1370 PENINSULA DR Tavares, FL 32778

When the years of achievements have culminated to the moment of owning a remarkable residence on the Harris Chain of Lakes, this single-story pool home in the enclave known as The Peninsula on Lake Harris blends refined yet casual elegance, wide open water views, and breathtaking sunsets to settle your days. The .9-acre homesite sits high and dry, elevated above the water’s edge dotted with stately cypress trees. The sweeping panoramic views begin at the stately Sapele double front doors, with incredible sight lines out through multiple living areas, lanai, swimming pool, summer kitchen, primary suite, and private guest suite. The intentional transformation of this home began approximately 2 years ago, combining both timeless interior features and improved and updated mechanicals. The Owners took a detailed approach in selection of the vendors and designer to ensure quality of workmanship, reputation and performance would not disappoint. The “Chef’s Kiss” kitchen took on new life with sophisticated quartz countertops and full height backsplashes, all new appliances including a Sub-Zero® 48” refrigerator, dual Wolf® wall ovens with convection, Wolf® Warming Drawer, Wolf® 6-burner Pro Series Gas Range. Hosting or catering in your home is effortless, with a beautiful brand-new butler’s pantry that was created just behind the kitchen. The primary suite offers a haven-like feel with remote controlled Kirsch® cellular shades to allow serene views of the pool and lake. The en-suite bathroom rivals a 5-star spa with a new custom walk-in shower, a wall mounted towel warmer, new freestanding soaking tub, and all new sinks and toilet. A set of remote-controlled Kirsch® cellular shades allow them to be lowered to any height for privacy, or completely retracted for unobstructed views. On the same side of the residence is a private office, an updated powder room, and the one-car garage that has a mini-split HVAC offering many uses for additional air-conditioned space. The dining and living room area feature high ceilings, custom moldings, travertine floors and a gas ventless fireplace. Sliding glass doors extend this space out to the covered and screened in lanai with space to relax or entertain. The renovation to the outdoor kitchen resulted in a high-end Hestan® cooking system, wet bar area, and stylish NaureKast® weatherproof cabinetry. New outdoor fans, a multi-phase quiet pool motor and saltwater cell generator make pool days even more enjoyable!
