ORLANDO, Fla. --- Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty was recently named exclusive sales and marketing agents for a luxury lakefront country estate just west of Orlando that comes with a notable pedigree.
Roger Soderstrom, founder and owner of Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty, said the 55-acre luxury estate at 19035 Orange Ave. in Groveland features a 5,600 square foot lakefront hacienda designed by Arizona architect John B. Sholz, whose Uptown Court---a 103-room estate home outside the village of Windlesham in Surrey, England---ranked as the most expensive home offered for sale anywhere in the world at the height of the real estate boom.
Recently the palatial estate sold for half its former asking price, or about $67 million.
Soderstrom said the Groveland hacienda, built in 2002, is a brilliant example of the California Craftsman architectural style with pecky-cypress doors and cypress plank ceilings.
“The hacienda is a work of art,” said Stirling Sotheby’s Luxury Residential Specialists Sally Taylor and Emily White. The Taylor/White International Team for Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty are representing the Groveland estate which is listed for sale for $2.6 million.
The four-bedroom luxury home offers three full baths and a guest half-bath along with a game room, a private library, and a grand entrance with a 25-foot high rotunda.
A white, sandy beach on secluded Lake Arthur is a focal point of the 55-acre estate property, which includes a park-like 15-acre homestead and gardens with extensive wooden decking and a secluded stone waterfall, Taylor said.
The estate earns its agricultural property tax exemptions: its 10-acre irrigated organic citrus grove and 30 acres of well-fenced cattle pasture are served by a 3,750 square foot workshop, garage and farm vehicle storage building.
The entire property is well-fenced and the cattle pasturage is cross-fenced, Taylor said. The property is protected by a gated entrance and extensive electronic security system.
