One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Welcome to Hillandale House, an architectural treasure rich in history. This expansive estate, sprawled across 1.22 acres, showcases the original structure erected in 1934, majestically positioned on the shoreline of Golden Trout Lake. This shimmering 10-acre spring-fed lake, once surrounded by a verdant orange grove, now adds to the charm and allure of the property. Designed as a family compound, the property includes a charming guest house, towering hardwoods, and spacious lawns. 2016 heralded a new chapter for Hillandale House. With a touch of love and dedication, the home was rejuvenated and expanded, blending the age-old charm with modern luxuries. The outcome? A sprawling farmhouse radiating warmth, perfect for grand gatherings, yet offering the serenity of a secluded retreat. The main house boasts 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and 1 half bath, complemented by an inviting guest cottage. The welcoming foyer leads to a spacious great room adorned with a coffered ceiling, awash with natural light and offering impressive lake vistas. The adjacent formal dining room and library, complete with a full bath, also promise serene lakefront views. A distinct staircase from the library ascends to a bedroom and accompanying full bath. The heart of the home, the kitchen, boasts generous counter space, a sunlit breakfast alcove, and a traditional farmhouse fireplace. Adjacent to the living room, a private study awaits, perfect for those work-from-home days. Upstairs, the owner’s suite with its spacious bath offers sweeping views of the lake and lush lawns, joined by two additional bedrooms and a bath. Connecting the main abode to a capacious 4-car garage is an elegant breezeway patio. Above the garage, an 800 square-foot bonus area beckons, equipped with plumbing and primed for transformation into a guest suite or recreational room. A stone’s throw away, the lakeside guest cottage stands. A relic from the 1940s, it’s been gracefully reimagined as a studio or ideal home office, now equipped with a brand-new AC for year-round comfort. Every corner of this home, from its custom millwork, solid core doors, craftsman-style trim, to the blend of solid and engineered wood floors, exposed beams, and meticulous crown molding, reflects an unparalleled attention to detail.
