The speed of the sale somewhat surprised Pozek.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn that price point, there\u2019s a lot of inventory right now. But when you look at the inventory, there wasn\u2019t much that had the views and some of the things this home had.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The house was built in 2003 but has had several updates since, which set it apart from others on the market.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" lazyautosizes lazyload\" alt=\"The original pool was fairly small, but the sellers expanded and upgraded it with a large spa and extended lap lane.

It had the sunshelf. It had the hot tub and a lap pool for anybody that wants to do that,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>At 5,845 square feet, the home is big but does not feel cavernous.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" lazyautosizes lazyload\" alt=\"Viking appliances, dual farmhouse sinks, a pot filler, and a generous center island create a chef-driven layout without sacrificing style.

It was a massive suite.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" lazyautosizes lazyload\" alt=\"The home features two full bedroom suites on the main level, ideal for multi-generational living, guests, or options for office space.

(Photo courtesy of Pozek Group)<\/p>\n<p>It was the proximity to Lake Burden that Pozek said sold the house.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was lake view, but not on the lake \u2014 so you had this gorgeous view that usually somebody would pay $5, $6, $7 million for, but you\u2019re actually golf course frontage with lake view behind it,\u201d Pozek explained. \u201cI think there are less than 10 houses in the entire neighborhood of 1,100 that have that kind of view, so it was a really special house.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Being able to see the sunset but not being able to have a boat kept the price down.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis same house, 100 feet towards the lake, sitting on the lake, would have been another $1.5 to $2 million more.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The views are what Pozek said the sellers are reluctant to leave.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis house had the most picturesque backyard,\u201d he said. \u201cThat\u2019s the thing they\u2019re going to miss the most is having dinner with the family and looking out over the lake as the sun sets.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Public records show the sellers are George and Paige Couros, and the buyers are Sean and Ellen Fitzpatrick.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese are out-of-town buyers moving local, so they were looking for something special, and I think they found it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.maximrealtors.com\/agents\/Bent-Danholm\/8468105\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bent Danholm<\/a> with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maximrealtors.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Maxim Realty Orlando<\/a> represented the buyers.<\/p>\n<p>Have a tip about Central Florida development?
