Isleworth estate smashes Central Florida sales record

Alakefront estate in Isleworth Golf & Country Club has sold for $35 million, setting a record for a single-family home sold in Central Florida.

Wayne Sheffield and Monica Lochmandy, of Isleworth Realty, brokered the deal, which has set a new benchmark for both the private club community and the entire Central Florida region for a single-family home transaction. The sale closed Feb. 18.

“Estates of this magnitude are a rarity in Central Florida,” Lochmandy said. “Our relationships in the market were an essential key not only in initiating the transaction but also in walking it through to fruition.”

Completed in 2020, the 26,000-square-foot estate, at 9538 Blanche Cove Drive, Windermere, was custom-built by Flavio Da Silva, Brazilian businessman, entrepreneur, owner of Wise Up schools and former owner of MLS Orlando City Soccer Club. The three-story, fully concrete estate is set on 3.15 lakefront acres and offers a two-story living room with limestone fireplace, a modern kitchen, dining room, family room, expansive owner’s suite, office, game room with bowling alley, home theater, basketball court, an elevator and cascading exterior grounds featuring a private beach. Designed by Nasrallah Architectural Group and built by Akers Custom Homes, with interiors by Marc-Michaels Interior Design, the property took more than three years to build. These are the highest-selling homes in each community in West Orange.
