A Private Melbourne Estate Framed by Water and Sky

First Impressions with Presence

Arriving at this estate is an experience in itself. A brick-pillared entry opens to a sweeping circular drive, where a private pond with fountain and tall palms creates a striking centerpiece. The gentle sound of water, combined with the symmetry of palms, immediately sets a tone of serenity and grandeur. From here, the home’s clean architectural lines, brick accents, and soaring roofline suggest a residence that balances natural beauty with modern sophistication.

Interiors with Scale and Style

Inside, volume and light define the living spaces. Vaulted cedar ceilings, exposed beams, and clerestory windows frame the main living room, where a full-height brick fireplace and custom shelving serve as both architectural statement and gathering point. Walls of glass invite natural light to spill across wide, open interiors, enhancing the sense of scale and connection to the outdoors. Across from this dramatic space, the dining area and chef’s kitchen flow in an open arrangement, designed to elevate both daily living and entertaining. The kitchen is anchored by sleek cabinetry, expansive counters, and a $30k+ appliance package, including a 48” dual fuel oven, griddle, and 66” fridge/freezer.

A Home Designed to Entertain

For casual evenings or larger gatherings, the living and dining areas open directly to the screened lanai, where skylights, ceiling fans, and generous square footage extend living outdoors. The lanai becomes a year-round destination, offering shade and breezes beneath its vaulted roofline. Just beyond, a sparkling pool enclosed by a white picket fence is positioned for privacy, while an outdoor shower adds convenience and character. Whether dining al fresco, hosting a summer party, or enjoying a quiet morning swim, the transition between indoors and out is seamless and refreshing.

Private Retreats

The primary suite is a haven with dual closets and a redesigned bath featuring double vanities, dual showerheads, and a bidet. Sliding glass doors open the room to fresh air and private patio views, underscoring its retreat-like quality. Secondary bedrooms are equally spacious, one offering a clever Murphy bed concealed within built-in shelving, a thoughtful design that maximizes versatility. Each of the three fully remodeled bathrooms reflects the home’s broader commitment to thoughtful updates, including a handicap-accessible bath with zero-entry shower for ultimate comfort and accessibility.

Expansive Acreage & Versatility

Set on more than two acres, the property extends its appeal well beyond the home. A detached barn with newly poured concrete and a brand-new workshop with split-system A/C provide ample space for hobbies, storage, or creative pursuits. The greenhouse offers a place for year-round gardening, while irrigated grounds with fruit trees add both beauty and function. Expansive lawns and mature landscaping enhance the sense of privacy, making the acreage feel like a self-contained sanctuary. Practicality is equally prioritized with RV parking, sewer and electric hookups, PV solar panels, a Generac generator, and updated systems that ensure the estate runs with quiet efficiency.
