Windermere at its finest - elegantly appointed lakefront estate on the Butler chain in the gated country club community of Keene’s Pointe. Casa del Lago is a South-facing McNally custom home that has been expertly designed to allow the abundant natural light to accentuate its magnificent interior details while still offering privacy and astounding wooded and lake views over its almost 3-acre manicured grounds. Allow us to guide you through this lovely residence.
Arrival: a stately driveway leads to twin motor courts and garage parking for 4 cars and a golf cart.
Entry: a solid wood 10-foot portico door welcomes you into an elegant travertine-tiled central two-story gathering area with clerestory windows overlooking the pool and lake and a tall stone fireplace; acoustics from the open circular music lounge above, also with lake views, allows this space to be grand while still intimate.
Living: the East wing of the home opens into an expansive double island kitchen with custom wood cabinetry that masterfully houses the Wolf, Subzero and Miele appliances and the hammered copper farmhouse sink; the social heart of the home, it is accompanied by a pull-up kitchen bar and a delightful round breakfast nook with serving bar; it is adjoined on one side by the grand formal dining room (with walled courtyard) and flanked on the other by a cozy family room, all accented richly with hand-finished wood beams and woodworking details. Entertaining: leading off from the family room is the games room, ready for a full size pool table and card table and with its own pull-up bar, wine and beverage storage area, ice maker and separate media center; French doors open to the covered outdoor kitchen, dining and bar area with outdoor fireplace for the cooler nights and the large free-form pool, spa and deck; a 700-foot boardwalk leads to the lake where there is a dock with electric lifts for two jet skis and a boat, ready to explore the Butler chain of 13 lakes.
Resting: the West wing is home to the elegant primary suite with indoor and outdoor sitting areas and dual luxurious bathrooms enjoined by a spacious dressing room with central island; there is one additional ensuite bedroom on the first floor and three more suites on the second floor which can be reached by stairs or the private elevator.
Working/Studying: a large private office with walled flower-filled courtyard is located in the West Wing and there is a second office/homework room/hobby room on the second floor.
Club Access: Keene’s Pointe is home to the Golden Bear Club whose members enjoy access to the 18- hole Jack Nicklaus golf course as well as restaurants, bar, tennis, club pool, fitness center and a full agenda of year-round family-friendly activities and events.
All of this just minutes away from the charm of downtown Windermere and easy access to downtown Orlando’s best sporting and cultural events and the Orlando International Airport. Should you wish to expand the home or have more privacy, the vacant lot next door is also available (listed and priced separately). Your Casa del Lago awaits!
