Positioned alongside the highly desirable Lake Weir, this stunning property is a wonderful showcase of Central Florida’s luxurious waterfront living. Within a small, gated community and accented by privacy hedging and mature palm trees, the home has a classic Florida beach-house appearance with California-inspired flair thanks to Ipe wood privacy fencing. Offering a total of 3-bedrooms and 3.5-baths, the home features an open floor plan, wood accents, and stunning views of the lake throughout. A floor-to-ceiling electric fireplace and sliding glass doors with picture-perfect views serve as focal points in the main living space. The kitchen features ample cabinet storage and counter space, stainless steel appliances, a wet bar, and breakfast bar. Adjacent to the kitchen is the dining area, which includes contemporary light fixtures and easy access to the pool area from sliding glass doors on two walls. One of the bedrooms is located on the first floor and features its own private en-suite, built-in shelving, and direct access to the back patio. Walk up the wood-accented staircase to the second floor to a bright landing that offers access to two bedrooms (or potential office space!) including the master suite, both complete with private en-suites and large walk-in closets. The master suite is extra spacious with a larger layout and a private en-suite with dual vessel sinks and glass door shower, plus a huge walk-in closet with comprehensive shelving system and island. A fully enclosed second-story lanai provides a wonderful space to relax and take in the views. To the back of the home is a huge enclosed patio that features a sparkling pool, a full summer kitchen with TV, and a covered area with ceiling fans and ample room for seating. Sliding screen doors open up to the backyard beyond, all leading to the stunning waters and white sand beaches of Lake Weir. Offering 5,685 acres of fresh water, Lake Weir is the perfect place to enjoy abundant animal life, fishing and boating opportunities, and much more. Several restaurants, schools, and shopping options are located nearby, and both The Villages and Ocala are just a short drive away for even more variety and additional medical options. If you’re dreaming of waterfront living at its finest, look no further!
