About this home
With a level of scale and versatility rarely available in Laurel Oak Estates today, this residence is set on an oversized lakefront corner lot just under three-quarters of an acre, offering exceptional privacy, long water views, and a true legacy opportunity within the community.
Designed for both gracious entertaining and everyday living, the home unfolds through expansive yet inviting spaces filled with natural light and framed by soaring ceilings and tranquil lake views. Multiple living and gathering areas create an effortless flow, allowing the home to feel equally comfortable hosting large celebrations or quiet evenings at home.
At the heart of the residence, the chef’s kitchen anchors the main living areas with custom cabinetry, stone surfaces, a generous center island, and a built-in wine bar, ideal for connection, conversation, and entertaining. Architectural details such as eight-foot solid doors, crown molding, and thoughtfully scaled rooms add warmth and timeless character throughout.
Five private en-suite bedrooms provide comfort and flexibility, including a spacious primary suite with spa-like bath and generous closet space. A separate lakefront guest residence offers exceptional versatility and privacy, featuring northern exposure, soaring ceilings, loft space, and a private balcony, ideal as an in-law suite, art studio, private office, or retreat.
Outdoor living is calm and expansive. A screened pool and spa, newly updated with new tile and resurfacing, along with a paver lanai, outdoor shower, and courtyard with fountain create a peaceful setting for relaxation and entertaining, all overlooking the lake. The .6896 acre lot provides a rare sense of openness and privacy within the community.
Additional features include a circular drive, multiple garages including a separate garage for the guest residence, multiple zoned air-conditioning systems, and a newer tile roof supporting comfort, efficiency, and ease of living.
