Description

Welcome to an extraordinary 2025 luxury modern farmhouse estate, offering 3,591 square feet of refined heated living space and 5,595 total square feet of thoughtfully crafted design. Set on an expansive, seaplane-friendly lakefront property, this residence blends modern elegance with timeless farmhouse character to create a lifestyle of comfort, sophistication, and privacy. A striking aluminum roof and an impressive 50-foot covered front porch set the tone upon arrival. Inside, soaring 12-foot ceilings and a dramatic 14-foot cathedral ceiling over the living room and kitchen create an expansive, light-filled atmosphere. Custom hardwood floors, premium stone selections, and meticulous craftsmanship elevate every inch of the interior. The chef’s kitchen is a true centerpiece of the home, curated for both beauty and performance. It features premium appliances, including a 48-inch gas range with hood and pot filler, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, and a dedicated hot beverage station. Solid wood cabinetry is enhanced with soft LED accent lighting at the kick plates and beneath the upper cabinets, adding a warm and luxurious glow. A spacious walk-through pantry with its own sink provides added convenience and exceptional functionality. The estate offers four well-appointed bedrooms, five full baths, a private study or den, and a large bonus/play area ideally situated near the secondary bedrooms—perfect for families or guests. A multi-zoned air-conditioning system ensures personalized comfort throughout the home. The primary bedroom retreat is a sanctuary of style and serenity, featuring an ensuite adorned with expansive stonework, a built-in makeup vanity, and a standalone soaking tub positioned to overlook the surrounding woods. An expansive walk-in closet completes this luxurious space. The outdoor living experience is truly exceptional. A stunning lanai features a real wood-burning fireplace and overlooks a fully automated heated pool and spa. Beyond the pool lies approximately 500 feet of deeded water frontage along a breathtaking, considerably deep 48-acre lake. This rare body of water is ideal not only for boating, jet skis, and fishing but is also perfectly suited for seaplane access. You can build your own private dock and enjoy the unparalleled beauty and freedom of true lakefront living. The estate includes two separate garages: a traditional two-car garage and an oversized one-car garage ideal for storing tools, machinery, or ATV’s to run the property with. Horses are welcome, offering even greater versatility and lifestyle options. A rare and unique benefit of this location is its just 14 miles to the Wauchula Municipal Airport, a low-volume airport which serves mostly the needs of private and recreational aviation. An exceptional feature for aviation enthusiasts seeking convenient, private access. Despite the tranquil setting, the home remains only 20 minutes from the Lakewood Ranch area for grocery stores, dining, and conveniences. Bradenton is roughly 35 minutes away, Sarasota approximately 40 minutes, and Anna Maria Island’s world-class Gulf beaches just 50 to 55 minutes from your doorstep.
