Welcome to your dream home! Enter this property through the charming front garden courtyard, complete with custom plantings, and prepare to be amazed by the stunning views that await you. The disappearing sliders in the great room open up to create an incredible 16-foot-wide panorama of the pool area, showcasing the serene lake and pristine golf course beyond. The great room is designed for versatility, offering ample space for both casual and formal living areas. It also includes room for a formal dining area, though the current owners have creatively used this space to accommodate a grand piano. Adjacent to this, you’ll discover a chef’s dream kitchen. Designed and crafted by the owner, a master carpenter, the kitchen features custom-built cabinets and a center island made from a single, full slab of quartz measuring an impressive 5x10 feet. The kitchen is further enhanced by upgraded stainless steel appliances, an 8x7-foot walk-in pantry—perfect for storing everything you need to host large gatherings—and a cozy breakfast nook with bay windows that offer picturesque views of the pool, lake, and golf course, often visited by graceful Snowy Egrets. Connected to the kitchen is a casual family room, an ideal space for relaxing, snacking, and watching TV. The home boasts three fully remodeled bathrooms, each updated with new frameless shower doors, vanities, and modern toilets. The luxurious master suite is truly a retreat, spanning 21x17 feet and featuring sliding doors that lead directly to the pool area. Step outside to the recently resurfaced pool area, adorned with elegant stamped concrete. The lanai includes a built-in summer kitchen and a new cage with large, unobstructed picture windows that frame the breathtaking views of the lake and golf course. The pool area also features see-through hurricane shutters that can be controlled remotely via your smartphone. This home is not only beautiful but also highly efficient. The owner has invested in 55 solar panels and two backup batteries, a $147,000 upgrade, resulting in an average electric bill of just $37 per month. Additionally, the property includes a private well, minimizing water costs. The garage is equipped with an electric car charger, and the driveway is scheduled to be upgraded with brick pavers in March. In addition, the roof was replaced in 2023 and the outside completely repainted in 2024. With every detail thoughtfully designed, this home offers unparalleled comfort, luxury, and sustainability. It’s truly a property that has it all—and it’s ready for you to call it home.
