Property Description
An extraordinary brand-new contemporary lakefront estate on prestigious LAKE BUTLER, part of the renowned Butler Chain of Lakes, offering an exceptional blend of architectural sophistication, modern luxury, and unparalleled waterfront living. Situated on approximately 0.83 acres with 114 feet of pristine lake frontage, this remarkable residence was designed to capture breathtaking panoramic water views, spectacular sunrises, and unforgettable sunsets from nearly every major living space. Encompassing 6,457 square feet of heated living area, the home seamlessly integrates architecture and landscape through expansive walls of glass, soaring ceilings, refined finishes, and an abundance of natural light. Every space was carefully oriented to maximize the connection between the interior and the surrounding waterfront setting. The designer chef's kitchen showcases premium Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, custom European cabinetry, an oversized waterfall island, Italian marble accents, and contemporary finishes, making it both a stunning focal point and an ideal space for entertaining. Designed for flexibility and comfort, the residence features six private bedroom suites, including two luxurious primary suites-one conveniently located on the main level and another on the second floor. Both primary retreats offer spa-inspired bathrooms with elevated finishes, expansive custom closets, premium TOTO fixtures, and living spaces that blend comfort and sophistication.

Outdoor living is equally impressive, featuring expansive covered lanais, a summer kitchen, saltwater pool and spa, and a private two-level covered dock equipped with water, electricity, and a boat lift. Designed for the ultimate waterfront lifestyle, the dock accommodates a 25-foot boat and two jet skis while providing direct access to the Butler Chain of Lakes, one of Central Florida's most sought-after boating destinations. Constructed with exceptional attention to detail, the residence features concrete block construction on the main level, metal-frame construction on the second floor, DensGlass exterior sheathing for enhanced durability and weather resistance, energy-efficient TPO roofing, advanced spray foam insulation, four Daikin variable-speed HVAC systems with a combined 20-ton capacity, and natural gas tankless water heaters with recirculation technology. The garage is also equipped with dual 220V outlets for future EV charging capability. Located within the historic Town of Windermere, residents enjoy a unique golf-cart-friendly lifestyle with access to community parks, tennis courts, playgrounds, private lake amenities, and charming tree-lined streets, and the added benefit of no HOA, all while being just minutes from Orlando's finest dining, shopping, world-class golf, and top-rated private schools.
