One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Tucked away on Hempel Avenue is this one-story 6-bed, 3-bath, 3,900+ sq. ft oasis sitting on more than an acre of high and dry land. Entering the circular driveway, you are surrounded by mature oak trees and professionally designed landscaping. Through the entryway French doors, you will find a generously sized open concept kitchen, dining and living area with views of gorgeous Lake Olivia. The recently renovated kitchen boasts grey shaker cabinetry, white subway tile backsplash, brass fixtures, veined quartz counters and warm Saltillo tiles that all marry perfectly together. The kitchen also features quality stainless-steel appliances, including but not limited to a vintage Viking gas range oven and commercial grade hood. The family room offers a cathedral ceiling with a richly stained wooden accent beam, and built-in shelving that perfectly frames the stone-faced wood-burning fireplace, creating a warm and inviting space. Adjacent to the dining room is an enclosed family room with three sets of French doors leading out to the outdoor living space. The owner’s wing boasts a large picture window with sweeping lake views, French doors that provide sparking views of the pool, a bathroom with two vintage-style vanities, a standup steam shower stall and jetted tub combination, a walk-in closet, AND a flex room that could be used as a home office, a gym, a nursery, an art studio, or even more closet space for fashion collectors – the possibilities are endless! Across the home is an additional flex room with private exterior access and a kitchenette space that can be used as an in-law suite. The backyard is a true-Florida paradise with a massive in-ground pool with extended patio, a rolling lawn framed by oak trees, and picture-perfect views of one of Central Florida’s best ski lakes! As you make your way down towards the lake shore, to the left of the lawn you will find mature fruit trees producing avocados and guavas. Lake Olivia is an 87-acre, private lake that currently has a slalom course along the north shore. The lake’s unique position has allowed it to be shielded by hills on all sides, which helps to block wind and provides excellent skiing conditions for professional and recreational skiers alike. If you prefer a more tranquil pastime, this beautiful spring-fed lake is brimming with aquatic life and welcomes you to drop a fishing line off your very own covered boat dock with an electric lift and water supply for convenient boat maintenance. The home also includes an added 3-phase power system, connected to the boat dock and lawn pump, ideal for those with affinity to industrial tools, woodworking and car repairs. The exterior features include a side-entry, oversized 2-car garage, and a new metal roof installed in 2019 that is made to appear as tile. The adjacent vacant lot to the north is also for sale (MLS ID: R4905211), providing an opportunity to purchase both for those who would like to construct a true lakefront estate. Within walking distance to Gotha’s Yellow Dog Eats, with easy access to all commuter highways (15 minutes to Downtown Orlando), you do not want to miss this opportunity of a lifetime!!
