Introducing an Extraordinary 16+ Acre Estate Home: A harmonious blend of upscale living and serene country charm awaits you just a few miles from the vibrant cities of Leesburg, Mount Dora, Clermont, The Villages and only an hour or so to both Orlando or Tampa. This exclusive property boasts over 30,000 square feet under roof, making it a rare gem in the real estate landscape. As you enter through the gated and fenced property, you'll be greeted by large winding driveways leading around water features adorned with elegant fountains. The landscape evokes the grandeur of Southfork Ranch, reminiscent of the iconic television show "Dallas." The main home, spanning over 4400 square feet, offers climate-controlled living spaces and features over 2100 square feet of wrap-around porches and lanais. Upon reaching the entrance, one is compelled to pause, sipping sweet tea or lemonade in rocking chairs while taking in the panoramic views of nature and wildlife. The main living room impresses with soaring ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, and sliding glass doors that seamlessly bring in the beauty of the surrounding countryside. This remarkable property is designed for both entertaining and practicality. The main home comprises 5 full bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, including a spacious 675+ square foot party room with a wrap-around bar. The detached 2000 square foot garage offers versatility, with a loft and space for an in-law suite, ranch hand apartment, or exercise room, complete with separate HVAC. In addition to the main residence, a guest home spanning two stories and over 2000 square feet provides 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 2 kitchens – ideal for long-term rental income or accommodating visiting friends and family. The estate further includes several purpose-built structures, such as a 5160 square foot steel building (labeled show barn), a 1080 square foot tractor barn, and a substantial 12,500 square foot insulated steel building. For those with a penchant for automotive collections, there's ample space for storage in buildings equipped with bathrooms and large roll-up doors. Whether you envision hosting events, embracing the tranquility of country living, or enjoying the expansive wildlife, this exclusive property offers a unique blend of elegance, peace, and your very own slice of paradise. Don't miss the opportunity to make this exceptional estate your home.
