Welcome to 50 Forest Street in picturesque Downtown Windermere, situated on arguably one of the best water-front lots on the Butler Chain. This one-of-a-kind location is full of live oak trees on three adjoining lots creating unparalleled 180-degree postcard views of Wauseon Bay. The sprawling one-story 7,300 square foot home underwent a complete remodel that was completed in 2023 where it was taken down to the studs and rebuilt with zero expenses spared. The result is a coastal-chic design including new tongue and groove ceilings with distressed beams, new wood/gas burning fireplace and new pool among numerous other upgrades. The grounds are incredible and deliver a true embracement of the Florida lifestyle. Hop on your boat and explore the Butler Chain of Lakes, play on your sand beach, relax poolside, utilize the new summer kitchen and pizza oven, relax with a drink by the outdoor fireplace and enjoy the beautiful sunsets over the lake or practice your short game on your own new putting green. New metal roof and commercial gutters, new saltwater pool & spa, new boat dock with 2 covered slips and 2nd story party deck, all new Sierra Pacific windows and doors. The all-new dream kitchen is the heart of this home and a true showstopper with Kingdom Custom Cabinetry, Thermador appliances, Waterstone unlacquered brass faucets and hardware and hidden custom coffee bar. Media room with projector screen and automatic blinds creates the perfect place for movie nights while utilizing the custom wet-bar with wine fridge and refrigerator drawers. Master suite includes an enormous bedroom with reading nook, grand bathroom and two walk-in custom closets. C4 system installed for the smart home technology you would expect. TESLA SOLAR PANELS cut deep into the electric bill. Natural Gas Genrac Generator for additional peace of mind. A SEPARATE DETACHED 1 bedroom, 1 bath GUEST HOUSE with its own patio overlooking the lake is just another unique and amazing feature of this estate. Could be an ideal in-law suite, office, gym or residence for live in nanny. Plenty of parking with 4 car garage and several paved parking pads on property. NO HOA and in the heart of the Town of Windermere, delivering the convenience and quality of life that makes it one of the most desired places to call home in Central Florida.
