7672 MARKHAM BEND PLACE

An incredible opportunity to live in luxurious Lake Markham Preserve, a guard-gated community that is home to multi-million-dollar waterfront estates. This custom four-bedroom, four-bathroom, near 4,500-square-foot Irvin Construction home is ideally situated at the end of a cul-de-sac street on an acre lot with frontage views of the community pond with a lighted fountain. A dramatic hedge-lined driveway cascades towards the home, opening to generous courtyard parking and the impressive front side of the home. Enter through artisan steel double doors and step into the one-of-a-kind interior where a showcase of impeccable woodwork is found throughout the main floor. Soaring ceilings complement the large open spaces of this primarily one-story design. Enjoy immediate views of the lanai and pool past the large family room featuring a gas fireplace and tall glass doors leading to the lanai. The dining room is spacious and conveniently located adjacent to the bar, which doubles equally well as a butler’s pantry thanks to its convenient location. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring built-in stainless appliances, gas cooktop and vented exhaust hood. A center island and breakfast bar offer plenty of granite counter space. The oversized kitchen dinette boasts tall, mitered glass windows that bring in natural light and provide stellar views of the custom, freeform pool. The family room is just steps away, creating a truly alfresco atmosphere compliments of tall, pocket sliders merging the screened lanai as part of the entertaining space. The first-floor bonus room is an incredibly versatile space, perfect for a second office, playroom, or library; the options are endless. A private, double-door entry secludes the primary suite into its own oasis. A generously sized bedroom, large dual closets and a luxurious bath featuring dual sinks, vanity counter, garden tub plus separate shower with dual showerheads are all wrapped in custom woodwork and drenched in natural light. The office also enjoys custom French doors, multi-faceted ceiling and warm wood floors. A second bedroom with its own private bath and walk-in closet plus a spacious laundry room complete the first floor. Upstairs opens to the loft, bedrooms three and four plus a full bath. The loft and bedroom four enjoy French door access to separate balconies overlooking the water. The lanai is designed for the alfresco lifestyle that is all Florida: large covered lounge and dining spaces, a perfectly situated summer kitchen, and an oversized freeform pool with sun deck, all contained within the screen enclosure. A large, fenced backyard keeps all the fun contained within this acre+ lot. The oversized, three+ car garage is complete with Tesla charging and floor panels. Mature landscaping, brick paver sidewalks and delicate use of exterior lighting bring an engaging evening impression. In addition to the amazing lifestyle this home brings, a wealth of outdoor activities is available nearby, including golf and country clubs, walking and hiking trails and easy access to attractions and the beaches. Seminole County enjoys top-rated schools, and boutique dining and shopping are just moments away, as are Interstate 4 and the 429/417 beltways.
