unique lakefront property
A stunning, unique lakefront property is now on the market for the first time on picturesque Lake Gertrude. Positioned on a beautiful 1-acre lot with 115 feet of lake frontage, complete with a boardwalk and dock, this masterfully crafted California Contemporary home boasts exceptional design and intricate details throughout. The property offers unparalleled indoor and outdoor areas. The expansive front yard opens to a circular driveway leading to a stone-crafted, covered entrance flanked by 8-foot glass panels beside the wooden double doors. These open into an impressive, curved foyer with soaring 16-foot ceilings, highlighted by stone water feature and a 16-foot-high double-sided stone fireplace separating a spacious living room and family room. The living room features 7-foot double casement windows offering unobstructed views of the lake, while the family room has sliding doors leading to a vast screened pool and patio area. The high ceilings continue throughout the lower open living space, separated by 9-foot partition walls, yet the design allows for ample light due to clerestory windows along the top of the 16-foot exterior walls. The master suite is a luxurious expanse of nearly 1,000 square feet, including a large bedroom, two bathrooms, and two spacious walk-in closets. Above the master suite is an open loft, accessible via a staircase from the living room, measuring 437 square feet and offering panoramic views of the lower living spaces. The outdoor patio is extensive, featuring a beautiful pool with a hot tub and fountain. The two downstairs bedrooms boast spacious walk-in closets and share a Jack and Jill bathroom. Each bedroom features doors that open to individual screened patios. The expansive laundry room offers ample storage and workspace, connecting to a distinct workshop room accessible also through the side-entry garage. While homes on Lake Gertrude in Mt. Dora are noteworthy, this one is particularly remarkable.
