Description

An extraordinary estate of rare distinction, Painted Dreams is a testament to timeless architecture, exceptional craftsmanship, and thoughtful design. Built with the finest materials and meticulous attention to detail, this remarkable residence was created to endure for generations. Encompassing over 12, 000 square feet of air-conditioned living space and more than 17, 000 square feet under roof, the estate rests on 2.5 private, park-like acres, offering a peaceful retreat that feels worlds away—yet remains moments from Central Florida’s most sought-after destinations. The impressive three-story main residence is designed for both refined living and grand-scale entertaining. Highlights include eight bedrooms, six and a half baths, an elevator, private cinema, poker room, study/library, and a 590-bottle, climate-controlled wine cellar. Towering ceilings, expansive windows, and travertine flooring create a sense of openness and elegance throughout, while custom craftsmanship is showcased in the solid 8-foot Brazilian mahogany doors and intricate wood detailing. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen features granite countertops, dual islands, premium appliances, and a butler’s pantry, flowing seamlessly into a spectacular family room with 24-foot ceilings and dramatic floor-to-ceiling glass. A covered porte-cochere introduces a stunning stained-glass entry, opening to a sun-filled foyer flanked by formal living and dining spaces. The primary suite is a luxurious sanctuary, complete with a fireplace, expansive walk-in closet, and a spa-like bath offering dual vanities, an oversized soaking tub, and a walk-in shower. The second level is dedicated to leisure and relaxation, featuring a theater, library, open loft, game area with wet bar, and a 1, 000+ square foot terrace with sweeping views of the estate. The third level adds additional guest bedrooms, a generous lounge, and another wet bar—ideal for hosting overnight visitors. Outdoor living rivals that of a private resort, with a custom pool and spa enhanced by app-controlled lighting and water features. A sprawling 4, 000 square foot patio, cabana bath, and fully equipped outdoor kitchen create the perfect backdrop for gatherings large or small, with ample room to add a tennis court, basketball court, or putting green. Automotive enthusiasts will appreciate the expansive motor court, detached six-car garage (with capacity for up to twelve vehicles using lifts), and additional space for boats or RVs. Above the garage, a beautifully appointed two-bedroom guest residence offers a full kitchen, fireplace, and multiple living areas, connected to the main home by a private bridge. Ideally situated near prestigious country clubs, Lake Sylvan Park, upscale dining, and world-renowned attractions, Painted Dreams stands as one of the most exceptional luxury estates in the Orlando area—a truly rare offering for the discerning buyer.
