There are homes that impress on arrival and fade on closer inspection. This is not one of them.
Set behind the gates of Buckingham Estates, one of Sanford's most sought-after addresses, this
Mediterranean estate is the kind of property that rewards attention. The freshly painted facade, framed by
mature palms and precisely sculpted landscaping, makes a statement before you reach the front door. The
sweeping pavered driveway sets an unhurried, intentional tone that carries throughout every room.
Inside, the architecture does the work. Arched doorways and built-in display niches lend the living spaces a
timeless quality, while the kitchen strikes the balance between beauty and function that serious cooks and
entertainers both demand. Dark granite countertops catch the light across an expansive island, rich wood
cabinetry extends to the ceiling, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances including a French door
refrigerator and double wall ovens ensures nothing is compromised. This is a kitchen designed for people who actually use one.
The primary suite is a study in quiet luxury. A coffered tray ceiling with crown molding frames the room with
architectural weight, plantation shutters filter the Florida light to a soft glow, and the spa-inspired en suite
bath offers the kind of space and finish level that makes the end of a long day genuinely something to look
forward to.
The outdoor living is simply exceptional. The grotto-style pool and spa are built around natural stone
formations and a cascading waterfall feature, surrounded by lush tropical plantings that create total privacy
and a resort atmosphere. The screened enclosure and generous pavered deck make this an outdoor living
room in the truest sense, functional and beautiful through every season.
The upper level is a destination in its own right. A private theater room outfitted with oversized leather
recliners and a pool table offers an entertainment experience that most homes cannot replicate. A separate
bedroom with a Murphy bed and full bath adds genuine flexibility, whether as a guest retreat, a private
office, or a space entirely of its own purpose.
For those who value an active lifestyle alongside an elevated one, the Seminole Wekiva Trail offers miles of
scenic cycling and running practically at your doorstep. SR-417 and the broader I-4 corridor place the best
of Lake Mary, Orlando, and beyond within easy reach.
With a three-car garage, updated mechanical systems, and fresh exterior paint, this home is move-in ready
without reservation.
Buckingham Estates does not offer many opportunities like this. The ones that come to market at this level
do not linger.
