Property Description:This very, very special property is entered through wrought-iron gates with the view of manicured lawns, mature trees and a 3/4 acre pond. The pond is extensively landscaped with water iris, canna and tropical lilies, which invites visiting egrets, herons and duck from time to time. A circular motor court fronts the gracious 9,700 sq. ft. main house. Across the pond is a charming self-contained guest house with wood-burning fire place, living room and its own little kitchen. The long verandah of the main house and a similar verandah, which is found across the back of the house, allow passive solar protection from sun in the summer and cold in the winter. Both provide charming alternative areas for outdoor dining for the family or for larger parties. Entering the main house through leaded glass doors, there is a rotunda area with ferns and palms giving the feeling of a small garden conservatory. The spacious living room with fireplace is connected to a floor-to-ceiling cherry wood library also with fireplace. There is a family room with wet bar and fireplace, a 1,200 plus bottle refrigerated wine cellar, and a splendid dining room, connected to a large butler's pantry with considerable storage. The cheerful kitchen boasts rare Brazilian blue granite counter tops, hand-painted French tiles and an indoor gas grill. A stone floored garden room or a children's playroom, looks out on the rose garden and can be accessed directly to the swimming pool area where there is a gas barbeque and additional dining areas. The house has three large bedrooms with baths plus a spacious master suite, an exercise room/office which overlooks the rolling lawns and tennis court. The seven-car garage plus storage room is attached and easily accessible through the laundry room. In addition, there is a separate 33' x 20' free-standing artist's studio, a large four stall barn with turnouts, caretakers' apartment, tack room, washstall, and a 120' x 150' sand riding ring. There is also a flat grass paddock with shelter (large enough for a kids' soccer field). A gated service driveway provides ample parking for estate vehicles. The property of approximately 12 acres includes a citrus grove of more than 500 trees which gives real privacy to a true estate.This listing is held by: |
