Property Description


0.66 Acres Lot
Built in 1996
For Sale - Active
1 Units

Tucked within the private gates of Heron Cay...an exclusive enclave of just 24 custom residences nestled along the shores of picturesque Lake Eloise...this extraordinary 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath pool estate offers 3,480 sq. ft. of refined living on a 0.66-acre cul-de-sac lot. Here, architectural elegance, luxurious finishes, and resort-style amenities come together to create a home that is as livable as it is impressive. From the moment you arrive, the manicured landscaping, mature palms, and stately façade set a tone of quiet sophistication. Step inside the grand entry to find rich bamboo and Italian travertine flooring, formal and relaxed living spaces, and a thoughtfully designed layout tailored for both large-scale entertaining and intimate gatherings. The formal living room, anchored by a travertine-faced fireplace, makes an elegant centerpiece—perfect for special celebrations or quiet evenings in. The wide-open family room offers built-in discrete AV storage, abundant natural light, and easy access to the outdoors, creating the ideal setting for enjoying movie nights and watching weekend sports. The kitchen is nothing short of spectacular, featuring exotic granite countertops, a leathered-granite island, Sub-Zero 120 bottle two-zone wine refrigerator, professional-grade stainless appliances, a natural gas range, hidden butler’s pantry, and a dedicated coffee station. Just steps away, an entertainer’s bar is perfectly positioned for crafting cocktails or frozen daiquiris to enjoy poolside. The primary suite is a serene retreat with generous proportions and a spa-inspired bath complete with an oversized walk-in shower with body sprayers, separate steam shower, expansive granite-topped vanity, a dedicated makeup area, and a huge walk-in closet. Bedrooms two and three each feature en-suite baths and walk-in closets, while the fourth bedroom offers flexibility as a gym, media room, or executive office. The outdoor living is equally refined with hammered marble decking, a heated pool and spa, covered and open lounge spaces, and a pavered sitting area—all surrounded by lush landscaping for the ultimate in seclusion and privacy. Additional upgrades include a whole-house generator for peace of mind, a comprehensive water-filtration system, a tile roof, impact-rated doors, insulated windows, plantation shutters, a 3-car garage with abundant storage, irrigation well, and more. Beyond the gates, Heron Cay offers a lifestyle that is both private and connected. Lake Eloise is part of the world-famous Winter Haven Chain of Lakes, a boater’s paradise with access to 20+ lakes, waterfront restaurants, and spectacular LEGOLAND fireworks over the water. Winter Haven itself blends small-town charm with modern convenience—home to boutique shopping, fine dining, cultural events like Theatre Winter Haven and the annual Chain of Lakes Boat Parade, as well as outdoor activities including golf, parks, and nature trails. Just minutes away are major medical facilities, while Tampa and Orlando (with international airports, professional sports, and world-class attractions) are an easy drive in either direction. Offering the prestige of a gated lakefront community, the serenity of a private setting, and the convenience of Central Florida’s premier location, this home is a rare opportunity for those who demand excellence, privacy, and an uncompromising standard of living.
