Set on the corner of a quiet cul-de-sac on the Conway Chain of Lakes, this lakefront estate strikes the rare balance between legacy architecture and modern function — with a dock, pool, and layout built to elevate everyday living. With 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, an office, and over 4,000 square feet under air, it lives large without feeling overbuilt — grounded by clean lines, custom finishes, and unobstructed water views from almost every angle. From the street, the home’s presence is understated but confident. A wide paver driveway, manicured landscaping, and custom hurricane shutters frame the entry, while dual garages and mature oaks provide privacy and timeless curb appeal. Inside, the foyer opens to a formal dining space and sunlit living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace. Large nearly floor to ceiling windows, draw you straight toward the screened-in pool deck and lake beyond — where covered seating, outdoor fans, and a pool fence offer year-round comfort and security. The kitchen was designed with both daily rhythm and entertainment in mind — featuring a long prep peninsula, wine fridge, and seamless views of the water. Speakers are wired throughout the home (and outdoors) for easy ambiance, and the lake-fed irrigation system means the grounds stay lush with zero water bill. The split floor plan offers true flexibility. Tucked on one side of the home is a spacious primary wing with double-door entry, sitting area, and two custom walk-in closets. The ensuite bath is oversized and window-lined, with dual vanities, soaking tub, and separate shower. On the opposite side of the home are four additional bedrooms, including two with their own private bathrooms — ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or live-in support. An office with built-ins, a large laundry room with utility sink, and extensive hallway closets round out the interior functionality. Out back is where this home fully delivers. The new Cichra-built dock features a covered 7,500 lb boat lift and wraparound walkways — shaded by a custom tile roof with lighting and ceiling fan already in place. The bay opens directly to Little Lake Conway, one of Central Florida’s premier private-access ski lakes. Whether you're cruising to lunch, catching sunset from the dock, or hosting poolside — this backyard was designed for connection. Major systems have been thoughtfully upgraded: whole-house Generac generator with a 500-gallon buried propane tank (gas remaining negotiable), tankless gas water heater, full home replumb, Armstrong-installed Emtek bump locks, wired security cameras, and an upgraded ADT system. There’s also a storage shed tucked away for convenience. Located in a private, no-HOA enclave with tree-lined streets and custom homes, 525 Mandalay Rd offers lakefront living without compromise — where function, flow, and location meet on your terms.
