A half-acre lot, a tranquil pond view and a private cul-de-sac location are just some of the features that make this Toll Brothers estate home so desirable. The attention to detail is evident from the moment you arrive: patterned paver driveway, the elegant pebbeled glass front door with flanking glass panels for added natural light, the tile roof, and elegant landscaping. Step inside to find peace in the warm neutral tones, with contemporary light fixtures and plenty of options for adding your own designer decorating choices. These luxury homes are known for their dramatic ceilings, and this is no exception, with a 21-foot high ceiling in the great room off the kitchen. For your convenience, there is a large, walk-in pantry, a butler's pantry and a wine fridge between the kitchen and formal dining room. The kitchen has under-mount lighting and a conduction cooktop. Off the spacious great room there is a screened-in porch, which flows out onto an additional pavered sitting area overlooking the pond. The yard is enclosed by a metal fence, keeping pets and kids in but not blocking the pond view. Recent updates include new ceiling fans and chandeliers, 5 new windows, a new washer and dryer, and the pavered driveway has been sanded and sealed. This home has a radiant barrier in the attic as well as foam insulation for efficiency. This beautiful, gated, east Orlando neighborhood consists of large, Mediterranean-style homes on oversized lots, with plenty of space in between. The location is convenient to the 417, close to UCF, Research Park, Siemens, Lockheed and Waterford Lakes. It is just 15 minutes to downtown Orlando.
