Key Facts
Description
Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac within the gated enclave of Wilder Pines, this rare 1.539 acre walkout lot offers an opportunity to create a home that feels entirely secluded, yet remains just minutes from the best of WDSM amenities, dining, shopping, and entertainment. Surrounded by mature trees and natural privacy, the setting feels like your own hidden retreat; peaceful, protected, and incredibly difficult to replicate. This homesite is exclusive to Marc Kris Modern Homes, a builder widely recognized for creating sophisticated, architecturally timeless residences with an unmatched level of intentionality, craftsmanship, & design. Marc Kris Modern Homes is known for a highly personalized and collaborative building experience where every detail is thoughtfully curated to reflect the homeowner’s lifestyle, vision, and the character of the lot itself. A custom floorplan has been thoughtfully designed specifically for this homesite and is available for buyers who would like inspiration or a starting point for what could be built here. However, buyers ultimately have the flexibility to fully customize and create a home unique to their own wants and needs. Residents of Wilder Pines also enjoy private golf trail access directly to Glen Oaks Country Club, further elevating the lifestyle this exceptional community offers. Opportunities to build within Wilder Pines are extremely limited; especially on lots offering this level of privacy, size, natural beauty, & setting.
