About 1739 Dorchester Place
Set on the lake in one of Wellington's most coveted non-HOA enclaves, this home offers a rare combination of space, privacy, water, and heart. Spanning 2,875 square feet, this five bedroom residence is perfectly positioned on the lake to capture sweeping western light, with extraordinary sunsets across the water. The setting is at once open yet private, with a quiet sense of calm and space. (See supplement remarks) Inside, the house has wonderful bones and an easy, comfortable layout ready for its next chapter. As you step through a covered front porch and foyer, the lake is immediately visible through the floor to ceiling windows in the living room. A formal dining alcove and powder room are to your right, and a fifth bedroom converted to a large home office is to your left. A large, open kitchen with a breakfast area for casual dining and a family room anchored by a coral stone fireplace is an ideal gathering place for friends and family, and the trio of guest bedrooms served by their own full bath are located off this north wing. The two car garage opens through a laundry area and into the kitchen. On the south side of the home is the home office and primary bedroom suite, with a separate dressing area, generous closet space and a windowed, oversized bath. Additional features include a central vacuum system and a whole house generator, offering both convenience and peace of mind. What makes this home truly special is the way it blends indoor-outdoor living. Multiple rooms open to the fully screened patio and its generously sized heated pool, creating an ideal setting for year-round enjoyment. The mature lawn and landscaping includes specimen trees and flowering plants cultivated over two decades by the current owner. An oversized dock invites quiet mornings and golden-hour evenings on the water, ideal for non-motorized boating and quiet enjoyment of the lakefront setting. The lot itself is surprisingly private due to the geographic contour of the shore and has a fenced area ideal for pets. Whether enjoyed as is or reimagined over time, this is a home with genuine substance, character, and opportunity. Conveniently and centrally located in Wellington, but still worlds away.
