Perched on 5 FULLY FENCED ACRES in the highly sought-after Sugarloaf Highlands community, this extraordinary estate offers a rare combination of LUXURY RENOVATIONS, a massive custom workshop, equestrian amenities, and exceptional FLEXIBILITY. Nestled within the rolling hills of the Sugarloaf Mountain region—one of Florida's highest elevations—this unique property provides the PRIVACY, FREEDOM, and SPACE that are becoming increasingly difficult to find.
Originally custom-built and extensively renovated, the home has been transformed into a bright, OPEN-CONCEPT RETREAT designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Public records reflect a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home. The current owners reimagined the upper level into an EXPANSIVE OWNER'S RETREAT, creating a spacious and flexible layout while preserving the home's unique character.
At the heart of the home is an OVERSIZED GRANITE ISLAND that anchors the gathering space and flows seamlessly into the chef-inspired kitchen featuring premium KITCHENAID STAINLESS STEEL APPLIANCES, a handcrafted COPPER FARMHOUSE SINK, and abundant workspace. The spacious living area is highlighted by a WOOD-BURNING STOVE with INTEGRATED COOKTOP, while windows and abundant natural light create a bright and inviting atmosphere throughout.
Occupying the entire upper level, the private owner's retreat serves as a peaceful sanctuary complete with WRAPAROUND BALCONY access overlooking the surrounding countryside and distant lake views. The elevated location provides beautiful sunset views and refreshing year-round breezes. The spa-inspired primary bath features a custom OVERSIZED SHOWER with DUAL SHOWER SYSTEMS, BODY SPRAY JETS, DUAL VANITIES, and elegant finishes. The guest bath offers a handcrafted COPPER SINK and relaxing SPA SOAKING TUB.
The property is equipped to support a wide variety of lifestyles and allows vehicles, trailers, and equipment to access virtually every area of the acreage with ease. Horse enthusiasts will appreciate the FENCED PASTURES, mature SHADE TREES, and custom-built HORSE STABLE with enclosed TACK ROOM.
One of the property's most impressive features is the OVERSIZED CUSTOM-ENGINEERED METAL GARAGE and workshop. Designed with high-clearance ceilings, electrical service, and abundant storage capacity, the structure easily accommodates boats, trailers, heavy equipment, car collections, workshops, and more. RV owners will also appreciate the existing RV HOOKUP with electric, water, and septic connections already in place.
Adding even more versatility, a detached AIR-CONDITIONED STUDIO/FLEX BUILDING offers ideal space for a home office, creative studio, hobby room, guest accommodations, or future in-law suite. Additional improvements include DUAL 220-VOLT ELECTRICAL HOOKUPS, whole-house surge protection, lightning protection systems, STORM SHUTTERS, GENERATOR-READY PROPANE INFRASTRUCTURE, a COMMERCIAL-GRADE WELL SYSTEM, SECURITY SYSTEM, and a CUSTOM ELECTRIC GATED ENTRANCE.
Conveniently located near shopping, dining, medical facilities, major roadways, and the SCENIC GREEN MOUNTAIN AREA, this exceptional property offers the perfect balance of peaceful country living and modern convenience. Whether you're seeking a luxury country estate, equestrian property, mini-farm, workshop enthusiast's dream, or simply room to live life on your own terms, this remarkable property delivers a lifestyle UNLIKE ANYTHING ELSE CURRENTLY AVAILABLE.
