About this home
This historic Art Deco residence built in 1944 has been maintained and remodeled through the years preserving a refreshingly modern architecture. Its timeless beauty is a true testament to the lasting value and appreciation of its classic design. Perfectly suited to its surroundings, on high lot overlooking one of the pristine lakes on the Butler Chain, this home reflects sunlight and glows in sharp contrast to the blue sky and lake waters beyond. Shadows of breezy palms brush against the walls and lawns gently slope to the water’s edge with 160 ‘ of seawalled shoreline. The home is light and bright with an abundance of windows exposing gorgeous views and natural light. The easy flowing floor plan offers wonderful living spaces on the main level. The Master Suite and 3 additional bedrooms are located on the 2nd floor. The 5th bedroom, bath and exercise room with an adjacent steam shower and private outdoor patio is found on the lower level accessed by elevator. Breathtaking views are enjoyed from the balcony and terraced patios surrounding a magnificent pool area with outdoor kitchen and garden planters. Located in the Town of Windermere where residents take pride in preserving the environment and value the quality of life. Walk to Friday Farmer’s Market and all town amenities and events or travel by golf cart to shops and restaurants. Minutes away from renowned golf, premium shopping and fine dining. Florida living at its finest! Roof recently replaced and has 10 year warranty.
