Hardwick General Contracting is proud to announce its official entry in the 2026 Lake Sumter Parade of Homes as a featured Dream Home. The Parade will take place Saturday, February 21 through Sunday, March 1, 2026, showcasing exceptional residential construction throughout Lake and Sumter Counties.
The Dream Home, Maison Joie at the Pointe, is a celebration of refined living inspired by the timeless architecture of Gordes in Provence, France. Perched on the edge of beautiful Johns Lake, this 7,074 square foot luxury custom home blends European charm with modern performance and understated elegance, creating an atmosphere defined by tranquility, craftsmanship, and thoughtful design.
Designed through a collaborative vision between the homeowners and an exceptional team, Maison Joie at the Pointe brings together Hardwick General Contracting as master builder, Winter Park Design for architectural design, and LC Interiors for interior design. The residence features three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, two powder rooms, a private studio, a media room, and a sunroom offering sweeping 180 degree lake views. Every space was carefully planned to maximize natural light through premium Andersen Windows and Doors, supplied by longtime partner Manning Building Supplies, creating a seamless connection between interior comfort and outdoor living.
The outdoor living spaces are equally intentional, featuring a serene lakefront pool and generous gathering areas, all strategically elevated and oriented to capture stunning sunrise and sunset views across Johns Lake.
Completing the estate is a 3,600 square foot detached barn, custom designed, kitted, and shipped by DC Structures of Portland, Oregon. This heavy timber structure includes an expansive central garage, workshop, private office, and a large covered patio with summer kitchen, offering a private retreat designed for work, hobbies, and leisure.
Currently under construction, Maison Joie at the Pointe is being thoughtfully brought to life with a strong focus on quality craftsmanship, refined design, and enduring performance. The home reflects Hardwick General Contracting’s commitment to building residences that are both functional and timeless, while setting a high standard for construction excellence.
Hardwick General Contracting is honored to be part of the 2026 event and looks forward to sharing the completed home during the Parade.
Additional details will be released as construction progresses.
Stay tuned to see how this extraordinary home is brought to life.
