About This Property
Privately positioned on 1.62 acres along one of the most sought-after corridors of Markham Woods Road in Longwood, this exceptional property presents a rare opportunity to enjoy space, flexibility, and modern upgrades without the restrictions of an HOA. Tucked behind private entry gates at both the front and rear of the property, the estate offers a unique sense of privacy and convenience while remaining just moments from the boutique shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences of both Longwood and Lake Mary. With immediate access to Interstate 4 and the 417/429 beltways, downtown Orlando, regional hospitals, area attractions, and the beaches are all within easy reach.
Significantly renovated and thoughtfully improved since 2021, the property combines peace of mind with modern comfort. The main residence spans five bedrooms and three and a half baths and has been extensively updated with all new plumbing, new flooring throughout, fresh interior and exterior paint completed in 2025, and stylish new sinks, fixtures, and lighting throughout. The kitchen is complemented by all new appliances, while two new high-efficiency HVAC systems installed in 2026 and a 2022 roof further enhance the home’s long-term value and efficiency. The irrigation is provided by dedicated well
Beyond the main residence, a detached, near 1,000 sf one-bedroom, one-bath guest house with a spacious kitchenette and an enormous great room provides incredible versatility for multigenerational living, visiting guests, a private office, or extended stay accommodations. Outdoors, the expansive grounds offer a remarkable amount of parking and storage potential, including room for recreational vehicles, boats, trailers, or car collections, complemented by a dedicated 30-amp RV outlet. The oversized property also provides ample room to create a future resort-style pool and outdoor entertaining environment tailored to your vision.
Rarely does a property combine acreage, extensive renovations, gated privacy, guest accommodations, and a premier Markham Woods Road address with such exceptional connectivity to Central Florida’s most desirable destinations in one compelling offering.
