About This Property

Nestled within the highly sought-after Markham Woods corridor, this exceptional estate is gracefully positioned on a quiet, tree-lined street in the serene enclave of Trilby Bend. Set on an expansive 2.6-acre homesite, the property offers a private, park-like setting surrounded by mature trees and the natural beauty of Florida’s landscape where deer, fox, owls, and native wildlife are often part of the view.

This one-owner residence reflects impeccable care and pride of ownership, with timeless curb appeal enhanced by lush landscaping, a circular drive, classic shutters, and a stately brick façade accented by four grand columns. From the moment you arrive, the home exudes warmth, charm, and enduring Southern elegance.

Enter through the striking stained-glass double doors into a welcoming formal living and dining space, where rich wood flooring and a cozy brick fireplace create an inviting atmosphere for both everyday living and refined entertaining.

At the heart of the home lies a beautifully appointed chef’s kitchen, thoughtfully designed to balance style and function. Outfitted with high-end appliances, a serving bar, and a center island, the space is highlighted by exotic Persian Treasure granite countertops, custom Cinnamon cabinetry, pendant lighting, a tiled backsplash, and a fully equipped butler’s pantry ideal for hosting with ease.

The spacious owner’s retreat offers a tranquil escape, filled with natural light from shuttered windows and designed for comfort and relaxation. The beautifully remodeled bath showcases a furniture-style vanity with granite countertops, an expansive walk-in shower with artistic tilework, and generously designed walk-in closets.

Throughout the home, thoughtful design elements enhance livability and flow, offering a layout that is both functional and accommodating for a variety of lifestyles.

French doors lead to an inviting lanai, while the Florida room featuring walls of glass and a warm wood-lined ceiling provides the perfect vantage point to take in sunset views over the pool and grounds. The sparkling pool is complemented by a charming gazebo and a relaxed, island-inspired cabana ideal for entertaining or unwinding in your own private retreat.

The beautifully maintained grounds extend the living experience outdoors, complete with a utility shed equipped with electricity for added convenience.

Ideally located, the Markham Woods corridor is renowned for its proximity to the Wekiva River, scenic bike trails, pristine golf courses, top-rated schools, and the Seminole Sports Complexoffering a rare blend of natural beauty and everyday convenience.
