When we decided to buy in Florida our mission was to buy a home that myself, my wife and my kids would wish to return to year after year. It had to be fabulous, it had to be close to Disney, it had to be gorgeous, it had to luxurious, it had to be unique, it had to be well designed, it had to be well located…….and it had to be PRIVATE AND NOT OVERLOOKED! A superb new addition is our own West haven Clubhouse of which guests staying at our house can enjoy the facilities free of charge. These include a superb huge Community Swimming Pool, Tennis Courts and other features to be announced. This becomes available from March 2008!Our home in Orlando meets all of these requirements and that is why so many families have visited and returned to our Florida home again and again! Even now after 4 years, when we walk in the front door after the long flight from Ireland, we are still taken aback with the “Wow”factor! After walking in the front door we always head straight to that superb Pool Deck and that cracking view. Palm Trees, greenery, beautiful views and no house behind………that is special!Our home actually had an option for a sixth bedroom but we opted to have five bedrooms instead using the proposed sixth bedroom as second sitting room/den/computer area. The home is so spacious that it comfortably accommodates up to 12 people and even with 12 there is still lots of spaceThe home even has 5.5 Bathrooms including an air conditioned Bathroom on our Pool Deck! This is a great convenience saving a trip through the house. All the bathrooms are luxuriously designed and three even have his/hers wash hand basins.We have 2 master en suite bedrooms, 1 US king (UK Super King) and 1 US Queen (UK King-Size) plus three twin rooms, two of which are themed, one in Scooby Doo and the other in Mickey Mouse. We have upgraded many items in this home to provide a truly magical experience for example: *Beautiful floor tiles throughout our downstairs Sitting Room and Kitchen area*Fabulous balcony from our upstairs second sitting room with stunning views to Disney.*Pool Deck extended by 4 feet in length plus upgraded Pool furniture for 8.*Beautiful mature Palm Trees overlooking the Pool Area*Upgraded 6 foot wide Spa*Pool Bathroom with outside Pool Shower*Well equipped Kitchen with huge American Fridge*Ceiling Fans throughout*Premium location in The Abbey backing on to the Conservation Area *Three Pool sliders (the rear of the house downstairs is glass) all protected by a Pool Alarm *Waterfall feature in the Pool*Home Cinema System, secure Wi-Fi, Broadband Internet P.C. and PS2*Gas BBQ Grill*Fully equipped Games Room with Pool Table, Table Tennis, Air Hockey and FussballTo conclude this section, when you enter our home for the first time and experience the wonderful design, the luxury and comfort and of course our simply stunning Pool/Spa Deck with that great view and privacy, you will understand why we bought in The Abbey and why we all enjoy returning, like many of our guests, year after year!
