About this home

12521 FARADAY LANE

Located in The Preserve, Laureate Park’s only gated community, this stunningly upgraded 4,135 sqft estate home is a rare blend of modern architectural design, luxurious custom finishes, and thoughtfully curated indoor-outdoor living in the heart of Lake Nona. From the moment you arrive, the curb appeal captivates with the welcoming front porch, beautifully landscaped exterior, and expanded tandem three-car garage with a custom extension for additional storage and functionality. Inside, soaring double-height ceilings, dramatic multi-story windows, and oversized sliding glass doors flood the home with natural light and create an incredible sense of openness from the moment you walk in. The great room is anchored by a striking custom wood accent wall with contemporary sconces and an included Frame TV, while integrated speakers throughout the great room, covered lanai, and outdoor living areas create the perfect atmosphere for entertaining or relaxing at home. The chef’s kitchen is truly the centerpiece of the home, featuring an impressive dual-island layout with quartz countertops, premium Monogram smart appliances, a cabinet-depth built-in refrigerator, a natural gas cooktop with pot filler, custom cabinetry detailing, crown molding, and under-cabinet lighting. The custom walk-in pantry is a showpiece of its own with built-in cabinetry, wood shelving, shiplap accents, a built-in Elkay water dispenser, and designer metal-and-glass Rustica French doors. A beautifully designed wine room with custom cabinetry and a wine refrigerator adds another layer of sophistication and warmth. The first-floor primary suite feels like a private retreat with custom wall moldings and a spa-inspired bath featuring a soaking tub and dual walk-in showers. Upstairs, the spacious loft opens to a covered balcony perfect for enjoying peaceful Florida sunsets, while all secondary bedrooms feature custom walk-in closets. A thoughtfully curated mix of custom drapery and Hunter Douglas automated window treatments adds elegance, convenience, and privacy throughout the home. The covered and screened lanai is a true outdoor retreat with a fully equipped summer kitchen featuring a premium Alfresco grill and gas burner, quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and a GE Monogram outdoor refrigerator. The backyard offers a charming herb garden along with electrical pre-wiring for a future pool installation, allowing the next owner to create an even more extraordinary outdoor oasis. Additional upgrades include a finished laundry room with double-stacked cabinetry, a laundry sink, a smart washer and dryer with gas or electric connection option, tile flooring throughout the first floor, engineered hardwood flooring throughout the second floor, a tankless gas water heater, EV charger-ready, extensive garage storage with heavy-duty shelving and bike hanging systems, and professionally designed landscaping. Residents of The Preserve enjoy access to resort-style amenities, including pools, a fitness center, yoga classes, playgrounds, dog parks, trails, beach volleyball, scenic lakes, and gigabit-speed internet, all within the vibrant hub of Medical City. This is a rare opportunity to own one of Lake Nona’s most thoughtfully upgraded and beautifully designed homes in one of the area’s most desirable gated communities.

Value check

Is the price right?

The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
