Property Description
The extended drive-through two-car garage connects to a brand-new decorative paver driveway, allowing for effortless entry and exit, while providing easy access to the charming backyard complete with paver walkways, a custom hangout area, and freshly installed St. Augustine sod. The lush landscaping is maintained by an efficient, eco-friendly irrigation system that draws free water directly from the canal. Towering cypress trees provide natural shade and character, and a rope swing invites spontaneous fun right into the water. A private dock sits ready for your boat, kayak, or paddleboard, making it easy to explore all Lake Brantley has.
The outdoor space is truly an entertainer's dream, anchored by a PebbleTec pool with a beach entry, sun shelf, fountain, and an in-pool umbrella mount. A massive 44-foot custom deck offers space to lounge and dine al fresco, while the 25x13 covered lanai—framed by three walls of decorative tile and one side screened—provides the perfect spot to relax day or night.
Inside, this 3-bedroom, 3-bath home has been thoughtfully updated with high-end designer touches throughout. The grand 14x9 foyer welcomes you with a cedar-lined coat closet and sets the tone for the style and quality you'll find throughout. The primary suite features a luxurious spa-inspired bathroom complete with a fully enclosed steam shower equipped with six body sprayers, a rain head, and built-in aromatherapy. The third full bath, perfect as a pool bath, showcases a walk-in shower, a striking custom vanity, and a built-in heat lamp for added comfort. Hand-turned wooden vessel sinks, custom tilework, and carefully curated finishes elevate every bathroom to a work of art.
The kitchen is a showstopper, featuring two skylights, solid granite countertops, beautifully crafted custom cabinets with decorative hardware, and a massive 9x3.5 island illuminated by custom tea lights. The kitchen flows openly into bright living and family rooms, where a wood-burning fireplace adds warmth and charm. The family room has 20 feet of glass sliders that fully open to the lanai, creating an exceptional indoor-outdoor entertaining experience.
Additional updates include a new roof, new windows, and a new HVAC system, as well as a fully encapsulated crawl space with both a dehumidifier and a moisture extractor to enhance air quality and protect the home's foundation. The property also features a RainSoft water filtration system and a hybrid water heater, along with recessed lighting, upgraded doors, and custom blinds throughout.
Located in the heart of Longwood, you're just minutes from Wekiva Springs, Reiter Park, boutique restaurants, breweries, scenic nature trails, and some of Seminole County's top-rated schools. For boating enthusiasts, the optional HOA—just $339 annually—includes access to a private boat ramp into Lake Brantley. Whether you're swimming, paddleboarding, entertaining, or simply enjoying the view, every day in this home feels like a vacation.
