THE SETTING, AND THE DETAILS
A closer look.
Experience the kind of lakefront living that rarely becomes available — over 150 feet of direct frontage on Lake Gum, more than 1.2 acres of land, a private dock, detached workshop, and breathtaking sunset views all wrapped into one incredible property. From the moment you arrive at 2731 State Road 557, the setting immediately stands out with its expansive lawn, long driveway, mature landscaping, and commanding lake views stretching across the backyard. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, this custom home offers 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, multiple living spaces, and a layout that captures the beauty of the lake from throughout the home. The family room is filled with character featuring exposed wood beams, rich brick accents, a wood-burning fireplace, and large sliding glass doors that frame the water beyond. The kitchen offers wood cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and generous prep and storage space while opening naturally into the main living areas. One of the standout features of the property is the massive screened-in back porch overlooking the lake — an incredible space for entertaining, relaxing, or simply taking in the peaceful waterfront setting and spectacular sunset views that paint the sky across Lake Gum in the evenings. Just beyond the porch sits your private dock with covered seating, creating the ultimate setup for boating, fishing, sunset cruises, or enjoying the true Florida lake lifestyle. The property also includes a large detached garage/workshop that provides endless flexibility for hobbies, storage, lake toys, vehicles, RVs, boats, or even a potential workshop space. The oversized lot offers an incredible amount of usable yard space rarely found on lakefront homes, creating room to spread out and fully enjoy the property. Additional features include a whole-house generator, spacious indoor living areas, a bonus/game room, a 2-car attached garage, and ample parking for guests and recreational vehicles. Conveniently located near Interstate 4, this property offers easy access to both Tampa and Orlando while still maintaining the privacy and tranquility of lakefront living. Properties offering this combination of acreage, true lake frontage, usable outdoor space, private dock, detached workshop, and convenient Central Florida location rarely become available. This is more than just a home — it is a lifestyle property built around space, privacy, and waterfront living.
