About this property
A rare opportunity to own one of Rainbow River's premier waterfront estates. Experience unparalleled luxury where timeless elegance meets one of Florida's most breathtaking natural settings. This exceptional 6,040+/- square-foot residence boasts approximately 90 feet of private Rainbow River frontage, offering unobstructed views of the crystal-clear, spring-fed waters. With no homes across the river-only the untouched beauty of Florida's natural landscape-this extraordinary property delivers a level of privacy and serenity that is truly unmatched. Thoughtfully designed to capture the spectacular views, the home features two expansive screened porches spanning both levels, along with a private balcony off the owner's suite, creating the perfect setting to enjoy peaceful mornings, colorful sunsets, and the beauty of the river throughout the day. A grand foyer welcomes you inside, where an elegant staircase and custom elevator provide access to the main living level. The impressive great room showcases soaring vaulted ceilings, a stately fireplace, custom wet bar, and walls of glass that frame the river beyond. French doors open seamlessly to the screened porch, blending indoor and outdoor living. The gourmet kitchen flows effortlessly into the dining area, creating an ideal space for both intimate gatherings and grand entertaining. The owner's suite is a private sanctuary featuring its own fireplace, sitting area, and secluded porch overlooking the river. The spa-inspired bath offers a soaking tub, walk-in shower, private water closet with bidet, dual vanities, and two generous walk-in closets. Two additional guest suites, each with private en-suite baths, provide exceptional comfort and privacy. The lower level is equally impressive, featuring an expansive game room with a built-in bar and custom cabinetry, along with a spacious flex room complete with a closet and utility sink-ideal as an art studio, fitness room, home office, media room, or additional guest suite. An additional bedroom and full bath make this level perfectly suited for extended family, guests, or multigenerational living. Two oversized garages provide space for up to four vehicles, while the conveniently located upstairs laundry room enhances everyday functionality. Outside, approximately 90 feet of private Rainbow River frontage sets the stage for an extraordinary waterfront lifestyle. A spacious deck leads to the private dock, offering immediate access to boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, swimming, or simply floating along one of Florida's most celebrated spring-fed rivers. A tranquil waterfall feature and beautifully landscaped grounds complete this remarkable outdoor retreatbining architectural elegance, exceptional craftsmanship, and one of the most coveted locations on the Rainbow River, this extraordinary estate offers an unparalleled opportunity to experience the very best of Florida waterfront living.
