Overview

Description

Welcome to No. 5 Mountain Lake, a rare opportunity to own a meticulously reimagined 1925 Mediterranean Revival estate within one of America's most storied planned communities. Set on 1,100 Olmsted-designed acres, Mountain Lake is listed on the National Historic Register and features a Seth Raynor-designed golf course. Known as ''La Solana,'' the estate offers over 8,500 square feet across a main residence and four distinctive cottages. A comprehensive 2018-2019 renovation achieved seamless integration of historic authenticity with refined modern living. The primary wing is approached via a dramatic breezeway crossing a koi pond, transforming arrival into ritual. Thoughtful sightlines frame lake views, manicured gardens, and the 17th green. Ownership offers access to private golf and tennis facilities and proximity to Bok Tower Gardens. Membership approval required. Extensive digital brochure, and video available.
