Welcome to this amazing property featuring three separate living structures. The main home consists of 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, 2 half baths, 3151 sq ft with a pool. There is a bonus room over the detached 2-car garage that has an additional 670 square feet, and a 1400 sq ft separate guest cottage with a bedroom, full bath, kitchen and living space. The home is located in Winter Park in Seminole County, sits on over an acre of land, has NO HOA, and has a deeded dock to Garden Lake, which is a ski lake. With an entire home renovation in the last 3 years, the home is move-in ready! The $65,000 kitchen remodel included expanding the kitchen and eating area into a cozy gathering space, with a 10’ x 4’ island housing a wine rack, bar refrigerator, and drawer microwave. Beautiful quartz countertops with waterfall sides are warmed by the wood wall accents and top of the line appliances: Thermador refrigerator, freezer, built-in induction cooktop, steam oven, and convection oven. The rest of the home received the same loving care: bamboo flooring throughout the main home, all bathrooms renovated, and many structural and technological updates made on the home. The layout is such that you’ll be able to find some quiet time alone if you’d like but are never far from the action. The formal living and dining rooms look out onto the salt-water, screened pool and the lake beyond, the family room is on the other side of the kitchen and has two sitting areas, one for watching TV and the other focused on the fireplace. The downstairs bonus room is located off the family room and has a full bath, plus access to the backyard. Three bedrooms are upstairs, and the primary bedroom will take your breath away. From the view out to the pool and lake, to the bonus room off the master perfect for exercise, office, nursery or anything else, to the cedar-lined walk-in closet to the beautiful bathroom, this will be your hideout! The other two bedrooms are large and have oversized closets and share the remodeled bathroom with dual vanities. Don’t forget the large bonus room over the garage that can easily be plumbed, or the guest cottage, which could be used as an office, a rental, an in-law suite. The entire property is fenced with a private gate, there is a whole-house reverse osmosis system, whole-house low-voltage wiring, solar hot water heater, irrigation with water from the lake, and a security system. So much more has been done over the past 3 years, call today for your private showing!
