REFINED SOUTHERN ELEGANCE meets MODERN CRAFTSMANSHIP in this 5-BEDROOM CUSTOM ESTATE set on 1.7 ACRES within the GATED COMMUNITY of BLUE SPRING RESERVE. Surrounded by a 300-ACRE NATURE PRESERVE, the property offers TOTAL PRIVACY amid ancient oaks and tranquil conservation views—yet it’s LESS THAN A MILE FROM THE TURNPIKE with direct routes to ORLANDO, DISNEY, and the airport. A PAVER-ACCENTED CONCRETE DRIVEWAY leads to the home’s TIMELESS FAÇADE, highlighted by CEDAR-SHAKE ACCENTS, a DEEP WRAPAROUND PORCH, and an OVERSIZED 2.5-CAR GARAGE. Inside, nearly 5,000 SQ FT of living space showcases COFFERED CEILINGS, CROWN MOLDING, and WAINSCOTING—balanced by a NEUTRAL PALETTE and ABUNDANT NATURAL LIGHT. The CHEF’S KITCHEN features a 5-BURNER GAS COOKTOP, DOUBLE OVENS, a PREP ISLAND WITH SINK, BUTLER’S PANTRY, and GRANITE COUNTERS, all opening to a SPACIOUS FAMILY ROOM anchored by an ELECTRIC FIREPLACE and FRENCH DOORS leading to the POOL. A WET BAR and WINE NOOK make entertaining effortless. The PRIMARY SUITE offers DIRECT POOL ACCESS, a TRAY CEILING, CUSTOM WALK-IN CLOSET, and a SPA-INSPIRED BATH with SOAKING TUB and DUAL WALK-IN SHOWERS. Upstairs includes FOUR ADDITIONAL BEDROOMS, each with a WALK-IN CLOSET, plus TWO FULL BATHS, a LOFT, and a BONUS/GAME ROOM WITH WET BAR. Outdoors, enjoy a SCREEN-ENCLOSED POOL AND LANAI with a BUILT-IN GRILL, HALF BATH, and PRIVATE WETLAND VIEWS. Additional upgrades include TWO NEWER HVAC SYSTEMS, TWO TANKLESS WATER HEATERS, a WHOLE-HOUSE GENERATOR, WINDOW TINTING, FENCED DOG RUN, and a CUSTOM PET NOOK beneath the staircase. BLUE SPRING RESERVE combines SERENITY AND CONVENIENCE—where REFINED LIVING and NATURAL BEAUTY coexist effortlessly.
