The open-concept floor plan is centered around a beautifully appointed CHEF'S KITCHEN featuring GE Monogram appliances, a built-in refrigerator, natural gas cooktop, quartz countertops, extensive cabinetry, a striking full-height backsplash, under-cabinet and up-lighting, an impressive kitchen island, and a dedicated beverage center with wine/beverage fridge. The great room serves as the heart of the home, highlighted by an ELECTRIC FIREPLACE WITH A SLEEK, STACKED-STONE SURROUND, custom glass display shelving, with accent lighting that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere day or night. The private office provides a stylish and functional workspace, while the LUXURIOUS PRIMARY SUITE offers a peaceful retreat with spa-inspired bath accommodations and serene views of the water and sliding doors provide direct access to the lanai. Two additional bedrooms and baths provide comfort and privacy for family and guests. With no carpet anywhere in the home, every space reflects the home's clean, upscale design.

The EXPANSIVE WATER BACKDROP creates a wonderful sense of openness and privacy, making the outdoor living space feel truly special. A rough-in for a future outdoor kitchen provides additional opportunity to customize the space to your lifestyle. Designed with both luxury and functionality in mind, additional features include IMPACT GLASS, a whole-house GENERATOR, natural gas service, designer finishes, and an oversized 3-car garage featuring a polyaspartic floor coating, extensive built-in storage cabinetry, and a dedicated mini-split air-conditioning system. Located in highly sought-after Lakehouse Cove at Waterside, residents enjoy resort-style amenities and the convenience of being just a short walk or golf-cart ride from Waterside Place, where dining, shopping, entertainment, waterfront parks, community events, and the popular farmers market create one of the most vibrant lifestyles in Lakewood Ranch.
