Under contract-accepting backup offers. 6 Bedrooms/4.5 Bathrooms-One-of-a-Kind Custom Home with Expansive Views and Modern Upgrades
Tucked away in a private, maturely landscaped area of Longwood with no mandatory HOA, this stunning home offers a unique blend of modern luxury and natural serenity. Situated on a prime lot with an adjacent manicured open lot on one side and breathtaking water and conservation views, this home is truly a hidden gem.
Originally a 2,000+ sq. ft. residence with 4 bedrooms and 3 baths, the current owners have doubled the square footage with a thoughtfully designed addition completed in 2022 by Campbell Bowen. The expansion includes a third car garage, a spacious second floor with a loft, two additional bedrooms, and a full bathroom, all seamlessly integrated into the home’s design. The addition also included a new, spacious primary suite, tucked away privately in a split floor plan from the other bedrooms. A windowed gallery hall leads to the serene retreat, which features a walk-in closet and a spa-like en-suite bathroom.
Inside, the open-concept kitchen is a dream, featuring stainless steel appliances, stone countertops, a five-burner gas stove with double ovens, and a cozy breakfast nook with picturesque views of the wooded water area. For additional dining there is a large dining room with views of the natural surroundings and the kitchen breakfast bar for a casual bite. Throughout the home, you'll find wide-plank light oak luxury vinyl flooring, upgraded porcelain tile in all bathrooms, high baseboards on both levels, statement lighting, recessed lighting, and elegant tray ceilings in the front den and living rooms. A spacious walk-in pantry, a whimsical laundry room, and a functional mudroom with built-in lockers and drawers provide ample storage and organization.
As part of the renovation, an additional powder room bathroom was added on the main level, complementing the original and pool bath. Not an inch of this home’s interior was left untouched by the current owners, ensuring a modern, cohesive aesthetic throughout.
Significant upgrades have been made both inside and out, including an encapsulated basement crawl space with a sump pump, raised exterior A/C units to prevent moisture issues, and three A/C units (two from 2022, one from 2019) for optimal climate control. The home also features a leased propane system that fuels the five-burner gas stove and ovens and hot tub heater, a new septic system installed in 2022, public water service, and an irrigation system for lush landscaping. The roof was updated in 2016 on the original home and in 2022 for the addition, while the solar pool heater (2017) and spa heater (2022) ensure year-round enjoyment.
Designed with intention and an eye for custom details, this home was meant to be the owners’ forever home—now it can be yours. Homes like this simply don’t exist anywhere else!
