Set behind a private gated entrance on approximately 4.3 total acres, with roughly half of the property consisting of dry land and the balance extending into Lake Howell, this remarkable estate offers a rare combination of privacy, space, and direct lake access, yet remains just minutes from the charm of Park Avenue, Interlachen Country Club, shopping, dining, and everything Winter Park has to offer. Lake Howell provides a spectacular backdrop for everyday living and entertaining, with opportunities for boating, fishing, water sports, sunset cruises, and unforgettable days on the water. The property features its own private boat ramp, boathouse, and boat dock, making lake life exceptionally convenient. The grounds are designed for both grand entertaining and relaxed family living. A massive detached barn offers an incredible flexible space for private events, parties, gatherings, game nights, or simply creating your own ultimate entertainment venue. Fully air conditioned and featuring high ceilings, the barn provides room for additional vehicles, RVs, boats, recreational equipment, and more. It also includes a private gym and bathroom, making it a versatile addition to the property. For RV enthusiasts, the property features a full 50 amp RV hookup with water and sewer hookups. The property is Agriculture zoned and allows horses. A separate four-car detached garage with workshop provides substantial storage and workspace. A generator adds convenience and peace of mind. The expansive fenced grounds offer plenty of room for family, pets, recreation, and outdoor activities, including a large playset and a firepit with comfortable seating—the perfect setting for cool evenings, roasting marshmallows, sharing stories, and making memories together.
