Exquisite style and craftsmanship are showcased in this custom-built Jerry Linder home with lake to golf course views behind the gates of King and Bear. This unique estate home was designed to capture the natural beauty of the lake and golf course with large pictures windows that frame brilliant views from almost every room. No detail was forgotten from the extensive moldings to the brass Baldwin door hardware and escutcheon plates. Upon arrival, you'll fall in love with the grandeur and street presence. Soaring stacked stone columns and glowing carriage lights frame the entryway. Once inside, you're wowed by 30-foot ceilings and a dazzling chandelier that floats above the grand foyer.
