About the Home

Welcome to 15 Taunton Lake Road! A stately tree-lined drive leads to this stunning estate on Taunton Lake situated on a private peninsula with 900 feet of shoreline and 180 degree lake views. The front entry opens into a grand double height living room and dining room with floor to ceiling windows and three sets of French doors to the terrace overlooking the lake. A chef’s kitchen with Sub Zero, Viking, and Jenn Air appliances and a family room with French doors to terraces on three sides is perfect for everyday living. The fantastic oak-paneled library with a wet bar makes for a great space to quietly read or have cocktails in a more intimate space. Two spacious primary suites are found on the main floor, both with gorgeous lake views. Two more en-suite bedrooms and two spacious home offices are housed in the upper level. The fully finished lower level offers a home gym, a large media room, and a kitchen that leads to the lanai and pool. Outdoor living space includes a heated gunite pool, a Har-Tru tennis court, extensive stone terraces, a fantastically equipped outdoor kitchen, and a dock with electricity. Only electric motors are permitted on Taunton Lake, maintaining serenity and quiet for residents. The stocked lake is a fisherman’s paradise, and a wonderful place to paddleboard, kayak, canoe, and swim. This magnificent estate with exceptional finishes on Taunton Lake is a rare, one-of-a-kind find!
