Description

Under contract-accepting backup offers. Located within the highly sought-after St. Ives section of Orange Tree-a more exclusive enclave inside one of Dr. Phillips' premier guard-gated golf communities-this extensively upgraded pool home delivers a rare combination of scale, condition, and lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find at this price point.Positioned on a spacious homesite with a circular paver driveway and mature oak canopy, the home immediately sets a tone of established luxury and privacy. Inside, the layout is both functional and intentional, offering a split floor plan with a true 5-bedroom configuration, high ceilings, and an abundance of natural light anchored by expansive views of the outdoor living space.The kitchen has been fully renovated with quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and a built-in Miele coffee system, opening seamlessly to the main living areas-designed for both everyday living and elevated entertaining. Wood-look ceramic tile flooring enhances durability and aesthetic continuity throughout the primary spaces.Major system upgrades provide a level of confidence rarely seen in competing homes, including a 2021 roof, 2024 HVAC system, 2025 whole-house replumb, updated insulation, and additional mechanical improvements-representing a meaningful investment in long-term ownership quality .The outdoor living environment is where this property separates itself. A fully screened enclosure frames the resurfaced and electrically heated pool, complemented by upgraded pavers, a custom-built bar, and multiple covered seating areas-creating a true extension of the home designed for year-round use. Whether hosting or unwinding, the space is both private and highly functional.The primary suite is privately positioned with direct access to the pool deck, reinforcing the home's indoor-outdoor flow and livability. Additional features include a wood-burning fireplace, Tesla charging station, upgraded front entry, and thoughtfully improved interior finishes.Beyond the property itself, St. Ives at Orange Tree offers a distinct advantage-combining the security of a gated community with access to the Orange Tree Golf Club, recreation center, tennis, pickleball, fitness facilities, and a lifestyle centered around connectivity and convenience. All of this is just minutes from Restaurant Row, major attractions, top-rated schools, and the core of Central Florida.This is not simply another home in Orange Tree-it is a fully evolved property where the major capital improvements have already been completed, the layout supports modern living, and the setting delivers the lifestyle buyers are actively searching for.Opportunities like this-where condition, location, and livability align-are limited, and rarely come to market fully realized.
