Luxury lakefront home on the Winter Haven Chain of Lakes! A true luxury lakefront masterpiece on the shores of Lake Eloise, one of the most beautiful lakes on the world-famous Winter Haven Chain of Lakes. This architecturally stunning modern estate delivers more than 7,400 sq ft of interior living space with 7 bedrooms, 5 full baths, and 2 half baths, blending contemporary design, industrial-inspired details, and resort-style outdoor living. Commanding attention from the moment you arrive, the home features an elevated façade and dramatic dual staircase leading to an impressive open-concept great room with 28-foot ceilings, a full wall of glass, and sweeping panoramic lake views. Light-filled living spaces include a sunken formal living room with wood-burning fireplace, an expansive lower-level great room anchored by a suspended granite table, and a private media lounge opening to a peaceful courtyard. The chef-inspired kitchen is a showpiece of modern design with stainless-steel counters, frosted glass cabinetry, bar seating for twelve, and high-end Miele appliances—including dual dishwashers and an integrated espresso system. A 260-gallon saltwater aquarium and a fiber-optic starlit ceiling elevate the ambiance, all seamlessly integrated with the home’s smart automation system. Two primary suites—one on each level—feature spa-like baths and uninterrupted lake views. Additional guest suites include two private en-suite bedrooms and two connected by a stylish Jack-and-Jill bath. A seventh bedroom captures extraordinary water vistas, while an office/den provides flexibility for an eighth bedroom, playroom, or multigenerational living. The outdoor spaces rival a private resort, featuring a lakefront pool and spa, sandy shoreline, and a newly built summer kitchen with grill, pizza oven, kegerator, and sink. The private dock and boathouse offer an electric boat lift, dual jet ski lifts, and large sun deck—perfect for exploring the Chain’s 20+ lakes, waterfront dining, and seasonal LEGOLAND fireworks. Additional features include a two-car garage, dual carports for four vehicles, and an expansive paver drive. Recent updates include a new roof (2023), updated A/C units, and dual water heaters (2019). Ideally situated between Tampa and Orlando, this Lake Eloise estate delivers world-class waterfront living, bold architectural design, and a lifestyle unmatched anywhere else on the Winter Haven Chain of Lakes.
