About This Home

Presenting Windy Ridge Estate on 18 gated acres with 614 feet of pristine frontage on Lake Down, Butler Chain of Lakes. Manicured grounds, panoramic water views, and over 50,000 SF across multiple structures create an unrivaled lakefront compound.
The walled entry opens to a grand foyer with a floating mahogany staircase, marble floors, paneled walls, and Murano chandeliers. An art gallery leads to a spacious living room featuring rich mahogany millwork and expansive lake vistas. Gourmet kitchen: salamander, dual double convection ovens, commercial icemaker, full-size refrigerator, and freezer. The main level includes one of two owners' suites, plus a library-lounge or a possible sixth bedroom. Dual staircases or a Thyssenkrupp elevator provide access to the upper level, which features four-bedroom suites, including the primary retreat. An 85-foot parlor with 20-foot ceilings, built-in bookshelves, and a wet bar provides a dramatic entertaining space. Screened porch captures southern lake views and Disney fireworks. Breezeway connects to a 5,600 SF rustic lodge with a bar, catering kitchen, entertainment hall, and locker facilities. Outdoor amenities: Junior Olympic pool, spa, decorative fountain, architectural lighting, direct lake access. Additional structures include a 4,000 SF paneled garage with 20-foot ceilings, an office, and a guest apartment; a 3,800 SF storage building; three separate garages accommodating motor coach and car collection; and staff quarters with a private courtyard. A rare fusion of Georgian grandeur, lakefront serenity, and equestrian potential—crafted for those who demand the extraordinary.
