Tucked away in the highly desirable gated community of East Lake Woodlands, this one-of-a-kind 4-bedroom, 2-bath waterfront retreat offers a rare opportunity to experience the timeless beauty of Old Florida. With an extraordinary 180-degree view of lush natural surroundings and a tranquil waterway, this private setting feels like a world of its own—where trees, abundant wildlife, and peaceful water views create a backdrop that is both breathtaking and serene.
A large circular driveway welcomes you to the home, where a new double-door entry opens to vaulted ceilings and an inviting, light-filled interior. The formal living room features French doors leading to the screened lanai, while the dining room is accented by a beautiful Tiffany-style light fixture. Throughout the home, tile flooring and roller shades provide a clean, timeless aesthetic.
The updated kitchen features granite countertops and opens naturally to the family room, where one of two fireplaces creates a warm and inviting gathering space. The primary suite offers its own featured fireplace, creating a cozy retreat, along with an updated private bathroom featuring an oversized glass-enclosed shower and soaking tub. An updated guest bathroom provides additional modern convenience sandwiched between two of the additional bedrooms.
Step outside and discover what truly sets this property apart. The expansive screened lanai surrounds a beautiful saltwater pool and spa, with a painted cool-deck surface and lush tropical landscaping creating your own private resort-style escape. Beyond the pool, a Trex dock and completely renovated seawall (2020) provide the perfect vantage point to take in the incredible natural setting and 180-degree views of Old Florida.
Thoughtfully maintained and updated, the home features impact and double-pane windows with galvanized storm shutters, a hybrid water heater, water softener, new shingle roof (2024), gutters, French drains extending to the lake and exterior paint completed in August 2026. The wrought-iron fenced yard adds privacy and enhances the beautifully landscaped grounds.
Located outside a flood zone and within a top-rated A-rated school zone, this exceptional home also offers the opportunity to become a social, golf, or tennis member at Ardea Country Club, adding an optional lifestyle component to an already remarkable property.
Private waterfront, resort-style amenities, thoughtful updates, and an unmatched Old Florida setting—this is more than a home; it’s a rare opportunity to own your own piece of paradise in East Lake Woodlands.
