2021 Waterford Estates Drive

Description

Some homes offer a view. This one offers a way of life. Nestled on approximately 1.4 beautifully landscaped acres, this extraordinary lakefront retreat seamlessly blends luxury, privacy, and nature in perfect harmony. Extensively renovated inside and out, this is far more than a home—it's a private waterfront sanctuary designed for those who appreciate exceptional craftsmanship, resort-style outdoor living, and the freedom that only a property like this can provide. Wake each morning to panoramic views of Lake Waterford, one of the area's premier ski lakes, where boating, wakeboarding, paddleboarding, kayaking, and fishing become part of everyday life. Your dock, complete with water, electricity, and a boat lift, places the lake just steps from your back door. The grounds are professionally landscaped and showcase more than 800 plants, creating a lush botanical setting filled with flowers, butterfly habitats, and fruit trees including avocado, banana, lemon, lime, grapefruit, orange, mulberry, pomegranate, and passion fruit. Mature wooded buffers surround the property, creating privacy while attracting an abundance of wildlife including deer, wild turkeys, osprey, and bald eagles. It's a setting that feels worlds away while remaining just minutes from everything. Inside, nearly every major component of the home has been thoughtfully upgraded to create a residence that feels virtually new. Hurricane-rated windows and doors flood the home with natural light. Meanwhile, the whole-house 22kW Generac generator, heavy-gauge standing seam metal roof, dual HVAC systems, and whole-house water softener provide the long-term peace of mind buyers rarely find. New flooring throughout the home, complemented by solid-core interior doors, updated trim, fresh paint, designer lighting, remodeled bathrooms, upgraded kitchen appliances. French doors open to the dedicated home office just off the foyer and the ground-floor primary en-suite features two walk-in closets, a free-standing tub, dual vanities and walk-in shower. Designed for entertaining and everyday living, triple sliding glass doors open up the interior with the screened lanai overlooking the pool and lake. The resurfaced heated saltwater pool and spa create the centerpiece of an outdoor living space, while the fully equipped outdoor kitchen—featuring a Café beverage center, Big Green Egg, and propane cooktop—sets the stage for everything from family dinners to unforgettable gatherings with friends. Practicality hasn't been overlooked. A fenced backyard, storage shed, abundant interior storage, attic decking above the garage, a 50-amp garage outlet for an EV charger or workshop equipment, and professionally illuminated landscaping complete a property where every detail has been carefully considered. Although the setting feels wonderfully secluded, the home is ideally located east of I-95, placing NSB's pristine beaches, the boutiques and restaurants of historic Canal Street, and the vibrant dining, shopping, and nightlife of Flagler Avenue just minutes away. Here, you can spend the morning on the lake, enjoy lunch downtown, catch sunset on the beach, and be home in time for dinner by the pool. Luxury isn't measured by square footage. It's measured by mornings on the lake, evenings beneath the oaks, and the feeling that you've finally found a place you'll never want to leave.
