This sprawling five-bedroom, six-bath estate sits on 1.1 acres at the edge of sparkling Lake Keystone. Built in 2009, and with 6870 heated square feet, this home represents the best of lakeside luxury. The arched entryway welcomes you atop a gated circular drive, flanked by a six-car garage. The main floor boasts marble floors and vaulted ceilings against a wall of glass doors and windows providing unparalleled lake views. A chef’s dream, the kitchen offers state-of-the-art amenities and ample counter space, along with plenty of seating. The master suite includes an oversized walk-in closet and lake-facing French doors, and the master bath boasts matching vanities, a whirlpool tub, and a walk-in shower with dual showerheads. The home also has three fireplaces, two wet bars, a recessed balcony, an office, and a ten-seat home theater. Outside, the spacious lakeside lanai is ready-made for entertaining, and a fully outfitted outdoor kitchen with a gas grill has everything you need to host your next barbecue. On hot summer days the inground pool beckons, while cooler evenings are perfect for watching the sunset from the jacuzzi. Living on a 434-acre ski lake means lots of opportunities for water sports, whether it’s boating, skiing, or fishing. The double-decker dock offers boat parking and even more outdoor space for entertaining or simply sunbathing. When you’re in the mood for something more fast-paced, it’s only a 25-minute drive to Downtown Tampa to enjoy restaurants, bars, and entertainment, including the scenic Tampa Riverwalk. Living in Tampa means having your choice of beaches, but a couple of favorites—Clearwater Beach and St. Pete Beach—are each only 45 minutes away. For bigger trips, the Tampa International Airport is only a 25-minute drive. But while travel is fun, there is nothing quite as rewarding as returning home to the comfort and elegance of your own lakeside property.
