About this home

Some homes are beautiful. Others become a legacy. Every arrival feels unforgettable. A winding drive through meticulously maintained Italian-inspired gardens leads to a stately hand laid imported Chicago brick motor court, where timeless Mediterranean architecture and exceptional craftsmanship immediately set this estate apart. Set on approximately 250 feet of crystal clear, sand bottom shoreline on Lake Jackson, this extraordinary waterfront residence offers over 14,000 total square feet, breathtaking sunsets, a private beach and an unmatched lakefront lifestyle. From the quality of construction to the irreplaceable waterfront setting, this is a property that simply could not be duplicated today, all with no HOA. Designed to maximize panoramic lake views from nearly every major living space, the home welcomes you with 30 foot floor to ceiling windows, a grand limestone fireplace and an elegant wet bar overlooking the water. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen was designed for everyday living and effortless entertaining, featuring premium appliances including an 8-burner gas range, double ovens, two dishwashers, warming drawers, built-in refrigerator, pot filler, oversized island and custom cabinetry. The private owner's wing offers a true retreat with a fireplace, lakefront sitting room, morning room, separate custom walk in closets, private laundry and a luxurious his and hers bath with separate vanities and water closets. Four additional ensuite bedrooms provide exceptional accommodations for family and guests, including a private lakefront casita with its own entrance, kitchenette and luxurious bath. For the automotive enthusiast, few private residences can compare. A climate controlled 10 car garage with showroom quality finishes, a full air conditioned workshop, oversized climate controlled storage and additional covered parking for approximately six vehicles create an exceptional collector's retreat. Just minutes from Sebring International Raceway, spend the day at one of the world's most iconic road courses before returning home to your own extraordinary private waterfront retreat. Outdoor living is exceptional. Approximately 250 feet of pristine Lake Jackson frontage, a private sand beach, expanded two story boathouse with newer lift, resort style pool, outdoor kitchen, fireplace, firepit and a spectacular hand painted gazebo imported from Mexico and assembled on site create a setting that feels more like a private resort than a residence. Spanning nearly 3,200 acres, Lake Jackson is one of Florida's premier recreational lakes, offering exceptional boating, fishing, water sports, breathtaking sunsets and the unique ability to accommodate seaplane access. Additional luxury amenities include a climate controlled wine cellar, private theater, elevator, two story executive office with custom built ins, upstairs gathering room with coffee/cocktail bar, spacious laundry with pet washing station, hurricane impact windows, cantilever construction, custom 10 foot doors, hand painted ceilings and artisan craftsmanship throughout. Homes can be renovated. Homes can be expanded. But approximately 250 feet of crystal clear Lake Jackson shoreline, a private beach and an estate of this caliber simply cannot be recreated. More than a luxury home, this is a legacy estate unlike any other. Private showings by appointment. Discover why estates of this caliber rarely become available.
