This rare custom-built estate in The Grove on Lake Francis, a gated lakefront community just minutes from downtown Lake Placid, presents intentional architectural craftsmanship with wood accents and stacked stone. Stepping inside, the home opens to a split floor plan where a spacious family room flows seamlessly into the kitchen, featuring a grand center island, granite countertops and backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and abundant cabinet storage. A powder room is conveniently located off the kitchen before entering the private guest wing. The primary suite offers two walk-in closets, a walk-in shower, dual vanities, and expansive lake views, while the additional bedrooms are positioned on the opposite side of the home and share a full bath, providing privacy and separation. Throughout the interior, the home is finished with custom-ordered entry and interior doors, upgraded hardware, and granite countertops. Tongue-and-groove ceilings and exterior-grade tile enhance both the front entry and screened lanai, extending the living space outdoors. An outdoor shower adds convenience after time spent on the lake. The full one-acre property is fully sodded, irrigated, and professionally landscaped, offering scenic lake views. Additional features include smart-home technology with remote irrigation controls, a video doorbell, security cameras, and a Nest thermostat system, along with two electrical panels and pre-wiring for an electric vehicle charger, dock, pool, and pool heater. A rare offering that combines intentional design, upscale finishes, and the ease of lakefront living in a gated Lake Placid setting.
