8613 BAYVIEW CROSSING DR

Offered for the first time by its original owners, this lovingly cared for Glendale floor plan showcases unforgettable sunset views across Lake Hickory Nut, enjoyed nightly from the welcoming front porch. Positioned in the highly desirable first phase of Waterleigh, the home offers immediate access to the community’s renowned amenities without the longer drives found deeper within the neighborhood, delivering an ideal blend of convenience and lifestyle.
Exceptional curb appeal with a craftsman-inspired façade sets the tone, while the expansive front porch invites you inside to a thoughtfully designed layout that adapts effortlessly to a variety of living needs. The entry opens to a spacious great room where a wall of windows frames sparkling lake views and fills the home with natural Florida light. The kitchen is equally impressive, featuring abundant cabinetry, a large prep island perfect for gatherings, a closet pantry for added storage, and upgraded appliances that all convey.
A generous downstairs bedroom overlooking the lake offers flexibility and is currently used as a home office. Upstairs, the living space continues with a sizable bonus room, a true ensuite bedroom with a large walk-in closet, and an oversized secondary bedroom, both capturing stunning lake views. The owner’s suite is a relaxing retreat with dual walk-in closets, separate vanities, a walk-in shower, and a soaking garden tub. An upstairs laundry room designed for everyday convenience includes the washer and dryer. Added features such as central vacuum and a whole-home water filtration system enhance comfort and functionality throughout.
Ideally located just minutes from Disney, the 429 expressway, and the vibrant Hamlin retail and dining district, this home also benefits from proximity to highly rated public schools and several respected private campuses. Waterleigh residents enjoy two resort-style clubhouses, pools, fitness centers, sports courts, dog parks, mini golf, and miles of walking and biking trails, with lawn care included in the HOA for truly low-maintenance living.
Combining an unbeatable location, a versatile and spacious floor plan, and lake views that simply cannot be replicated, this exceptional home represents outstanding value and is priced to sell. This is a rare opportunity to own a waterfront-view home in one of the area’s most sought-after communities.
