Creegan Group, Central Florida’s #1 luxury real estate brokerage, announces that 1 Stone Gate South in the prestigious Ravensbrook community along the Markham Woods Corridor is under contract at $1,500,000 — pending in less than 90 days. A once-in-a-generation custom luxury estate on one of Seminole County’s most coveted corridors has found its buyer.
There are properties that require patience — and then there are properties that, when positioned correctly and placed in front of the right buyers, find their match in a fraction of the time the market might suggest. 1 Stone Gate South is the latter.
A 2022-built, 4,659-square-foot single-story custom estate on approximately one acre in Ravensbrook — one of the Markham Woods Corridor’s most exclusive communities — listed at $1,500,000 and went under contract in less than 90 days. For sellers along the Markham Woods Corridor, in Ravensbrook, and throughout Longwood’s luxury estate market, that timeline at that price point is a signal worth paying close attention to.
Here is the full story of what went under contract — and what it means.
Ravensbrook and the Markham Woods Corridor: Understanding the Address
Before the home can be fully appreciated, the address must be understood — because 1 Stone Gate South derives a significant part of its value from where it sits.
The Markham Woods Corridor is Longwood’s and Lake Mary’s most prestigious residential address. A stretch of Markham Woods Road lined by custom estate communities, mature tree canopies, and a density of luxury construction that distinguishes it from every other residential corridor in Seminole County — the Markham Woods Corridor has maintained its position as one of Central Florida’s most enduring luxury addresses because the product it delivers cannot be replicated: large custom lots, architectural diversity, genuine privacy, and a natural environment that feels deliberately removed from the pace of the surrounding region.
Ravensbrook is among this corridor’s most sought-after communities — approximately 80 custom home sites averaging one acre each, offering the combination of space, privacy, and exclusivity that buyers searching the Markham Woods Corridor are specifically seeking. With an optional HOA that provides access to a private non-motorized boat ramp for kayaking and outdoor recreation, Ravensbrook layers a lifestyle amenity onto the estate setting that most communities at this price point cannot match.
This is the address that buyers from Connecticut, New Jersey, and the Chicago suburbs recognize immediately when they begin researching Central Florida’s luxury estate market. The Markham Woods Corridor is Central Florida’s answer to the Westchester estate corridor — and Ravensbrook is among its finest communities.
The Home: A 2022 Custom Estate Built Without Compromise
1 Stone Gate South is a study in what modern luxury single-story living looks like when the builder faces no budget constraints and the owner has refined taste. Completed in 2022 with all major mechanicals new, this is a property that delivers the peace of mind of essentially new construction with the design maturity of a home built to be lived in immediately and enjoyed for decades.
The Scale and First Impression
4,659 square feet. All on one floor. This distinction is not incidental — it is one of the defining characteristics of the home and one of the primary reasons buyers who have been searching the Markham Woods Corridor recognize it as exceptional the moment they walk through the door.
Single-story living at this scale is a rarity in any luxury market. The absence of stairs is meaningful to a broad range of buyers: those who are planning for the long term and want a home that will accommodate their lifestyle at every stage, those who have aging parents or in-laws as part of the household equation, and those who simply prefer the flow and accessibility of a home where everything is on one level. At 4,659 square feet, 1 Stone Gate South proves that single-story living does not require compromise — it requires the right builder and the right vision.
Twelve-foot ceilings throughout the living areas create a volume that photographs dramatically and lives even better — the kind of interior atmosphere that makes a 4,600+ square foot floor plan feel open and effortless rather than cavernous. Large porcelain tile floors flow through the living areas, setting a tone of understated elegance from the moment of arrival. Natural light pours in from every direction, reinforcing the openness and creating an interior environment that changes beautifully with the progression of the day.
The Primary Suite: A Home Within a Home
The primary suite at 1 Stone Gate South deserves its own conversation — because at approximately 1,300 square feet, it is not a bedroom with a nice bathroom. It is a private sanctuary that rivals the square footage of many luxury condominiums.
Direct access to the pool and outdoor living area transforms the primary suite into a seamless extension of the outdoor resort environment. The spa-inspired bathroom is the room that stops buyers mid-tour: a freestanding soaking tub positioned as the room’s centerpiece, dual vanities with quartz countertops, and a shower that earns the word “showstopping” without exaggeration — oversized, featuring dual shower heads, a rain shower head, and an opposing body sprayer that creates a spa experience that no day spa in the region can match on demand. Every morning begins in this room. For buyers who understand what a primary suite can be, this one resets the standard.
The Dual Primary Suite Configuration
A second bedroom with its own private en-suite bathroom creates a true dual primary suite configuration — one of the most sought-after features in the luxury estate market for buyers navigating multigenerational household needs, long-term guest hosting, or the desire for a secondary retreat that does not compromise on comfort. This feature alone positions 1 Stone Gate South for a buyer profile — multigenerational families, households with live-in parents, couples who want complete privacy — that very few competing properties in the Markham Woods Corridor can serve.
