About this home

Set within the guarded, gated community of Lake in The Woods, where sophistication meets sanctuary, sitting at the edge of the lake, this custom-built residence commands its setting with a rare combination of architectural presence and understated refinement. The beautiful lake-view homesite offers unobstructed views to the water’s edge—close enough to enjoy the beauty of the lake, yet thoughtfully positioned for privacy, protection, and effortless living. A prominent brick facade, framed by double-height columns, a dramatic arched glass transom, and a leaded double entry, establishes a sense of arrival before the interior reveals itself. Beyond the soaring entry, the home unfolds around a gracious central plan, cathedral and elevated ceilings, and a sequence of glass-lined spaces that draw the western light and lake views deep into the living experience. Designed as much for private retreat as for gathering, the residence offers a distinctly considered one-story composition—intelligent split wings, multiple indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces, and an uninterrupted relationship between the living areas, pool, lanai and lake. Privately positioned on the south side of the home, the primary suite is a quiet retreat with west-facing sliders overlooking the pool and lake beyond. Afternoon light and evening reflections create a beautiful connection to the water, while the split-bedroom design provides thoughtful separation from the secondary bedrooms. Direct access to the outdoor living area extends the suite naturally into the Florida setting. At the heart of the home, the kitchen reflects a thoughtful mid-century modern influence, with clean lines, flat-panel cabinetry, warm finishes, and a layout designed for both everyday ease and entertaining. A well-positioned pass-through slider opens the kitchen to the outdoor living area, creating an effortless connection between the two spaces. Filled with natural light, it is a kitchen designed not just for cooking, but for gathering, conversation, and the way life is lived. Six strategically placed solar tubes transform the main living areas, channeling abundant natural daylight from the roof into the core of the home. As the sun moves, the quality and direction of light subtly shift across the interior; after sunset, the illuminated openings become part of the home’s evening character, creating a graceful transition from daylight to ambient glow.
