About this home
MEDITERRANEAN LAKEFRONT SANCTUARY - YOUR PRIVATE RESORT AWAITS
Welcome to the home where every day feels like a vacation.
Nestled on one of Regatta Bay's most coveted lakefront parcels—nearly half an acre of pure paradise—this stunning Mediterranean estate offers something increasingly rare: space, serenity, and sweeping water views that will take your breath away.
A HOME THAT'S READY FOR YOU
With a brand-new premium concrete tile roof installed in 2025—a $96,800 investment offering hurricane-rated protection and a 50+ year lifespan—this home brings immediate peace of mind and insurance savings. The pool has been beautifully resurfaced with a new pump, ready for your first sunset swim. This is turnkey lakefront living at its finest. THE MOMENT YOU ARRIVE
A graceful circular driveway welcomes you home, setting the tone for what lies ahead. Brick pavers lead to an expansive three-car garage (with room for your golf cart), while hand-laid travertine tiles guide you to the grand entrance. Before you even step inside, you'll feel itthis is somewhere special.
ARCHITECTURE THAT CAPTIVATES
Step into a world of effortless elegance. Leonardo travertine tile flows into rich Brazilian hardwood that carries you through sun-drenched rooms, each one opening to tranquil lake views. Decorative tray ceilings with crown molding add sophistication, while floor-to-ceiling windows frame the shimmering 5-acre lake like living artwork.
WHERE ENTERTAINING BECOMES EFFORTLESS
The heart of this home is the chef's kitchen,a space designed for both culinary creativity and connection. Imagine preparing dinner at your five-burner gas range, wine cooler within easy reach, while friends gather at the breakfast bar. Conversation flows naturally into the family room, where a cozy fireplace adds warmth on those rare cool Florida evenings.
And just beyond? Your screened pool and spa overlooking the lake, where the party seamlessly continues under the stars.
WELLNESS & LUXURY, PERFECTED
This home understands that true luxury is about how you feel. Retreat to your private sauna,a rare amenity that transforms your daily routine into a spa experience. The executive study offers the perfect work-from-home sanctuary. Three bedroom suites, each with private baths, ensure everyone feels pampered.
The master suite is your personal haven. Wake to lake views, step onto your private lanai with morning coffee, and unwind in your oversized custom walk-in closet. The spa-inspired bath features a jetted tub, separate shower, dual vanities and a dedicated makeup stationbecause you deserve to feel like you're at a five-star resort every single day.