The Gourmet Kitchen: Designed for Serious Use
The kitchen at 1 Stone Gate South is the functional and social anchor of the home — and it delivers on both counts. Quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, and a built-in oven provide the professional-grade cooking capability that buyers at this tier expect. The walk-in custom cabinetry pantry — one of the features in the listing description that buyers cannot fully appreciate until they are standing inside it — is the kind of storage and organization infrastructure that changes the daily experience of using a kitchen from functional to genuinely pleasurable.
The kitchen opens naturally to the living areas, maintaining the open-concept flow that makes 1 Stone Gate South feel connected across its entire footprint rather than divided into rooms that happen to share a roof.
Two Offices, a Bonus Room, and the Flex Space Premium
The floor plan at 1 Stone Gate South reflects the way households actually live in 2025 and beyond. Two dedicated office spaces serve a household where one or both adults work from home — without the friction and distraction that sharing a single office or converting a bedroom creates. A large bonus room — currently configured as a private workout room — provides the flex space that every household eventually needs and that no amount of planning for the future can replace once the decision to buy has been made.
For buyers who are building a home around their actual lifestyle rather than a theoretical one, the combination of five bedrooms, two offices, and a bonus room represents a floor plan that serves virtually every configuration without asking anyone to compromise.
The Oversized Three-Car Garage
The oversized three-car garage completes the practical side of the package — delivering vehicle capacity, storage, and workspace that a home of this scale and a buyer profile of this type requires. In the Markham Woods Corridor, where buyers often maintain multiple vehicles, recreational equipment, and the storage needs that accompany an active Florida lifestyle, a three-car garage is not a luxury — it is the expectation, and this one delivers it at scale.
The Outdoor Resort: Where the Home Truly Comes Alive
If the interior of 1 Stone Gate South sets a standard, the outdoor environment exceeds it.
The approximately 2,500-square-foot screened outdoor entertainment area is not a pool deck with a chair and an umbrella. It is a private resort — and the word private is the operative one. Lush mature landscaping on an approximately one-acre homesite creates an enclosure that makes the outdoor space feel entirely removed from the world beyond the property line.
The Pool and Infinity Spa
The saltwater heated pool is equipped with an upgraded pebble tech-style surface, upgraded tile, stunning LED color lighting across the full spectrum, and full app-controlled operation — so that the pool environment can be adjusted before the homeowner has left their office chair. The 360-degree infinity spa goes further still, with two water features that create a visual and auditory atmosphere that transforms an evening in the backyard into something closer to a resort stay than a typical residential outdoor experience.
This is not hyperbole. It is what buyers experience when they step through the sliding glass doors at 1 Stone Gate South — and it is what produces the decision to write an offer.
The Summer Kitchen and Covered Lanai
The covered lanai provides shade, shelter, and a year-round outdoor living environment that Central Florida’s climate makes possible. The fully equipped summer kitchen — built-in grill, exhaust hood, and sink — means that the entertaining can move entirely outdoors when the occasion calls for it, with none of the trips back to the interior kitchen that an underequipped outdoor setup requires. This is the summer kitchen that turns a pool deck into a genuine dining destination.
The Infrastructure Behind the Luxury
What distinguishes a truly premium custom home from a production luxury build is what is inside the walls and behind the systems — and 1 Stone Gate South is built at a standard that reflects genuine care for long-term ownership.
The whole home standby Generac generator eliminates the single greatest vulnerability of Florida luxury estate ownership: the power outage that turns a beautiful home into an uninhabitable one during hurricane season. When the power goes out in Seminole County — and in a typical Florida summer, it will — 1 Stone Gate South stays on. The whole home water filtration and softener system delivers the water quality that luxury kitchen and bathroom finishes require and that Florida’s water supply does not naturally provide. The concrete flat tile roof combines architectural quality with the structural longevity that Central Florida’s climate demands. And with all major mechanicals from 2022, the new owner inherits a systems package that will not require significant capital investment for years to come.
Seminole County Schools: The Irreplaceable Location Advantage
1 Stone Gate South is zoned for three of Seminole County’s most respected schools: Woodlands Elementary, Markham Woods Middle, and Lake Mary High School.
Seminole County Public Schools is consistently ranked among Florida’s top school districts — a fact that is not incidental to the Markham Woods Corridor’s enduring value. For families with school-age children who are making a luxury estate purchase and cannot afford to get the school situation wrong, this specific school zone represents one of the most compelling combinations available in any Seminole County community at this price point. It is a location advantage that no renovation, no upgrade, and no price reduction can manufacture — it comes with the address and belongs to whoever owns it.
