This transaction included an adjacent lot purchase by buyer from seller that was not included in original MLS offering. Welcome to Hillandale House, an architectural gem rich in history. The original structure was built in 1934, carefully sited on the shore of Golden Trout Lake, a glistening 10 acre spring fed lake surrounded by an orange grove. Designed as a family compound, the property includes a charming guest house, towering hardwoods, and spacious lawns.

In 2016, the home was lovingly restored and revitalized with a beautiful new addition, carefully conserving the traditional structure while more than doubling the living space with luxurious conveniences. The result is a pleasing, rambling farm house, comfortable for hosting formal gatherings with the privacy of a quiet retreat.

From the foyer, enter a generous, coffered ceiling great room, bathed in light with impressive lake views. The formal dining room and library with full bath also overlook the lake. Above the library, a separate staircase leads to a cozy bedroom and full bath. The kitchen has generous counter space, a sunny breakfast nook, and farm house fireplace. A quiet study or home office is just off the living room.

The owners suite and luxurious bath with sweeping views of the lake and lawn is on the second level, as well as 2 additional bedrooms and a full bath.

A breezeway patio joins the home to an expansive 4 car garage. An interior stairway and private entrance lead to a 800 square foot bonus area above the garage, fully plumbed and ready for conversion to a teen suite or game room.

Steps away, the guest cottage is nestled on the bank of the lake. Dating back to the 1940’s, the cottage has been restored and repurposed as a studio or perfect home office.

Custom millwork throughout, solid core doors, craftsman style trim, solid and engineered wood flooring, exposed beams, and extensive crown molding must be seen to appreciate the attention to detail throughout.
