Property Details

Description

Waterfront Legacy Estate on 1.57 Acres with Dock, Bay Views & Income Potential An extraordinary waterfront sanctuary spanning 1.57 acres with more than 200 feet of pristine Bay frontage, this exceptional estate commands breathtaking views across Lemon Bay and offers a rare blend of privacy, elegance, lifestyle and long-term opportunity. Arrive through a gated entrance and sweeping circular drive to discover a secluded coastal retreat framed by mature, thoughtfully curated landscaping. Fully furnished and impeccably presented, the residence is designed for effortless waterfront living — whether hosting family gatherings, welcoming guests arriving by boat, or enjoying quiet mornings watching the water awaken from your private balcony. Inside, soaring 23-foot floor-to-ceiling windows create a dramatic sense of scale while perfectly capturing the shimmering Bay beyond. The open-concept great room flows seamlessly into the gourmet kitchen and refined dining space, ideal for entertaining on any scale. The chef’s kitchen is a showpiece, featuring brand-new premium appliances including double wall ovens, a warming drawer, wine cooler, French-style refrigerator, granite-adorned center island and bespoke finishes throughout. Four beautifully appointed bedrooms and three luxurious bathrooms include a serene primary suite with its own private water-view balcony — a peaceful haven overlooking the Bay. Outdoor living is equally compelling. Expansive decks spill toward the resort-style pool, newly upgraded equipment and sun-soaked entertaining zones creating a seamless indoor-outdoor experience. A brand-new metal roof provides both architectural finish and long-term peace of mind. At the water’s edge, a newly constructed private dock offers direct Bay access — perfect for cruising Lemon Bay, kayaking at sunrise, or welcoming friends arriving by boat for sunset drinks beside the pool. The lower level features walk-out access to the pool terrace along with a convenient laundry and pool bath, making entertaining and waterfront living completely effortless. A Rare Opportunity for Future Growth & Income Beyond its immediate lifestyle appeal, the expansive acreage presents outstanding potential for long-term wealth creation. The generous grounds invite consideration for a guest residence, subdivision or luxury retreat accommodation — opening the door to Airbnb income streams or multigenerational living in a premier waterfront setting (subject to local approvals). Optional membership to the Englewood Gardens Beach Club further elevates the offering, granting access to a private beachfront clubhouse, gazebo with gas grills, Bayfront kayak launch, storage facilities and complimentary beach parking. From sun-drenched afternoons by the pool to evening cruises across the Bay, every detail of this property has been designed to inspire tranquility, prosperity and lasting memories. This is more than a home. It is a waterfront legacy — a place where lifestyle, luxury and long-term vision converge.
