About 3824 Gaines Drive

Impressive architectural presence along the shores of Lake Eloise—one of the most scenic destinations on the famed Winter Haven Chain of Lakes—this striking modern masterpiece redefines the art of luxury lakefront living. Encompassing over 7,400 square feet of grand interior space, this seven-bedroom, five full and two half-bath residence merges sleek contemporary design, subtle industrial artistry, and resort-style comfort. From the moment you arrive, the home’s elevated design and striking façade become part of its architectural drama. A sweeping dual staircase ascends to the second-level entry, unveiling an open floor plan with awe-inspiring 28-foot ceilings and a full wall of glass that frames panoramic lake views and radiant morning sunrises. The interior flows effortlessly between living spaces—beginning with a sunken living room featuring soaring ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace, an expansive lower-level great room anchored by a suspended granite table, and a private media lounge opening to a tranquil courtyard retreat. The kitchen is a stunning expression of modern design and culinary function, showcasing stainless-steel counters, frosted glass cabinetry, and bar seating for twelve. Professional-grade Miele appliances include dual dishwashers and an integrated espresso/cappuccino system, while a 260 gallon saltwater aquarium adds a touch of living art. Overhead, a starlit ceiling transforms the space into a celestial experience, complementing the home’s smart automation system that manages lighting, temperature, and ambiance with ease. Both main-level and upper-level primary suites provide spa-inspired retreats with sweeping lake views and sumptuous baths. Two guest suites offer private en-suite baths, while another pair share a stylish Jack-and-Jill configuration. The seventh bedroom captures some of the most breathtaking lake vistas imaginable, and the flexible office/den easily serves as an eighth bedroom, playroom, or additional media space—all ideal for multigenerational living or hosting guests in complete comfort. Outdoors, the property unfolds into a private resort setting designed for recreation and unforgettable entertaining. The pool and spa overlook tranquil waters and a sandy shoreline, while the newly designed covered summer kitchen features a built-in grill, pizza oven, kegerator, and sink—all perfectly positioned to enjoy lakeside breezes. The private dock and boathouse, equipped with an electric boat lift, dual jet ski lifts, and generous lounging deck, extend the living experience directly onto the water. Explore the world-famous Chain of Lakes—more than 20 canal-connected lakes offering waterfront dining, live music, and seasonal Legoland fireworks viewed from your own backyard. Additional highlights include a two-car garage, dual carports providing covered parking for four additional vehicles, and an expansive paver drive. Recent updates provide peace of mind, including a new roof (2023), updated A/C units, and dual water heaters (2019). Blending bold architectural artistry with effortless modern livability, this Lake Eloise estate is a destination unto itself—remarkable in design, distinctive in character, and positioned in one of Central Florida’s most coveted waterfront settings. Ideally located between Tampa and Orlando, Winter Haven offers a vibrant small-town atmosphere with boutique dining, cultural events, and the legendary Chain of Lakes—a lifestyle few places can rival.
