces. Step outside onto the deck where a 75-ft. lap pool with heated spa and firepit await. Beyond the kitchen, outfitted with Wolf appliances, you'll discover a butler's kitchen and glass wine cellar with wet bar. A mudroom flows out to a 2 ½-car garage that sits beneath an exquisite carriage house, complete with a full kitchen, private bedroom and bunk room. Take the elevator to the second floor where you'll be ensconced in cozy serenity with two pronounced master suites featuring luxurious baths and ample his-and-hers closets. Each suite opens onto a deck with hanging swing beds and lake views. A bunk room includes sleeping quarters for two and room for a home office or reading nook, and an oversized laundry room with dual washers and dryers is conveniently located for all. The third floor provides a second living area with wet bar, two additional bedrooms and two full baths. The pièce de résistance, however, awaits in the home's fourth-floor tower featuring stunning lake and gulf views. The home's comfortable and inviting furnishings have been expertly chosen and styled to perfection, making this beach house the perfect Florida retreat situated on the highest elevation in WaterColor.
