It feels cozy, it doesn\u2019t feel overwhelmingly large,\u201d Hubscher said. \u201cEverything flows really well from the furniture to the layout. It\u2019s just a great home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A guest casita has a bedroom, bathroom, living space, and a kitchenette.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s like the perfect retreat, close enough to the house, but yet detached in its own world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Outside, the driveway is a unique mix of stone and turf, creating a design element for the front yard as well as connecting the five-car garage area to the home.<\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s the backyard that Hubscher said gets a lot of attention with its lake view, summer kitchen, 75-foot lap pool, sun shelf area, spa, and more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve heard this comment several times from people who have come to see the house. They say, \u2018I feel like I\u2019m at the Four Seasons.\u2019 It is really one of those pools that really takes your breath away,\u201d he said, adding that the separate lap area means people can be playing in the main pool and not disturb someone who really wants to swim.<\/p>\n<p>The large .72-acre lot in a cul-de-sac has 130 feet of shoreline on Lake Nona as well as a dock, boathouse, and lift.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can\u2019t have any jet skis, which is actually quite nice for the sound because sometimes when you get lakes that allow jet skis, it\u2019s just non-stop,\u201d he said. \u201c[Lake Nona] is a pretty quiet lake in terms of the activity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Having a lot like this with a house of this size and age on the market in the neighborhood is a rare thing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have new construction in the new phase hitting the market, but there\u2019s nothing that even comes remotely close [to this]. Everything there is off-lake, no real views, smaller lots, so this is a really unique offering,\u201d Hubscher said. \u201cIt\u2019s just one of those things that I don\u2019t know if there\u2019s going to be another one that\u2019s going to come up anytime soon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And even though this home is listed at almost $10 million, Hubscher calls it a bargain.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have seen comparable homes in Golden Oak and Isleworth, and I would say [they are] comparable in terms of quality and finish, but price points in those markets would be much higher, $14 to $16 million, so for this to be under $10 million with this type of quality, it\u2019s really pretty special.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Have a tip about Central Florida development?
