Property Description

This expansive single-story manor, boasting 3 bedrooms plus den and 3 1/2 baths just under 3,500 square feet of air-conditioned living space, represents a masterclass in custom craftsmanship. Perched on a high-elevation, half-acre lot on one of the most desirable streets in The Forest Country Club, the home offers what is widely considered the most coveted view in the entire community—a rare vantage point where long fairways and shimmering lakes converge into a single, breathtaking panorama. This custom estate combines the security of a "built-up" foundation with the effortless flow of one-floor living, ensuring every major room remains connected to the stunning natural landscape.The architectural grandeur is immediate upon entry, where soaring ceilings, beefy millwork, and tall solid wood doors frame a sophisticated interior adorned with designer lighting and custom built-in cabinetry at every turn. At the heart of the home, a true chef’s kitchen features professional propane gas cooking and premium solid wood cabinetry. The thoughtful floor plan ensures every bedroom serves as a full en-suite featuring elegant travertine flooring and abundant storage.The transition to outdoor living is seamless and spectacular, leading to a resort-style backyard designed for elite entertaining. A massive lanai, protected by hurricane roll-down shutters, houses an enormous summer kitchen and multiple entertaining zones that offer both sun-drenched and shaded retreats. The custom pool and overspilling hot tub are enclosed in a newer pool cage, complemented by two dedicated pool baths and extra outdoor storage.Beyond the private circular driveway and oversized 2.5-car garage, the property boasts incredible value and peace of mind. Located West of 41, the home has never flooded and features a newer roof. The Master HOA fee of only $3,100 per year is remarkably inclusive, covering two full-time guarded gates, high-speed internet, and cable. While membership is optional with no waitlist, the Forest Country Club lifestyle is unparalleled, offering two incredible 18-hole championship courses—The Bobcat and The Bear—along side a wonderful tennis and pickleball program, bocce ball, a fitness facility, and a vibrant tiki bar. With fine dining and a robust calendar of social events year-round, this community provides a rare opportunity to enjoy an elite lifestyle on your own terms.
