Nestled on a prime lakefront homesite in the gated community of Forest Lakes, this custom-built residence by Luke & Blues Custom Homes, designed by the acclaimed Archiscapes Architects, offers an exceptional blend of timeless architecture, luxury finishes, and an unrivaled waterfront setting. Lovingly maintained by its current owners and never offered as a rental, this impeccably cared-for home presents with a level of freshness rarely found along 30A. Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac overlooking the community's picturesque lake, it captures tranquil water views from multiple levels while being just moments from the sugar-white beaches and renowned dining along Scenic Highway 30A. Designed for effortless coastal living and entertaining, the thoughtfully crafted floor plan features four spacious bedrooms, four full baths, a third-floor bonus room with full bath, and an iconic fourth-floor tower offering panoramic treetop and lake views. The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen spaces are highlighted by wide-plank wire-brushed oak flooring, shiplap walls throughout, abundant natural light, and an impressive 18-foot Eurowall six-panel folding glass door that seamlessly opens the living room to the expansive screened porch overlooking the water. The chef's kitchen is beautifully appointed with quartz countertops, a Wolf gas range, Fisher & Paykel double-drawer dishwasher, farmhouse sink, wine refrigerator, ice maker, drawer microwave, custom cabinetry, handcrafted subway tile backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, oversized island, and generous pantry storage. The serene primary suite enjoys its own private screened porch overlooking the lake, a custom-designed walk-in closet, and a luxurious spa bath featuring marble finishes, dual vanities, and an oversized shower with rain, wall, and handheld shower systems. Every bedroom offers exceptional comfort with custom closet systems and beautifully finished baths, while the versatile third-floor bonus room provides additional space for guests, a home office, or media room. Every detail reflects quality craftsmanship, including upgraded designer lighting, custom window treatments, whole-house sprinkler and security systems, two Rinnai tankless water heaters, built-in speakers, hidden storage, and extensive custom millwork throughout. The charming tower retreat, surrounded by fourteen windows with remote-controlled shades, opens to a private balcony where sweeping lake and sunset views create the perfect place to unwind. Forest Lakes is one of 30A's most sought-after gated communities, offering a rare combination of privacy and convenience with resort-style amenities including a two-tier pool, pavilion with outdoor fireplace and grilling area, playground, walking trails, expansive green spaces, and a scenic boardwalk spanning the lake. With no short-term rental restrictions, this remarkable residence is equally suited as a primary home, vacation retreat, or exceptional investment opportunity. Custom designed, expertly built, and positioned on one of Forest Lakes' premier lakefront homesites, 68 Okeechobee Circle represents a rare opportunity to own one of the community's finest residences.
