From the moment you arrive, handcrafted timber details, natural stone accents, and inviting front porch creates a sense of warmth rarely found in newer construction. Inside, soaring wood ceilings, exposed pecky cypress beams, custom built-ins, and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace make this house both elegant and welcoming.

The flexible floor plan offers six bedrooms and six baths, including two private owner's suites on the main level, making the home ideal for multi-generational living, long-term guests or one of many private spaces. Upstairs, 4 spacious secondary bedrooms and a large over-garage flex room provide endless possibilities as a home fitness studio, media room, hobby space, or home office. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a large covered porch, a wood-burning fireplace, outdoor kitchen, cabana bath, Tiki hut, circular fire pit, designed for year-round enjoyment. The backyard offers ample room to design the custom pool, allowing the next owner to create a backyard tailored to their lifestyle rather than inheriting someone else's design. Additional highlights include a newer roof (2024), commercial grade fire suppression, an oversized three-car garage with exceptional storage and workspace, and the opportunity to add a front gate for enhanced privacy off Main St. Storm hardy with underground electrical utility lines and public water. This is a home has been meticulously maintained and for buyers who appreciate exceptional craftsmanship, enduring quality, and the unique lifestyle that only Historic Windermere offers. Take a short stroll to the Downtown Redevelopment Project and shop at Victoria Jewelers, Ace Hardware, Solvino Wine Bar and Fresco's, one of Dr. Phillips' favorite Italian restaurants, adding even more charm and convenience to this incredible location.
