GOLF COURSE LUXURY HOME IN GUARD-GATED ALAQUA LAKES. Set on a half-acre golf course homesite in one of Seminole County's most sought-after communities, this five-bedroom, five-bath, 4,648 square foot custom residence pairs a 2005 floor plan with a long list of current updates. Tile roof, stone and stucco elevation, mature professional landscaping, and a circular paver driveway to a covered portico with double glass entry doors. Inside, columns and arches frame the formal living and dining rooms, a linear fireplace anchors the living room, and volume and tray ceilings carry light through the plan. The remodeled kitchen is built for real cooking and real crowds: a large stone-topped center island with seating for four, extensive raised-panel cabinetry, a professional gas cooktop under a stainless hood, stone slab backsplash, a stacked pair of built-in wall ovens, and a butler's pantry running through to the dining room. It opens the other way to a breakfast nook and a family room with floor-to-ceiling built-ins and sliders to the lanai. The primary suite is on the main floor with a private sitting area, two walk-in closets, and a fully remodeled spa bath featuring a freestanding soaking tub, oversized slab walk-in shower, and dual vanities with backlit mirrors. A second bedroom with its own bath is also on the main level, with three more bedrooms, two more remodeled baths, and a second living area upstairs. Also inside: a dedicated office with built-in workstations, a sitting and TV room with full bar cabinetry, and a three-car attached garage with finished floor and room for the golf cart. Outside, a columned covered lanai spans the rear of the home with space for dining, lounging, and a fire table. The screened in-ground pool and spa feature a rock waterfall grotto and expansive paver deck, backed by a private lawn, mature trees, and the golf course beyond. Recent HVAC replacement across three systems. Alaqua Lakes residents enjoy a 24-hour manned gate, a seven-acre park with resort-style pool and open-air pavilion, Har-Tru clay tennis, basketball, sand volleyball, playground, and multipurpose field, all set around a championship golf course. Minutes to I-4, SR 417, SR 429, the Heathrow business district, and Orlando Sanford International. Schedule your private showing.
