About this home
Welcome to this lakefront retreat with a private guest suite with direct access to Phillippi Creek located in Southgate! This is a rare opportunity to own private waterfront with access to scenic Phillippi Creek and the Intracoastal Waterway. This exceptional property combines timeless design, modern upgrades and Florida indoor-outdoor living, all with no history of hurricane water intrusion, according to the owner. From the moment you arrive, the home’s curb appeal impresses with a circular driveway, paver walkways, an additional paver parking pad, mango and avocado trees and a fully fenced setting surrounded by lush, mature landscape. Enter through stunning French doors with stained glass into a bright, tropical-inspired entry. Inside, the open-concept living space is expansive and inviting, anchored by a gas fireplace and enhanced by updated windows that fill the home with natural light. The chef’s kitchen is functional and stylish, featuring a curved stone countertop and bistro-height seating, Murano glass pendants and recessed lighting, a six-burner natural gas cooktop and stainless-steel appliances, including a Bosch dishwasher. Designed for entertaining, the outdoor living area is exceptional. Enjoy an expansive paver patio with a tranquil wall-mounted fountain and a summer kitchen with a gas grill, refrigerator, sink, single gas burner and an exterior-vented commercial-grade hood. The backyard overlooks serene views of Lake Seclusion and the dock. Watch the ducks, herons, egrets, cormorants and leaping fish. The primary suite is a private sanctuary, spacious, light-filled and surrounded by glass sliders opening to the patio with peaceful water views. Features include dual oversized walk-through closets, an elegant en suite bath with split vanities, granite countertops, a jetted soaking tub on an elevated platform and a walk-in shower with glass block detail and water closet. Further highlights in this wing are two more large bedrooms with a shared bath, walk-in shower and pedestal sink. Another standout feature of this home is the fully equipped multigenerational living suite/home office/artist studio complete with a private entrance and courtyard, separate air-conditioning system and kitchen with appliances. The suite has a living room/bedroom combo and a full bath with a new tile shower and linen closet. Connecting the guest suite with the three bedrooms and two baths is a spacious butler's pantry with a full-size refrigerator and wine chiller as well as a washer, dryer, utility sink and extensive storage. The oversized attached garage has an updated automatic door opener motor, cabinets and shelving. In the backyard are the Rinnai tankless gas water heater, a well-fed irrigation system, exterior lighting, a private outdoor shower and a small storage shed. The roof was replaced in 2022 and one of two AC units was replaced the same year. This is more than a home; it’s a private retreat offering flexibility, functionality and exceptional waterfront living plus the option of income production. It is minutes from downtown, the beach and shopping without the inconvenience of bridges or seasonal traffic. The desirable neighborhood is quiet and stable with mature trees lining the gently curving street. Remarkably, this house has had only three owners, a sign of how special it is to live there....
