About this home
Open House this Saturday 1–3 PM & Sunday 1–4 PM! Includes a fully finished guest house apartment! Nestled on a picturesque, tree-lined street in the highly sought-after Lakelands community, this magnificent four-level residence seamlessly blends timeless elegance with modern sophistication. From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate the impeccable care and attention to detail that define this meticulously maintained and beautifully renovated home.
The state-of-the-art kitchen features sleek quartz countertops, a premium gas stove, and custom beige cabinetry—a chef’s dream. It opens effortlessly to the warm and inviting family room, anchored by a stunning 8' x 9' porcelain fireplace with a striking quartz mantel, creating the perfect setting for both relaxed living and elegant entertaining.
Rich hardwood floors flow throughout the main level, complementing the formal dining room adorned with a hand-stenciled floral floor pattern and a beautifully detailed ceiling. A dedicated home office/study with custom built-ins provides the ideal space for working from home.
Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite features a spa-like bath with a walk-in shower, freestanding designer soaking tub, glass shelving, and travertine flooring. The second floor also offers two additional smaller bedrooms, perfect for family or guests, as well as a hall bath finished in travertine to match the home’s refined design aesthetic.
An expansive top-floor bedroom with its own full en suite bath offers privacy and versatility, ideal for a guest retreat or multigenerational living. The rarely available finished lower level provides 1,060 sq ft of flexible living space—ideal for a media room, gym, or playroom—further enhancing the home’s footprint and functionality.
Above the garage, a fully finished legal apartment (ADU – Accessory Dwelling Unit) includes a private entrance, full bath, and carpeted living area—perfect as a home office, guest suite, or income-producing rental. The garage itself has been upgraded with an epoxy-finished floor and painted drywall, elevating even the utility spaces with thoughtful design.
With four thoughtfully designed levels, a separate guest house apartment, and luxury updates throughout, this residence is truly a 10++. Spectacular from top to bottom, it represents one of the most exceptional offerings in Lakelands today.
