Located in an exclusive, gated (equestrian optional) community just 30 min from downtown Orlando and 15 min from UCF, this stunning home is move-in ready. Your complete privacy is ensured as this distinctive, Traditional home is concealed on a heavily wooded 5 acre estate property.* This spacious home is elegant yet comfortable. While designed for entertaining, it also provides the perfect private retreat.
The heavily wooded property provides complete privacy from the roadway. The gated circular drive provides a dramatic approach to this beautifully detailed home. The home and yard are completely fenced just inside the wood line from the well kept, mature landscaping that includes numerous oak trees.
