About This Property

Privacy, water views, and five acres of freedom — welcome to the kind of property you rarely find in Central Florida.

Welcome to 8549 Hillcrest Drive in Groveland — a private 5-acre waterfront estate designed for space, entertaining, and elevated everyday living. This two-story residence immediately impresses with 12-foot ceilings, an open-concept layout, and expansive gathering spaces that feel both grand and inviting.

At the center of the home is a chef-inspired gourmet kitchen featuring dual sinks, a walk-in pantry, and abundant prep space, seamlessly connected to the main living area and indoor bar, creating the perfect environment for hosting unforgettable evenings.

The primary suite is privately positioned on the first floor and includes a dedicated workspace or office, blending comfort and productivity into one retreat. Just across the hall, a junior suite offers ideal guest accommodations. Upstairs, three additional suites provide generous living space and flexibility, making the home well-suited for multigenerational living or long-term guests.

Step outside and experience true Florida outdoor living. The oversized lanai with outdoor kitchen and beer tap overlooks a peaceful pond with a private beach area, creating a backyard experience that feels like a destination. Whether entertaining or enjoying quiet evenings, this space delivers.

The property continues to impress with a detached garage and workshop featuring a private room and bathroom, ideal for a guest suite, studio, office, or recreation space. Solar panels, a chicken coop, and five acres of usable land add both efficiency and flexibility to the property.

This is more than a home — it’s space, privacy, and lifestyle combined into one rare Central Florida opportunity.
