Under contract-accepting backup offers. Positioned on the first hand-selected homesite within the exclusive Reserve enclave of Heathrow, 1489 Langham Terrace commands one of the extraordinary vantage points overlooking Lake Irish. From this elevated setting, tranquil water views alive with native wildlife stretch across the horizon, culminating each evening in breathtaking sunsets reflected across the lake. The setting is further elevated by a newer tile roof and a spectacular infinity-edge pool where water appears to merge seamlessly with the lake beyond. Tiki flame pits and a waterfall pergola create a captivating resort atmosphere ideal for unforgettable evenings of outdoor entertaining. Spanning an impressive 5,318 square feet of living space, this distinguished estate represents one of the largest residences in The Reserve and occupies what is widely considered the community’s most desirable homesite. Offered for sale for the first time, the property presents a rare opportunity to own a signature residence in one of Central Florida’s sought-after guard-gated communities. Along the northern corridor of Heathrow, residents enjoy effortless access to major thoroughfares, Lake Sawyer Park, and the renowned Heathrow Golf and Country Club. Membership opportunities range from social and racquet sports to championship golf, including the exceptional dual membership privileges with the Legacy Club at Alaqua Lakes, providing access to 36 holes of premier golf. Equally compelling is the home’s placement within the highly regarded school zones of Heathrow Elementary School and Markham Woods Middle School, adding another dimension of desirability to this extraordinary location. Crafted by Hillcrest Homes, the residence immediately impresses with a circular brick paver drive, lush landscaping and a spacious side-entry garage that complement the home’s refined architectural presence. A welcoming fountain greets guests, while the grand entry reveals sweeping views of the pool and Lake Irish beyond. Inside, timeless travertine flooring, graceful arches, custom millwork and curated materials create an atmosphere of bespoke elegance throughout. The owner’s wing serves as a private sanctuary, featuring a spacious bedroom crowned by illuminated tray ceilings, plantation shutters, dual walk-in closets, and a luxurious spa-inspired bath with soaring ceilings and a striking center-jetted tub. At the heart of the home, the kitchen and family room blend seamlessly, highlighted by custom cabinetry and panoramic lake views that frame daily living with natural beauty. Upstairs, entertainment takes center stage in the expansive game room, complete with a wet bar and a private balcony overlooking the water. A purpose-built home theater offers a cinematic experience, while an adjacent lounge leads to a second primary suite appointed with a soothing steam shower, generous walk-in closet and private study. Life in Lake Mary extends well beyond the gates of Heathrow. Residents enjoy convenient access to boutique shopping, acclaimed dining and charm of nearby historic Sanford. Major employment centers, regional hospitals, Orlando’s renowned attractions and Florida’s beautiful beaches are all within easy reach. This is lakefront living elevated by privacy, prestige and the extraordinary lifestyle that has made Heathrow one of Central Florida’s celebrated communities.
