Description

One-of-a-kind Charles Clayton masterpiece perfectly positioned on a 1-acre golf-front homesite in Seminole County's premier 24-hour guard-gated neighborhood of Alaqua. Highlighting the very best of time-honored architecture and old-world craftsmanship, no detail has been overlooked nor expense spared in the construction of this palatial estate spanning nearly 9,000 square feet. Arrive via a fully brick-paver drive to incredible 12' tall solid wood double front doors and immediately be amazed by a nearly 30' high ceiling and dual circular stairways in the grand entry. Featuring 6+ bedrooms, 9 bathrooms(5 full, 4 half), office/library, wine cellar, theater room, billiard room, bonus room, guest house, outdoor kitchen/bar, and much, much more. Exquisite molding, ceiling treatment, and flooring are everywhere you look; one discovers more with each glance. The chef's kitchen is ready for home cooks and professionals alike with Viking Professional range, 2 SubZero built-in refrigerators, Miele coffee station, warming drawer, and copious storage - all with hand-made custom cabinetry and solid wood fascia. The master bedroom on the main level is a destination truly unto itself with oversized sitting area, spa-quality master bath, and massive dual walk-in closets. Entertaining friends and family alike present seemingly limitless options - enjoy a movie in the theater room, host friends for a dinner party in the game room with built-in custom bar, or relax on the covered lanai amidst a resort-style backyard with sparkling oversized pool and outdoor kitchen, bar, and fireplace! A detached guest house is ideal for guests staying for an extended period of time and has the flexibility to handle whatever you can dream up. The home office/library features exquisite custom built-in cabinetry and its own walk-in closet offering incredible storage should the need arise. A saltwater aquarium splits the family room from the eat-in space in the kitchen, while the home gym features a sauna; perfect for post-workout! From an elevator helping with access to the second level, to a generator ensuring no power interruptions, everything has been thought of and obsessed over. Truly too much to list; all with the conveniences of world-class golf, shopping, restaurants, schools, business parks, and highways nearby. This property may be under audio/visual surveillance.
