Description

Under contract-accepting backup offers. Virtually Staged. One of the only large-lot, water-facing estate homes in Baldwin Park, offering a level of privacy, scale, and setting that rarely becomes available. Tucked along one of the neighborhood’s most desirable streets, this Mediterranean-style residence spans over 5,300 SF on more than one-third acre, with tranquil water views and no rear neighbors, creating a true retreat within the heart of the community. A private front courtyard with a gas fireplace provides a warm and inviting setting equally suited for quiet evenings or relaxed gatherings.
Inside, the home balances warmth and sophistication with hardwood and travertine flooring, custom finishes, and natural light pouring in through expansive windows and French doors. The great room anchors the home with a gas fireplace and built-ins, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and hosting...featuring marble countertops, custom cabinetry, a full Viking appliance suite, two oversized islands, a walk-in pantry, and a butler’s pantry with dry bar. An adjacent family/media room offers a more relaxed gathering space. The first-floor primary suite is privately positioned with peaceful pool and water views, a sitting area, and a spa-like bath with soaking tub, walk-in shower, dual vanities, and an oversized custom closet. A secondary bedroom with en-suite bath, dedicated office, laundry room, and pool bath complete the main level. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms, two with en-suite baths, are complemented by a spacious bonus lounge or retreat with built-in workspace. Outdoor living is where this home truly shines. A covered, screened lanai with lounge area, dining space, and summer kitchen overlooks a resort-style pool and spa with dual fire features all set against a serene pond backdrop. Additional highlights include a deep tandem "4-car garage", updated HVAC systems, upgraded electrical, updated plumbing, custom drapery and plantation shutters on all windows, whole-home audio, and full irrigation. Located in Baldwin Park, this home enjoys a rare position on a quiet, low-traffic street surrounded by other luxury residences, offering a level of privacy and calm that is increasingly hard to find within the community. Just steps away, you’ll find the neighborhood’s vibrant downtown district with its shops, dining, and everyday conveniences, along with scenic trails along Lake Baldwin, community pools, parks, and a fitness center. Ideally situated, the home is also just minutes from Winter Park, Orlando, and both Orlando International Airport and Orlando Sanford International Airport.
