Exceptional estate opportunity in Walden Lake’s prestigious GATED ENCLAVE OF POLO PLACE. This impressive 5,400+ square foot residence sits on 2.16 ACRES and features a PRIVATE POOL and PRIVATE TENNIS COURT, offering a rare combination of space, privacy, and luxury that is seldom found in this area. Arrive through a grand circular paver driveway accented by a striking tiered fountain and surrounded by beautifully maintained grounds that create a true estate feel. Inside, the home showcases timeless architectural details including soaring ceilings, crown molding, wainscoting, and a dramatic wrought iron and wood staircase that anchors the grand foyer. Formal living and dining spaces provide an elegant setting for entertaining. The expansive family and game room is designed to impress, with 20-foot ceilings, a custom media feature wall with a granite fireplace, and a fully equipped wet bar crafted in rich wood tones. A wall of French doors opens to the lanai, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. The kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a center island, walk-in pantry, and upgraded stainless steel appliances, including a new refrigerator (May 2023) and built-in oven and microwave (August 2023). The main-level primary suite offers a private retreat with a spa-like feel, highlighted by a fully renovated bathroom (May 2023) featuring marble floors, a redesigned shower, updated fixtures, and custom dual vanities. Upstairs, a secondary suite with its own living area provides ideal accommodations for guests or multi-generational living, along with additional spacious bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath—all bedrooms offering walk-in closets. Recent improvements elevate both style and peace of mind, including a brand new roof installed in April 2025, fully remodeled bathrooms with marble finishes (2023), and new herringbone wood flooring along with updated second-floor flooring (2023). Step outside to your private resort-style setting complete with a sparkling pool and spa, expansive covered lanai with wet bar and serving area, and your own private tennis court, all set within over two acres of serene, usable land. Additional features include a large bonus room ideal for an office or flex space, a 3-car garage, oversized parking pad, and a fenced dog run. Select furniture pieces may be included at no cost, offering added value and a move-in-ready opportunity. Located between Tampa and Orlando, Walden Lake provides convenient access to major destinations while maintaining a quiet, upscale residential atmosphere. This is a truly rare chance to own a fully updated estate with acreage, privacy, and luxury amenities—homes like this are rarely available.
