Property Description
Welcome to this move-in-ready home with privacy, lifestyle and location. 8041 Margate Way offers the rare combination of luxury, privacy, space and convenience in one of North Lakeland’s most sought-after locations. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in desirable Sherwood Forest, this custom-built four-bedroom, three-bath residence sits on an oversized 1.5-acre homesite backing directly to protected conservation, creating an exceptionally private setting with no rear neighbors. From the moment you arrive, meticulous curb appeal and mint condition make it clear there is nothing lacking here. Completely move-in ready, the home features a new architectural roof (2024), three new Carrier A/C systems (2024), fresh interior and exterior paint (2024) and premium new flooring throughout (2024). Inside, soaring and tray ceilings, rounded architectural corners and custom details create an impressive sense of volume and craftsmanship. The expansive open living area flows seamlessly into the gourmet kitchen, complete with a commercial-style refrigerator and wine refrigerator, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The oversized primary suite is a true retreat, featuring generous his-and-hers walk-in closets, dual vanities and a spa-inspired bath. The impressive walk-around shower is designed for two and includes multiple rain-head settings, complemented by an impressive soaking tub for ultimate relaxation. A standout feature is the finished private movie theater, complete with dedicated seating, Dolby surround sound, built-in cabinetry, refrigerator and a charming window seat. All televisions, movie equipment and theater furniture are conveyed, creating a turnkey entertainment experience. (Freestanding speakers are excluded.) As an added bonus, there is another 12-by-26 space ready to be drywalled/finished into an additional bedroom or game room in the attic. The room is framed, and electrical is already present. It is ready for you to make it your own. Outside, your private oasis awaits. The saltwater pool features an integrated lounge area and spa, overlooking the protected conservation setting beyond. With no backyard neighbors, the outdoor space is perfect for relaxing, entertaining or enjoying the peaceful natural surroundings. Additional highlights include a well-appointed laundry room with cabinetry, counters, sink and closet space; abundant storage; and an oversized three-car garage with coated flooring offering more than 800 square feet of pristine space. Above, 500+ square feet of floored attic space provide exceptional storage and exciting potential for future use, including possible conversion to additional living space or a bedroom. Poured concrete sidewalks extend around the perimeter of the home, adding rare convenience and functionality. This property offers a rare sense of space and privacy while remaining remarkably conveniently located, only minutes from I-4 and Central Florida’s major destinations. Located approximately 35 minutes from Disney, Tampa and Orlando. 8041 Margate Way is more than a home; it’s a lifestyle of space, privacy, comfort and exceptional amenities, ready for its next owner to simply move in and enjoy.
