Overview

Rare Lakefront Investment Opportunity on the Iconic Winter Haven Chain of Lakes – Prime Lake Eloise Frontage! This is your chance to own a piece of Florida’s most coveted and limited real estate asset: lakefront property on the world-famous Winter Haven Chain of Lakes. Nestled on the shores of stunning Lake Eloise, this gated estate sits on an expansive 0.92-acre lot with 140 feet of frontage and panoramic water views, offering an ideal blend of location, size, and potential. Spanning over 5,000 square feet, this home is perfect for the visionary buyer who sees the untapped potential in creating a dream lakefront retreat. The functional layout features a downstairs primary suite with tranquil lake views, a spacious en-suite bath, and ample storage. A downstairs bonus could easily function as second primary or in-law suite—complete with a private garage entrance and direct lanai access—making this home ideal for multi-generational living or guest accommodations. The main living spaces include large formal living and dining rooms, perfect for entertaining, and a dramatic family room with a two-story brick fireplace, wet bar, and breathtaking water views. The kitchen, designed with functionality in mind, offers spacious dimensions along with ample cabinet and counter space, a walk-in pantry, and a cozy dinette. Adjacent to the kitchen sits the inside laundry with additional storage cabinets and room for easy conversion into a scullery or butler's pantry. Upstairs, you’ll find three guest bedrooms, a full bath, and more storage, providing plenty of room for family or visitors. The sprawling backyard features an in-ground pool, mature landscaping, and a backdrop of majestic cypress trees—all waiting to be transformed into a private waterfront oasis. Living on the Winter Haven Chain of Lakes offers a lifestyle like no other, with boating, skiing, and fishing across more than 20 interconnected lakes. On special occasions, enjoy a front-row seat to Legoland’s spectacular fireworks, visible from the comfort of your boat or backyard. Situated within the prestigious gated community of Skidmore, this property combines exclusivity with convenience. Located between Tampa and Orlando, it provides easy access to airports, premier medical facilities, dining, shopping, and entertainment. For savvy investors, the Chain of Lakes represents a scarce and highly sought-after asset class. Opportunities like this—combining expansive lake frontage, breathtaking views, and limitless potential—are increasingly rare. Remember, they’re not making lakefront anymore. This property provides a wealth of opportunity to modernize the structure and maximize its future value. Whether you envision a stunning renovation for your family's enjoyment or an investment project to add to your portfolio, this property on Lake Eloise is your chance to turn potential into reality. Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to create a legacy on one of Florida’s most iconic bodies of water.
