About This Property

Experience exceptional lakefront living where every day feels like a private retreat on Lake Crescent. This beautifully designed custom residence offers approximately 3,086 square feet, 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and 165 feet of shoreline on a private ski lake with exceptional water quality, delivering one of Windermere’s most desirable waterfront lifestyles. From the moment you arrive, the setting speaks for itself, tranquil water views, natural light, and an immediate sense of privacy and calm. A grand entrance with custom glass double doors opens into a spectacular great room where soaring vaulted ceilings and a dramatic wall of windows frame uninterrupted panoramic lake views, filling the home with natural light and creating a stunning first impression that defines the entire residence.
The open concept layout seamlessly connects the living room, dining area, and spacious kitchen, creating an inviting flow ideal for both relaxed everyday living and effortless entertaining, all while the lake remains the backdrop from nearly every main living space.
A truly distinctive feature of the home is its extraordinary collection of handcrafted stained-glass art installations. Rich jewel tones and custom artistic designs transform sunlight into ever-changing displays of color throughout the home, adding a level of artistry, warmth, and individuality rarely found in lakefront properties. The primary suite is positioned as a private sanctuary, offering soaring ceilings, peaceful lake views, and direct visual connection to the covered, screened lanai and lake beyond. The spa-inspired bath is designed for comfort and relaxation, featuring generous space and soft natural light. The expansive screened lanai overlooks the sparkling pool, spa, and poolside summer kitchen, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience designed for year round Florida enjoyment. Whether entertaining guests, enjoying quiet mornings, or unwinding at sunset, this outdoor space becomes an extension of the home itself. A private dock offers direct access to Lake Crescent, where boating, skiing, paddleboarding, kayaking, and fishing become part of everyday life. Set on a beautifully landscaped homesite offering privacy and exceptional waterfront exposure, this property combines single-story convenience with one of Windermere’s most captivating lakefront settings. Located just minutes from downtown Windermere, boutique shopping, dining, golf, and top-rated schools, it offers both seclusion and convenience in one of Central Florida’s most sought-after communities. Rare opportunities on Lake Crescent are limited and homes offering this level of waterfront frontage, architectural character, artistic detail, and true resort-style lake living are seldom available. This is more than a home, it is a lakefront lifestyle designed to be experienced.
