Under contract-accepting backup offers. Privately situated on 1.7 acres along one of the sought-after corridors of Markham Woods Road in Longwood, this exceptional property presents a rare opportunity to enjoy space, flexibility and modern upgrades without restrictions of an HOA. Tucked behind private entry gates at the front and rear of the property, the estate offers a unique sense of privacy and convenience while remaining just moments from the boutique shopping, dining and everyday conveniences of Longwood and Lake Mary. With immediate access to Interstate 4 and the 417/429 beltways, downtown Orlando, regional hospitals, area attractions and beaches are all within easy reach. Significantly renovated and thoughtfully improved since 2021, the property combines peace of mind with modern comfort. The main residence spans five bedrooms and three and a half baths and has been extensively updated with all new plumbing, new flooring throughout, fresh interior and exterior paint completed in 2025, and stylish new sinks, fixtures and lighting throughout. The kitchen is complemented by all new appliances, while two new high-efficiency HVAC systems installed in 2026, and a 2022 roof further enhance the home’s long-term value and efficiency. Beyond the main residence is a detached, nearly 1,000-square-foot guest house that provides versatility for multigenerational living, visiting guests, a separate office for running a business or extended stay accommodations. Outdoors, the expansive grounds offer a remarkable amount of parking and storage potential, including room for recreational vehicles, boats, trailers, or car collections, complemented by a dedicated 30-amp RV outlet. The oversized property also provides ample room to create a future resort-style pool and outdoor entertaining environment tailored to your vision. Rarely does a property combine acreage, extensive renovations, gated privacy, guest accommodations and a premier Markham Woods Road address with such exceptional connectivity to Central Florida’s desirable destinations in one compelling offering.
