Sophistication and elegance are the promise from this lakefront mansion in one of the most sought-after addresses in Central Florida, the Isleworth community, surrounding the Butler Chain of Lakes. Enter the secured gates to discover a vast house that is ideally suited to the sports enthusiast with ample space for entertaining all your pals.
Right from the palatial entrance hall guests will be entranced by your home – there are tall windows, high ceilings and space for chilling as well as both stairs and a lift to whisk you up or down to the other floors.
The main living space is an open-plan design, with a modern kitchen opening onto a breakfast bar and a casual seating area for those times when a drink or a cuppa are informally enjoyed.
Contemporary in style but convenient by design, the kitchen contains all the equipment needed to deliver meals as impressive as the house itself while still retaining an artistic edge. The light fittings above the main island are stunning unique pieces that set off the chrome and marble effect of the whole space.
There are further reception rooms – both formal and informal – that can be turned to whatever purpose suits the new owner, such as a dining room and some cosy lounges for knocking back with a good book. All the spaces are washed with light from multiple, large windows and patio doors that deliver the house a sense of space and an ease with flowing out to the patios and terraces surrounding the pool.
The 9,000 sq ft of living space goes on to include an office – for the sensible days – and a cinema and recreation room (for the fun days). Watching a film in the privacy of your own cinema is a superb way to spend an evening, although remember to shut the curtains or you may be tempted to shoot a few hoops…
Yes, because nestled down in the recreation area of this incredible house is an air-conditioned, full-sized basketball; a real bonus find in this area. The house also has a gym and a sauna, to help develop and then soothe the hoop-shooting muscles after a few hours on the court.
Five bedrooms and eight bathrooms deliver the accommodation for the household and your guests. The bedrooms are light-filled and spacious, all containing the artistic flourishers that is a theme across the rest of the house.
The master suite includes a large dressing area and a hidden shoe closet, as well as a washing machine and dryer to allow clothes to be laundered at ease. The bathrooms, both the en-suites and general, are exquisite and stylish, with all the most modern fittings added with baths and showers large enough for even the tallest basketball player on your team.
In such a stunning setting and with unbeatable Floridian weather, a lot of life will be lived outside. Perched as it is on the lake, this mansion provides a superb view of spectacular sunsets and the nightly Disney fireworks from one of the many comfortable seating areas gathered around the swimming pool. There is also an outdoor kitchen to make summer meals an experience to share with guests in the balmy summer air rather than cooped up inside.
The Isleworth community covers 600 acres, with the estate also including Isleworth Golf and Country Club (one of the Top 100 Platinum Clubs of the World) which provides a wealth of sporting activities as well as top-class dining and year-round activities for young people. There are also all the necessary concierge services that may be required.
The estate is around 50 mins drive from Florida beaches and Orlando International Airport is 22 miles away. Accessing Downtown Orlando takes about 30 mins by car, while the Mall at Millenia is just 20 mins drive: ideal for anything you can’t satisfy on the estate itself, but there won’t be many whims that can’t be catered for at this luxurious address.
